This position is responsible for designing and developing innovative mechatronic solutions to optimize manufacturing processes within Hyundai. The role involves researching, developing, and deploying the most suitable mechatronic system strategies and solutions, including system designs and necessary peripherals. The incumbent will collaborate with a talented team of researchers and engineers, leveraging expertise in mechatronic system design, development, testing, and analysis to push the boundaries of what the proposed solution can achieve.

• Lead the design of bespoke mechatronic system solutions within Hyundai.
• Collaborate and communicate with cross-functional teams, including business owners and robotics engineers, to formulate requirements, design, and test custom mechatronic system solutions.
• Initiate new ideas, strategies, and concepts for bespoke mechatronic systems.
• Define specifications for custom mechatronic systems to meet factory manufacturing process requirements.
• Develop mechatronic system designs that meet specifications while considering cost, manufacturability, and time to delivery.
• Engage and manage external collaborators and vendors to scope projects, evaluate system proposals, coordinate work tasks, advise on standards and design, control costs, and review deliverables in a timely manner.
• Regularly review plans, progress, designs, and test results of bespoke mechatronic systems with business owners and stakeholders at all levels.
• Create and manage 3D CAD models, engineering drawings, and schematic diagrams for mechatronic systems from concept through development to deployment.
• Perform hand calculations and/or computer simulations to validate designs throughout the system development process, supported by lab-based testing and validation.
• Develop and implement electronic or control circuits and algorithms for electromechanical and pneumatic systems.
• Build and assemble proof-of-concept (PoC) prototypes, minimum viable product (MVP) prototypes, and deployment-ready systems using rapid prototyping and conventional manufacturing methods. Integrate essential mechanisms, sensors, actuators, and electronics into these prototypes.
• Develop test plans, create test rigs, conduct experiments, and analyze test results for bespoke mechatronic systems to ensure compliance with specifications.
• Document technical reports, system manuals, and file patents.

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, or a relevant discipline, with more than 2 years of mechatronics design and development experience.
• Sound understanding of mechanisms, sensors, and mechatronic components.
• Demonstrated expertise in mechatronic engineering design principles, hands-on prototyping, practical and methodical product/technology development, and a pragmatic approach to balancing cost and value.
• Proven ability to deliver innovative design solutions with strong problem-solving, analytical, and technical skills.
• Experience managing multiple projects with effective organizational and follow-up skills and attention to detail.
• Strong ability to plan, prioritize tasks, and coordinate work with others.
• Excellent interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage professionally and responsively with internal and external stakeholders at all levels.
• Proficiency in CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo, NX).
• Knowledge of control systems (e.g., PID, PWM, PLC), sensors, actuators (electromechanical/pneumatic), and electronics.
• Ability to program microcontrollers and design basic electrical circuits.
• Experience with a wide variety of manufacturing processes, including low, medium, and high-volume production.
• Familiarity with industry safety standards for machinery and robots is a plus.
