Tech Transformation is building a new capability to evaluate the deployability of Amazon Robotics products virtually — before the first physical prototype is built. This role is the founding engineer for that capability. You will use Tecnomatix Process Simulate to build physics-based simulations of field installation processes: modeling rigid body kinematics to validate assembly sequences, analyzing force and load distributions during lifting and rigging operations, and verifying that mechanical interfaces achieve required fits under real-world tolerance conditions. You will also use CETOL 6σ (SolidWorks-integrated) to perform 3D tolerance stack-up analysis on critical installation interfaces, quantifying the probability of fit under real-world dimensional variation and feeding results back to Hardware as design constraints. Your work will directly influence hardware design decisions by providing data-driven feedback on spatial fit, tool accessibility, assembly feasibility, tolerance risks, and ergonomics — shifting deployment engineering from reactive to proactive. Key job responsibilities Build and execute assembly simulations of robotic workcells using Tecnomatix Process Simulate to evaluate installation sequences, tool clearance, material movement paths, and assembly feasibility Develop scalable simulation workflows and templates for DfD reviews across multiple product programs Review hardware CAD models against deployment requirements, providing actionable DfD feedback at Prototype and Alpha phases Build and maintain a 3D library of common deployment tools (alignment tools, impact drills, rigging equipment, forklifts) with spatial operating envelopes for automated accessibility analysis Collaborate with Reality Capture engineers to integrate building envelope data (VRC dimensions, MHE clearance, floor flatness, column positions) into deployment simulations Perform 3D dimensional variation analysis (DVA) using CETOL 6σ to model tolerance chains across installation interfaces, quantifying fit probability and identifying design-driven deployment risk Partner with Hardware, Tech Deploy, and Manufacturing teams to establish DfD as a core accountability within TfX Design and execute field experiments to characterize construction tolerances (floor flatness, drilling accuracy, MHE as-built accuracy) and translate findings into design guidelines for Hardware About the team Tech Transformation (TfX) is part of the Global Engineering organization within Amazon Robotics. We enable the deployment of robotic solutions into Amazon's fulfillment network, working across a range of technologies from autonomous mobile robots to robotic workcells and automated fulfillment systems. BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
3+ years of working in mechanical engineering or equivalent experience Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or an equivalent field Experience in 3D CAD Experience with assembly process planning, DfA/DfM, or manufacturing engineering Experience with tolerance analysis tools (CETOL 6σ, 3DCS, or equivalent) PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
