Meili are focused on establishing a delivery service using robots of different variants and applications to create cost effective and sustainable solutions for both business' and consumers.


Imagine if you could order a take-away from a restaurant and it arrives to your door cheaper than ever. Think about your groceries showing up in a robot at the time most convenient to you, even after hours.

Does this sound like an option you would like?

We are looking for an all-rounder engineer who can overlook the development of the robots internally and externally. You will be heavily involved with the design, manufacture methods, and engineering of the robots. 

Taking the spec sheet of the robots, you will need to carry out the calculations of the component requirements and build a base design upon that. Your understanding of dynamics, electronics , and software will be crucial here to ensure the robot will be able to operate in the application condition.

You will also be involved with checking and giving feedback to project partner's development of our robots, and communicate with 3rd party suppliers to ensure the right parts and systems are delivered.

 

You would work directly for the founder and alongside him in multiple tasks. 

Your duties would be to:

  • Develop designs and calculations of the robots based on the application spec sheet.
  • Produce spec sheets and select the correct components for the robot based on the application selected.
  • Oversee and carry out the robot development, from concept prototype to final version.
  • Communicate with project partners and 3rd party suppliers. Ensure correct development and parts are delivered.
  • Be able to produce detailed engineering plans and documentation of the robots.

 

Some requirements:

  • Several years experience in engineering, with skills in electronics, CAD, software, and manufacturing.
  • Own computer and with CAD software.
  • Fluent in English and Danish.
  • Previous work in small teams.
  • Flexibility to work on multiple tasks which aren't related to your position.
  • General understanding of robot technologies and delivery concepts.

 

Position is unpaid initially until funding is secured.

Equity negotiable, though no handouts is to be expected from us.

Meili Robots

Meili FMS is a fleet manager for mobile robots with a vendor-agnostic approach. It enables operators to collate their diverse fleet onto one platform. By using Meili FMS, our users can finally use their mobile robot fleet to its full potential by orchestrating their fleet as a collective, regardless of the robot’s application, brand, or type. Our main mission is to eliminate interoperability pain points that have started to cast a shadow over the robotics industry. With more businesses adopting robots to carry out inventory management, material handling, and other applications, fleets are becoming more diverse. Robot manufacturers can hardly keep up with this growing demand, which means that companies will be deploying robots from various brands — with different operating systems. This is where the problem arises. Currently, robot manufacturers develop their own FMS, which means minimal to no correlation between systems. In other words, the robots cannot communicate amongst each other, causing delays in operations, accidents, and collisions — ultimately increasing operation costs while diminishing safety and efficiency substantially. Frightfully, this problem may cripple the whole supply chain, with business owners starting to question their decisions on expanding operations with robots — as a result, stagnating the entire mobile robot market. There is a need for a universal third-party solution that can bridge the gap and enable seamless operation for the robots to function collectively rather than individually. At the same time, by having an overview of the whole fleet, robot management becomes much more effective. And that’s where we come in, with several important features: automated traffic control, smart task allocation algorithms, operator analytics, and unified mapping. With Meili FMS’s automated traffic control feature, robots in the same environment will operate in a safer and more organised manner — not only between individual robots but also between them and human-operated vehicles. Too often do robots navigate the facilities without a payload as the current solutions do not facilitate task queuing effectively, therefore wasting energy by needless travel or lengthy idle time. Using smart tasking algorithms, Meili FMS can help improve companies’ sustainability records as the robot fleets will no longer operate without a payload and wasting any energy. Furthermore, our pricing plans are very accessible to early-stage or small businesses. This will definitely lower the entry barriers, allowing businesses of any size to start investing in robots and automation, which facilitates the growth of the robotics industry.
