Our client is seeking a hands-on Senior Mechatronics / Hardware Integration Engineer to support the development and validation of electro-mechanical products used in real-world, customer-facing environments.

This role combines mechanical design with practical hardware integration and troubleshooting. You will work directly with prototypes and production units, integrating sensors and peripherals, wiring and instrumenting devices, collecting data, and diagnosing system behaviour. The position works closely with electrical and firmware teams but requires the ability to independently validate and debug hardware in a lab environment.

This is best suited to an engineer who enjoys working with physical devices, testing systems, and solving real-world hardware problems — not just designing components.

What You’ll Do

- Integrate electro-mechanical assemblies including sensors, cameras, scanners, and embedded peripherals
- Wire and instrument prototypes and development units for testing and validation
- Collect and interpret hardware data from sensors and system outputs
- Troubleshoot hardware behaviour using lab tools (multimeter, oscilloscope, serial interfaces, diagnostic utilities)
- Support root-cause investigation of system failures and intermittent issues
- Prototype, test, and refine mechanical and mechatronic subsystems
- Work closely with electrical and firmware engineers during integration and debugging




- Support manufacturing readiness and assist technicians during builds and deployment
- Prepare documentation, BOMs, and test procedures

What We’re Looking For

- Degree in Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, or related discipline
- Experience working directly with hardware prototypes and integrated systems
- Comfortable wiring sensors and peripherals and validating device operation
- Ability to read basic electrical diagrams and work alongside electrical engineers
- Experience interpreting sensor outputs (digital or analog signals)
- Hands‑on troubleshooting and root‑cause analysis of hardware behaviour
- Solid mechanical design understanding and proficiency in SolidWorks (or similar)
- Comfortable working in a lab and hands‑on development environment

Nice to Have

- Experience with embedded devices, instrumentation, or hardware R&D; environments
- Familiarity with serial communication, microcontrollers, or device interfaces
- Experience using oscilloscopes, multimeters, or diagnostic tools
- Basic scripting (Python or similar) for hardware testing or data capture
- Background in robotics, automation, kiosks, medical devices, or test equipment

Why Join Us

- Work directly on real products deployed globally
- Highly hands‑on engineering workplace
- Exposure to mechanical, electrical, and firmware integration
- Small engineering team with broad ownership and technical variety
- Clear path to senior technical responsibility
