Medical Robotics jobs

Our client is a Singapore-based applied R&D lab building an open-source humanoid robot platform and the full software stack behind it. This role owns the form language and physical identity of the robot and its wider hardware family — enclosures, surface treatment, ergonomics, CMF (color, material, finish) and packaging — translating that vision into parts that actually manufacture, assemble and hold up in the real world.

What You'll Do

Own industrial design across the hardware family: form, proportion, ergonomics and CMF, from concept through production-ready enclosures and structural aesthetics

Turn mechanical and electrical constraints into clean, intentional design that doesn't hide the engineering

Prototype fast in foam, print and machined parts, then iterate directly on real hardware to test design intent

Own the CMF specification process — material selection, surface finish standards, color systems and supplier engagement

Own design for manufacturing and assembly alongside mechanical engineering: DFM reviews, tolerance stack-ups, fastening, serviceability and assembly sequencing

Design human-facing details — grips, handles, access panels, indicators and anything a person touches or reads

Shape the packaging, unboxing experience and user-facing documentation for hardware kits and dev units

Maintain design consistency across the hardware product family as it expands

Core Key Skills

4+ years shipping physical products — consumer electronics, robotics, medical devices, or similarly complex hardware

Strong portfolio of shipped physical products, ideally complex electromechanical hardware

Deep industrial design fundamentals: form, proportion, ergonomics and CMF

Strong proficiency in 3D modeling/surfacing (Alias, Rhino, SolidWorks or equivalent) and rendering (KeyShot or similar)

Real DFM/DFA experience and working knowledge of manufacturing processes: injection molding, sheet metal, die casting, surface finishing

Experience working directly with mechanical engineers and contract manufacturers in a fast, iterative environment

Comfort moving from sketch to prototype to production without needing a large team around you

Nice to Have

Experience designing for humanoid/legged robots, cobots, or other electromechanical systems

Experience taking a product from zero to first production run

Hands-on shop skills: 3D printing, machining, moldmaking and finishing

Interest in open-source hardware communities
