Company: 

At Arrive AI (Nasdaq: ARAI), we're not just building products—we're transforming the future of the Autonomous Last Mile™ (ALM). Over a decade ago, we started with a pioneering vision and patents for the first smart mailbox for drone delivery. Through systematic research, development, and deep customer collaboration, we've evolved to today where we deploy Arrive Points—a type of smart locker and mini-cross-docks for frictionless drone, robotic, and courier delivery and pickup, utilized from medical supplies to meals to e-commerce. Arrive AI is now growing and investing to scale an ALM network and platform of the future for all autonomous delivery providers, services, and customers. Arrive AI is the intelligent choice for the last inch of the Autonomous Last Mile™. 

About Us: 

We move fast, balancing strategy with opportunity. We are merit-based, valuing integrity, innovation, and treating others as we want to be treated. At Arrive AI, every employee is an equity holder and a business owner. Our shared vision, ownership, and culture fuel our mission to revolutionize autonomous delivery. 

Product Team 

You’ll be joining Arrive AI’s Product Team to revolutionize Autonomous Last Mile (ALM) logistics by transforming over a decade of research, design, and customer collaboration into the world’s first autonomous logistics network and platform. Our fast-paced skunkworks team rapidly iterates, prototypes, and develops next-generation Arrive Point units, networks, and AI-powered platforms. By integrating cutting-edge hardware, robotics, IoT, software, data, AI, and manufacturing, we’re driving a bold roadmap for ALM innovation. Based in Fishers, IN, we offer a unique opportunity to do your life’s best work, shape the future, and share in the success. 

 The Role: 

We’re seeking a Mechanical Engineer to support the design, development, and testing of Arrive Points — the next generation of smart lockers and autonomous delivery infrastructure. You’ll contribute to mechanical designs, CAD modeling, and simulation, working alongside senior engineers to bring innovative concepts into real-world, production-ready hardware

This role is perfect for an early-career engineer who’s hands-on and digitally fluent — ready to use CAD, simulation tools, and digital prototypes to help accelerate development and improve product quality. 

 What You’ll Do: 

  • Design Digitally First: Contribute to CAD models, assemblies, and digital prototypes for Arrive Point hardware. 
  • Run Simulations: Assist in FEA, thermal, and motion analysis to validate designs virtually before prototyping. 
  • Support Integrations: Help ensure mechanical systems align with electrical, robotics, and software components
  • Prototype & Test: Participate in building and testing prototypes, gathering data to refine designs. 
  • Work with Actuators & Sensors: Assist in integrating actuators, hinges, locks, and sensors into product assemblies. 
  • Assist with Manufacturing Prep: Contribute to design-for-manufacture efforts, adjusting CAD for scalability and cost targets. 
  • Collaborate & Document: Work with senior engineers and maintain organized CAD files, simulation records, and test documentation

What We're Looking For:

  • Engineering Experience: 2+ years in mechanical engineering (or strong internship/co-op experience in hard-tech). 
  • CAD & Simulation Skills: Proficiency with CAD (SolidWorks, Fusion 360, etc.) and experience with simulation tools (FEA, motion, or thermal). 
  • Preferred Exposure: Familiarity with robotics hardware, actuators, HVAC components, battery integration, and power management is a strong plus. 
  • System Awareness: Interest in how AI-driven automation and multi-zonal control influence mechanical design choices. 
  • Learning Mindset: Hands-on, curious, and ready to iterate quickly
  • Team Player: Good communicator, able to collaborate with senior engineers and multidisciplinary teams
  • Adaptability: Thrives in a startup environment where development is fast-paced and digital-first

 Additional: 

  • Expect to travel up to 5 days per month. 
  • Responsibilities include all other duties as assigned.

Compensation: 

  • Salary is market competitive with high equity incentive – be an owner and grow with Arrive AI.
