MECHANICAL ROBOTICS ENGINEER (Autonomous Robotics)

Come build the world's first autonomous one-wheeled robot

Rollo Robotics is developing next-generation autonomous robotics built for continuous 24/7 operation in real-world outdoor environments. At the center of our work is 1ROLLO — the world's first autonomous one-wheeled robotic platform.

Our technology combines a patented stabilization system, autonomous navigation, and a unique one-wheeled architecture to create something the world has never seen before.

We are looking for a Mechanical Robotics Engineer to help design and develop the physical architecture of 1ROLLO — from early concepts and 3D models to prototypes and production-ready solutions.

If you want to build real robots, not just drawings, and see your work come to life, this could be your next challenge.

What you'll be doing

• Design and develop the mechanical architecture of 1ROLLO

• Create detailed 3D models and assemblies in SolidWorks

• Develop core robotic components, including:

– chassis systems

– enclosures

– mechanical assemblies

– sensor mounting solutions

– electronics layouts

– cooling systems

– waterproof solutions for outdoor environments

• Integrate motors, batteries, control systems, and sensors into the robot architecture

• Work closely with software, electronics, and AI teams

• Build prototypes and participate in testing

• Select suitable materials and manufacturing methods

• Optimize designs for:

– weight

– durability

– cost efficiency

– manufacturability

• Support the transition from prototype to mass production

What we're looking for

✔ Strong SolidWorks skills

✔ Experience designing mechanical systems or robotic platforms

✔ CAD/CAM knowledge

✔ Understanding of manufacturing technologies (CNC, 3D printing, sheet metal, injection molding, etc.)

✔ Basic understanding of structural calculations and mechanical analysis

✔ Understanding of motors, gear systems, and moving mechanisms

✔ Strong systems thinking and problem-solving skills

Bonus points if you have experience with:

• robotics

• outdoor equipment development

• battery systems and thermal management

• rapid prototyping

• FEA simulations

• aluminum, composite, or lightweight structures

• manufacturing scale-up

You'll fit our team if you:

• Want to build something that does not yet exist in the world

• Enjoy solving complex engineering challenges

• Love seeing your ideas become real working products

• Take ownership and responsibility for results

• Want to create technology with global impact

• Are already based in Estonia and can communicate in Estonian at a conversational level.

What we offer

• The opportunity to develop the world's first autonomous one-wheeled robotic platform

• A small, fast-moving, and ambitious deep-tech team

• A significant impact on product development and technical decisions

• Competitive compensation and potential stock option program

• The opportunity to grow alongside a global robotics company

• Hands-on work with real prototypes, testing, and future production systems
