Title: Robotics Automation Engineer (Research and Early Development)
IDEAL QUALIFICATIONS
Bachelor in Engineering (Robotic's Preferred)
The Opportunity
Note: Previous final interview reject reason: we are looking for, primarily in prototyping integrating motion control and robotics systems, use of machine vision for calibration, and general robotics/physical AI.
Summary/Overview:
Applies diversified knowledge of design principles, practices and implementation in complex systems and assignments. General responsibilities include concept generation, prototyping, detailed design and testing to assess performance against project objectives. Works as part of an agile research engineering team, making independent decisions and exercising technical judgment to achieve generally defined project goals. Iterates designs based on feedback and user testing.
Responsibility Statements:
Applies advanced engineering knowledge to research projects, typically related to process automation and integration.
Participates in defining new components, products or processes, typically for pathology lab applications.
Creates potentially patentable components for systems, or processes.
Receives general direction and exercises considerable discretion as to work details.
Performs simulations, analyses and experiments to test hypotheses related to project outcomes.
Designs, builds and tests prototype hardware and software systems to achieve defined goals.
Prepares and delivers presentations of project results to others; presents data to diverse audiences.
Participates in project planning as part of a cross functional agile technical team.
Other duties as assigned by management.
Minimum Qualifications / Work Experience:
Required: Bachelor's Degree or equivalent in a directly related discipline + 8y experience, OR
MS degree in directly related discipline + 4 years of related experience required; OR
