Robotic engineer

What We're Looking For

We're looking for the Robotics engineer who ais vital in designing and developing automated systems for manufacturing operations. They design automated manufacturing cells layout, materials and information flow, equipment placement, and more.

What You'll Be Doing

• Developing and testing new technologies of additive and subtractive manufacturing, defined trajectory payload manipulation, and pick-n-place application using KUKA industrial robots;
• Offline and online KUKA robots programming for new products and technologies;
• Generating toolpath for robots using CAM and Slicing software;
• Advanced robot programming, including RSI, System coordinates transformation, and basic linear algebra calculation.
• Operating robotic work cells to perform prepared programs for proof of concept pilot facility
• Maintaining machines and equipment that are included in the work cells
• Develop custom robot application code to interface with other peripheral systems and equipment;
• Design and implement robotic cell layouts based on KUKA robot design, strengths and limitations
• Creating full working volume simulations to test the designed or proposed layouts;
• Propose and formulate requirements for mechanical structures and features required to perform newly developed technologies and new products;
• Develop RFI and RFQs and work with contractors and integrators to develop project scopes using SMART methodology;
• Develop equipment specifications and requirements based on new product and manufacturing technologies;
• Conduct equipment design reviews and provide design guidance to vendors.

What's Required

• 5+ years of extensive experience in robotic programming and applications
• KUKA robots simulation and offline programming (Fastsuite, KUKA SimPro, Visual Components or similar)
• Hands-on experience commissioning and programming industrial robots
• Expert in using CAD/CAM software
• Robotic mechanical and electrical troubleshooting and maintenance skills
• Able to solve complex problems by utilizing internal and external resource pools;
• Well organized, pay attention to details, and methodical in your approach to design and engineering"
• Being a collaborative team player comes naturally to you
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Fluent in English

What's Nice-to-Have

• Master's degree in mechanical, mechatronics engineering, or computer science.
