Key Responsibilities Lead the overall architecture design and technical requirement breakdown of planetary reducers for robotic joints, including reduction stages, reduction ratios, configurations, gear parameters, and power flow design. Design sun gears, planet gears, ring gears, planet carriers, shafts, and supporting bearings, and optimize strength, stiffness, durability, efficiency, and weight. Perform gear contact stress and bending strength analysis, load distribution analysis, transmission error analysis, backlash optimization, and gear microgeometry modification to improve noise, vibration, shock, and dynamic performance. Define lubrication, sealing, materials, heat treatment, surface strengthening, and tolerance systems to achieve high load capacity, high efficiency, low wear, and consistent mass-production quality. Drive the integrated design of the planetary reducer with frameless motors, encoders, brakes, torque sensors, housings, and output structures to optimize overall dimensions, weight, and packaging space. Develop DV/PV validation plans and coordinate testing for efficiency, backlash, torsional stiffness, temperature rise, NVH, shock, durability, and environmental performance. Lead root cause analysis and drive corrective actions for identified failures. Establish platform-level design standards, calculation methodologies, technical databases, DFMEA, critical characteristics, and design review processes for planetary reducers. Collaborate with suppliers, purchasing, manufacturing, and quality teams on process reviews, DFM/DFA, cost optimization, process capability development, and mass production launch. What We Are Looking For Bachelor's degree or above in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Mechatronics, Precision Mechanical Engineering, or a related field. A Master's degree or above is preferred. At least 5 years of R&D experience in gear transmission systems or reducers, with hands-on product development experience in planetary reducers or precision planetary gear systems. Strong knowledge of planetary transmission principles, gear geometry, strength and life calculations, load sharing, backlash control, bearing selection, and shaft system design. Familiar with gear materials, heat treatment, gear grinding/honing, surface strengthening, lubrication and sealing, gear accuracy grades, and major failure modes. Proficient in Creo or equivalent 3D CAD tools, with hands-on experience in at least one transmission analysis tool such as KISSsoft, Romax, or MASTA. Experience with finite element analysis tools such as ANSYS. Ability to independently manage requirement breakdown, concept development, detailed design, engineering drawings and tolerance definition, prototype debugging, validation analysis, and design improvements. Strong structured problem-solving, cross-functional collaboration, and technical communication skills. Ability to read technical documentation in English and handle routine written communication in English. Preferred Qualifications End-to-end project experience in precision planetary reducers, from concept design through mass production launch. Experience with robotic rotary joints, collaborative robot actuators, servo systems, or compact high-torque transmission products. Experience developing reducers with low backlash, high torsional stiffness, high efficiency, low NVH, or high shock-load capability. Familiarity with the integration requirements of motors, encoders, brakes, torque sensors, and output bearings in robotic joints. Familiarity with APQP, DFMEA, DVP&R, 8D, GD&T, and automotive-grade product development and quality processes. Experience in patent development, supplier technical management, platform planning, or leading a small technical team.
