Robotics Engineer – Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR)
Location: Irving, TX
Company: Trilogy NextGen
Role Summary
Trilogy NextGen is seeking a Robotics Engineer focused on Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) to support the deployment and integration of robotic automation solutions in logistics, warehouse, and industrial environments.
This role is a mid-level, hands-on engineering position responsible for configuring, deploying, and optimizing AMR systems while integrating them into customer operations and IT infrastructure. The engineer will work closely with Trilogy NextGen deployment teams, customer operations teams, and robotics platform vendors to ensure robots operate reliably in production environments.
The position focuses primarily on robot deployment, system integration, and operational optimization, with exposure to advanced connectivity technologies such as private LTE (pLTE). Prior cellular networking experience is not required, but a willingness to learn and work with private wireless technologies is important.
Key Responsibilities
AMR Deployment & Integration
Deploy and configure Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) systems in warehouse, logistics, and industrial environments.
Support robot setup, mapping, navigation configuration, and task orchestration.
Integrate robots with warehouse management systems (WMS), fleet managers, and operational software platforms.
Configure robot workflows to support material movement, inventory handling, and operational automation.
System Integration & Connectivity
Integrate AMR platforms with customer IT infrastructure, APIs, and operational systems.
Support connectivity and network integration across Wi-Fi and private LTE (pLTE) environments.
Work with networking teams to ensure robots maintain stable, low-latency connectivity required for reliable operation.
Troubleshoot communication issues affecting robotic systems.
Testing, Validation & Optimization
Perform site assessments, system validation, and acceptance testing during deployments.
Analyze robot performance, throughput, and task efficiency to identify optimization opportunities.
Troubleshoot issues related to robot navigation, connectivity, or system integrations.
Support post-deployment tuning to improve reliability and operational performance.
Customer Deployment Support
Participate in customer deployments, pilots, and proofs of concept.
Provide hands-on technical support during robot installation and go-live periods.
Work directly with customer operations teams to ensure robots integrate effectively into daily workflows.
Document deployment processes and lessons learned to support repeatable implementations.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Collaborate with internal engineering, connectivity, and IT services teams to deliver integrated automation solutions.
Work with robotics platform vendors to troubleshoot and improve deployments.
Support internal development of best practices for AMR deployment and integration.
Required Qualifications
