HMI and Ergonomics Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop the HMI of the exoskeleton, including the user interface, display, and feedback systems.
  • Collaborate with other engineers and designers to ensure that the HMI integrates seamlessly with other subsystems.
  • Conduct user studies and feedback sessions to optimize the HMI and ensure user satisfaction and usability.
  • Design and develop the ergonomic aspects of the exoskeleton, including the user interface, control mechanisms, and adjustability features.
  • Test and validate the HMI and ergonomic aspects of the exoskeleton and provide technical support during the integration and testing phase.
  • Develop and maintain documentation for the HMI and ergonomic aspects of the exoskeleton, including design specifications, operation procedures, and user manuals.
  • Stay up-to-date with emerging technologies and trends in HMI and ergonomic engineering.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s student in Human Factors Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience in designing and developing user interfaces and ergonomic systems for real-time applications.
  • Proficiency in using HMI design and simulation software such as Sketch or Adobe XD.
  • Familiarity with user research methods, such as interviews, surveys, and usability testing.
  • Experience with control mechanisms and feedback systems for wearable robotics.
  • Familiarity with safety standards and regulations for HMI and ergonomic systems.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Good communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively in a team environment.

Additional Qualifications:

  • Master’s student in Human Factors Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.
