About Rebel :

You might be wondering why a restaurant company is looking for hardware engineers. Think for a few moments about companies like Amazon (retail) AirBnB (hospitality), Uber (taxis) that have disrupted business as usual in their sectors. Technology was a key enabler for these companies- growth. As a hardware example, observe how Tesla has shaken up the automobile industry, forcing giants like Toyota and Volkswagen to rethink their entire product roadmap. Technological innovations like electric drivetrains, batteries and connectivity were key factors in the success of their cars, along with radical designs and a superior user experience. The only large industry where technology has yet to make a similar impact is the Food industry, where the largest players are still predominantly offline - McDonalds being a prime example.

We at Rebel Foods are working to change the operating paradigm of this 500 year old industry. With 12 brands (Faasos, Behrouz Biryani, Oven Story Pizza and more), 3000+ internet restaurants, 350+ cloud kitchens, spread across 45 cities, 4 countries and growing, we are the world's largest and fastest-growing Internet Restaurant / Cloud Kitchen company. Our mission is to transform the way food is prepared and delivered, achieving a consistently great customer experience. - offline or internet.

You will be responsible for detailed engineering design, risk and tolerance analysis, and ensuring the design is manufacturable. You will also work closely with external manufacturing vendors during the design, assembly and testing stages to debug issues and drive continuous improvements. You should be comfortable with high levels of ambiguity, and working in a fast-paced and highly collaborative environment.

Desired Background:

1. Machine design: 3D CAD, DFx, GD&T, FMEA

2. Software: SolidWorks/CATIA/ProE, Proteus/Eagle, MATLAB, Simulink, LabVIEW etc.

3. Fluid mechanics, thermal modeling

4. Materials and manufacturing methods

5. Knowledge of actuators such as BLDC motors, Servo motors, Stepper motors, linear actuators, robotic arm, etc.

6. Robot kinematics and mechanism synthesis

7. Analog and digital sensors and their calibration

8. Knowledge of MCUs and PLCs
