NavLive is a spinout from the University ofOxford backed by awardwinning technology and algorithms. We aredeveloping realtime spatial AI solutions for the construction andgeospatial industries.
We use realtimemultisensor fusion and highprecision positioning technology tobuild 3D models of indoor and outdoor environments in realtime. Ourtech can infer what has changed and provide insights to facilityowners or site decisionmakers. We want to recruit a hardware designengineer to help us develop our products and execute R&Dprojects with partners in the abovementionedsectors.
Are you interested in joining a rapidlygrowing startup to develop advanced technology which willrevolutionise how companies monitor their assets make decisions andmeasure the realworld
Tasks
Yourrole as a Hardware Design Engineer willinvolve:
* Using yourexpertise in computeraided design (CAD) software to createinnovative designs for handheld and robotic sensor and mappingsystems
* Ensuring costeffective lowvolumeproduction by employing Design for Manufacturability (DFM) andDesign for Assembly (DFA) principles
* Usingrapid prototyping to produce prototypes test and improve ondesigns
* To produce bills of materialsspecifying components and potentialsuppliers
* Produce assembly drawings and detaildrawings specifying materials tolerances and assembly notes foroutsourcing
* Testing of prototypes withcustomers including onsite
* Setup and testsensor drivers calibration and comms using a linux operatingsystem.
Requirements
Keyrequirements for thisrole:
* Expertise workingwith CAD software (i.e. SolidWorks Fusion360 NX) and a portfolio ofprevious design projects
* Experience with 3Dprinting and additive manufacturing for rapidprototyping
* Professional experience programmingwith C Python.
* Solid understanding of DFM andDFA principles with the ability to design for efficientmanufacturing and assembly
* Product developmentexpertise
The followingare desirable skills andtraits:
* Familiaritywith electronic systems and circuit designincluding analog anddigital circuits microcontrollers andsensors
* Experience designing PCBs with toolssuch as Altium Eagle KiCad
* Experiencedeveloping handheld and robotic sensing devices orsensors
* Experience with robustness testingknowledge of design validation techniques including acceleratedlife testing and environmental testing to ensure the productsreliability in various operatingconditions
* Experience with linux cameracalibration routines and sensor communication methods (ethernetUARTRS232).
Benefits
Forthe successful candidate we canoffer:
* 20 days of paidannual leave plus 8 bank holidays
* Salarypension exchange scheme
* A dynamic fastmovingwork environment based in centralOxford
* Onthejob training in cuttingedgerobotics and AI
* Full support for relocationcosts including visa sponsorship asrequired
* Annual performance and salaryreview
* Employee shareoptions
Flexibility
Whilethis role will require some onsite and inperson time much of whatwe do is structured for hybrid work. We more highly value excellentwork rather than an onsite work environment.
Thisrole assumes a typical 37.5 working week centred around a set ofcore working hours but we can offer extra flexibility forcandidates with specificconstraints.
Diversity andInclusion
Our company thrives ondiverse inputs from people of different backgrounds skillset andpoints of view. We embrace individuality and aim to offer theflexibility demanded by the modern digitalworkforce.
Connecting physical todigital.
Realtime solutions for the constructionindustry.
