Summary

Robotics Controls Engineer

Core Responsibilities:
Strong background in mechanical engineering principles combined with elite-level programming and system analysis capabilities to bridge the gap between physical design and complex control logic.
System Design & Analysis: Lead the mechanical design of custom automation cells and end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) using SolidWorks, ensuring adherence to ASME Y14.5 standards.
Feasibility & Validation: Conduct rigorous Robot Reachability studies and Payload Analysis (accounting for joint torque, center of gravity, and moment of inertia) to validate system performance before physical execution.
Safety & Compliance: Perform comprehensive Risk Assessments and Safety Analyses in accordance with ANSI/RIA R15.06 and ISO 10218. Integrate safety PLCs, light curtains, and fail-safe mechanisms to ensure a zero-harm environment.
Robotics & Programming: Design and program complex robotic workcells. Act as the subject matter expert for high-level robot logic and motion profile optimization.
Control Systems: Develop robust PLC programs (utilizing both Digital and Analog I/O) and intuitive HMI interfaces.
Electrical Engineering: Create, interpret, and troubleshoot detailed electrical schematics and industrial prints.
Vision Integration: Program and calibrate advanced Machine Vision systems for high-precision inspection, part location, and robotic guidance.
Lean Manufacturing: Apply Lean principles (5S, Kaizen, Value Stream Mapping) to eliminate waste and maximize throughput in automated lines.

Required Qualifications:
Education: Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or a related engineering field.
Certification: Successfully passed the FE (Fundamentals of Engineering) exam.
Mechanical Expertise: Strong proficiency in SolidWorks 2020 and AutoCAD, with a solid understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) principles.
Experienced in Powertrain Fixture Design, with excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
Controls & Electrical: Advanced knowledge of PLC/HMI programming and electrical schematic design.
Robotics & Vision: Expert-level experience in programming 6-axis robots (e.g., Fanuc, ABB, Kuka) and integrated vision platforms (e.g., Cognex, Keyence).
Safety Standards: Demonstrated experience with ISO 13849 or ANSI B11.19 safety standards and risk assessment methodologies.
