Senior Mechanical Design Engineer — Siemens NX & Teamcenter

Verustruct • Torrance, CA

22h • Onsite

About The Position

Verustruct is hiring a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to lead detailed mechanical design and CAD integration for its robotic construction platform. The role owns the digital definition of machines in Siemens NX and Teamcenter, including complex parts, mechanisms, drawings, and an evolving assembly containing more than 10,000 components. The engineer will keep assemblies usable as the platform grows, resolve subsystem interfaces, communicate motion and assembly sequences, and produce clear manufacturing documentation. The work connects design intent to fabricated hardware, with involvement through fabrication, assembly, and testing.

The engineer will collaborate with mechanical, electrical, robotics, and manufacturing teammates. The position is full-time and on-site in Torrance, California.

Requirements

• Substantial professional mechanical design experience, typically 5 or more years, with deep, recent experience in Siemens NX.
• Demonstrated ownership of large, complex assemblies with thousands of components and multiple contributing designers.
• Practical Teamcenter experience managing engineering data, revisions, product structures, and design releases.
• A portfolio of designs that progressed from CAD and drawings to fabricated and assembled hardware.
• Strong understanding of mechanical interfaces, fits, tolerances, GD&T, and manufacturing processes.
• Experience designing machined parts, sheet-metal components, weldments, or mechanisms and resolving issues directly with manufacturing teams.
• Ability to build and communicate mechanism motion, assembly sequences, and maintenance access.
• Careful configuration management and documentation habits, with judgment to keep processes proportionate to a fast-moving development team.
• A degree in mechanical engineering, mechanical engineering technology, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Nice To Haves

• Relocation to the Los Angeles / Torrance area; relocation support is available for exceptional candidates.

Responsibilities

• Design components and mechanical assemblies in Siemens NX for robotic formwork, locomotion, material handling, consolidation, and related construction systems.
• Own the organization and integration of a top-level assembly with more than 10,000 components, including subsystem interfaces, assembly constraints, configurations, reference geometry, and clearance envelopes.
• Develop robust modeling practices that make designs straightforward to modify, reuse, review, and hand off to other engineers.
• Maintain large-assembly performance using appropriate loading strategies, simplified representations, reference sets, and disciplined model organization.
• Manage day-to-day NX and Teamcenter engineering workflows, including part numbering, CAD and drawing revisions, product structures, bills of materials, release processes, and engineering changes.
• Create subsystem motion studies, mechanism animations, exploded views, and assembly sequences to communicate operation and identify interference, access, and serviceability issues.
• Produce manufacturing drawings with functional datum schemes, appropriate GD&T, and tolerance requirements grounded in manufacturing, assembly, and inspection needs.
• Partner with engineers, machinists, fabricators, and suppliers on DFM/DFA, tolerance stack-ups, material selection, and practical fabrication methods.
• Resolve discrepancies between CAD and physical hardware and incorporate lessons from builds, tests, and field use into controlled design updates.
• Establish reusable templates, standard components, and lightweight design practices to help the engineering team work faster.

Benefits

• Health insurance: Silver PPO plan, 80% company-paid.
• Optional dental and vision coverage.
• 401(k) plan with 4% employer match.
• Flexible PTO policy.
• Observed federal holidays.
• Relocation support for exceptional candidates relocating to the Los Angeles / Torrance area.
• Opportunity to help lead mechanical engineering for a venture-backed robotics company tackling housing affordability.
