Industrial Robotics Engineer - #664228

Industrial Robotics Engineer (Remote, Full-Time)

Join technology-driven teams deploying and supporting production-grade industrial robotics systems across smart factory environments. You will work remotely with plant teams and integrators to deliver reliable, safe, and high-throughput robotic automation.

About The Role

You will design, program, and support industrial robotic automation solutions for production environments, covering robot cell development, PLC/HMI integration, machine vision alignment, safety validation, and commissioning planning. You will drive troubleshooting, performance tuning, preventive maintenance strategy, and documentation to meet throughput, quality, and uptime targets.

Key Responsibilities

• Own robot programming and optimization (path planning, cycle-time reduction, recovery routines)
• Integrate robots with PLCs, HMIs, sensors, and industrial networks (e.g., EtherNet/IP, PROFINET)
• Support commissioning and remote troubleshooting using logs, structured diagnostics, and backups
• Coordinate safety implementation (risk assessments, safety-rated I/O, guarding, interlocks)
• Validate vision-guided robotics (calibration, lighting, localization concepts)
• Create and maintain documentation, SOPs, backups, and training materials
• Deliver continuous improvement tied to OEE, quality, and downtime reduction
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Mid-Senior experience in industrial robotics, controls, or automation engineering
• Hands-on robot programming on FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa, or Universal Robots (or equivalent)
• Strong PLC/controls fundamentals and troubleshooting ability in production environments
• Comfort working remotely with clear written communication and change control
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• ROS/ROS2, simulation/digital twins, or offline programming exposure
• Safety validation workflow experience (risk assessment, safety PLC concepts)
• Industrial data acquisition familiarity (OPC UA, MQTT, historian concepts)
  
  

Compensation

Competitive hourly base pay: $30–$50 per hour (USD), depending on experience and scope.
