Job Title: Robotics Engineer

Location: 100% travel

Duration: 5 months

Job Description:

Systems engineers will be deploying the robotic systems in various phases of a product life cycle. When supporting new products, the candidate is required to lead the development of process documentation and modifying the existing processes. Strong technical understanding, love for field work, and a keen interest in diving deep into the understanding of Client’s robotics systems are key attributes for this role. The ability to recognize process gaps and take ownership in developing solutions are important. Project duration can range from a few days to several months and includes travel across the US. This position requires 100% travel.

Critical Skills:

Proficiency in reading, developing technical documentation, and writing process instructions

Experience handling multiple priorities in a fast-paced, field-based construction or warehouse environment

Must be proficient in standard office software tools and processes

Expertise in robotics, complex electro-mechanical systems, and networked engineering, including knowledge of robotic components and software

Strong initiative and ability to work independently, while reporting to leadership.

Excellent communication skills for customer-facing interactions and data reporting on project status and technology deployments

Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams

Ability to capture lessons learned, conduct retrospective reviews, and drive continuous improvement projects

Capability to function independently, manage a team of 1-5 engineers and related trades during deployments

Proficiency in integrated schedule management to coordinate with different teams both within and outside of Client Robotics

Ability to oversee and resolve escalations during robotics deployment including quality hand-off, live order testing, site acceptance testing, operational readiness testing, monitoring system performance, etc.

Responsible for delivering projects by owning key performance indicators related to on-time delivery, cost, quality, safety, and sustainability

Understanding of data collection, reporting processes, and ability to make data-driven decisions.

Key job responsibilities

Support and guide installation of robotic technologies at Client fulfillment centers. The Systems Engineer develops detailed knowledge of the operation of robotic systems and guides installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting of these systems both on site and remotely. The scopes vary significantly in length and include heavy travel to both live warehouses and new construction sites. The Systems Engineer will generate and implement continuous improvement ideas around their work-scopes and lead teams of other engineers on projects.

The Robotics Deployment Engineering team consists of the field deployment teams for Client's robotic warehouse systems. The teams travel frequently and work across overlapping projects to complete their deployment scopes and continuously improve our processes
