Here at Humanoid, we believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and secure humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND‑01 - our rapidly developed humanoid platform being deployed in real industrial environments - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.

About the Role We are looking for a Senior Prototype Engineer to drive the development, assembly, integration, and validation of advanced humanoid robotic systems, with a particular focus on robotic hands, arms, end-effectors, and complex electromechanical mechanisms.

This role combines deep hands‑on engineering expertise with proven technical leadership and team management experience. You will take ownership of complex prototype development activities, guide engineering execution, and work closely with Mechanical, Electrical, Embedded Software, and Controls teams to transform innovative designs into reliable, high‑performance robotic systems.

We are looking for someone who has successfully led and developed technical teams, established efficient prototyping processes, and delivered complex hardware projects in fast‑moving engineering environments.

As our Vancouver robotics operations continue to grow, this position offers the opportunity to progress into a broader technical leadership role, helping shape our prototyping capabilities, engineering standards, and team development.

Your work will directly influence the technical quality, development speed, and scalability of Humanoid’s next‑generation robotic platforms.

What Makes This Role Exciting

Take ownership of complex humanoid robot prototyping, including dexterous hands, arms, actuators,



and advanced electromechanical assemblies.

Combine hands‑on engineering with technical leadership, guiding complex prototype development from concept through validation.

Apply your previous team management and mentoring experience to strengthen engineering execution and build effective prototyping practices.

Solve challenging problems in robotic manipulation, precision actuation, sensor integration, and hardware‑software interaction.

Collaborate with a multidisciplinary robotics team spanning mechanical, electrical, embedded software, and controls.

Play a key role in scaling Humanoid’s prototyping capabilities, with potential to grow into a broader team leadership position.

What You’ll Do

Lead the development, assembly, integration, and commissioning of complex robotic prototypes, including hands, arms, end‑effectors, actuators, sensors, and electromechanical subsystems.

Take ownership of prototype development from initial build through calibration, testing, debugging, validation, and design iteration.

Provide technical leadership and direction to engineers and technicians, helping establish priorities, resolve engineering challenges, and maintain execution quality.

Apply previous team management experience to mentor technical team members, develop capabilities, and establish effective engineering workflows.





Coordinate prototype development activities, ensuring clear technical priorities, efficient resource allocation, and alignment with engineering milestones.

Drive advanced hardware troubleshooting, root‑cause analysis, and failure investigation across mechanical, electrical, and embedded systems.

Oversee the integration, calibration, and performance optimization of actuators, encoders, force/torque sensors, tactile sensors, and robotic control interfaces.

Partner with Mechanical, Electrical, Embedded Software, and Controls teams to identify design limitations, integration risks, and opportunities for performance improvement.

Lead and contribute to technical design reviews, providing practical engineering feedback on assembly, reliability, serviceability, and manufacturability.

Establish and improve prototype assembly procedures, integration workflows, testing methodologies, and validation standards.

Drive rapid prototyping and engineering iteration, ensuring timely resolution of technical blockers and efficient development cycles.

Support system‑level testing, performance characterization, reliability assessments, and prototype‑to‑production transitions.

Develop and maintain technical documentation, including assembly instructions, test procedures, troubleshooting guides, SOPs, and engineering reports.

Collaborate with engineering and program leadership to plan prototype builds, track technical progress, manage risks, and communicate development priorities.

Work closely with teams across Vancouver, London, and Boston, supporting cross‑site integration and technical collaboration.

Promote a safe, organized, and efficient prot
