Mechanical Design Engineer, Robotics Sustaining Engineering

At Meta, we're building the future of human connection and the technology that enables it. This means continuously inventing and developing technologies for the next generation of experiences.

To continue our efforts in the path to AGI, and as we move closer to a future with intelligent robots and advanced AI models, we're hiring talent across a broad range of disciplines from robotics hardware to system software, machine perception, and artificial intelligence. These crucial projects and initiatives taken on by this team have never been done before, so you have a rare opportunity to help us create new ways people connect around the world.

The Meta Robotics Hardware team is seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer focused on sustaining engineering to own the design health and continuous improvement of our humanoid robot hardware after initial release. You will be the primary engineering contact for failure investigation, corrective design action, and design-for-manufacture improvements driven by real-world feedback from our fabrication shops and assembly teams. This is a hands-on role that lives at the boundary between the design office and the shop floor — you'll spend as much time reviewing failed parts and assembly pain points as you do in CAD. This role will be part of a ME team responsible for concept development, analytical modeling, prototype design, first article build, fabrication, vendor management, and testing. Candidates should be comfortable working in a high ambiguity, fast paced environment where full system requirements are seldom known. This team is dedicated to building hardware that enables learning through data collection and system testing.
