Robotics Manipulator Engineer (System Control)

Brief Summary: Join a dynamic role focused on advancing robotic automation through the development of sophisticated control systems. This position offers the opportunity to innovate and enhance precision in industrial applications. Responsibilities:

• Design and develop advanced control systems for robotic manipulators in pick-and-place and assembly applications.

• Select, integrate, and calibrate various controllers and actuators for effective robotic manipulation.

• Design sensor-driven feedback control loops, incorporating force/torque sensors and vision systems for adaptive control.

• Tuning and optimizing control systems for fast, smooth, and precise operations.

• Develop fault detection and error recovery mechanisms to enhance robustness in performance.

• Conduct robot teaching and robotic manipulator simulations for new applications and deployments.

• Program robots using industrial robot programming languages (e.g., Yaskawa, ABB, KUKA) or general-purpose languages like C/C#/C++, Python.

• Document technical reports, program codes, and setup manuals.

Requirements:

• A Master's or Ph.D. degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Computer Engineering or a relevant discipline, with more than five years of industry experience.

• Strong understanding of robot kinematics, dynamics, and control theories (e.g. PID, Model Predictive Control, Impedance Control).

• Proven ability to develop and deploy custom pick-and-place or pick-and-assemble applications.

• Hands-on experience with industrial robot arm controllers and sensor integration.

• Experience using commercial pre-integrated solutions (e.g., Siemens SRP, ABB RobotStudio, Denso VPS).

• Ability to program microcontrollers and design basic electrical circuitry.

• Proficiency in programming industrial robots using manufacturer-specific languages or C/C#/C++, Python for control algorithm development.

• Experience with robot calibration techniques and sensor integration (e.g., vision, force/torque).

• Familiarity with ROS 1/2, Linux OS, and other real-time control frameworks or software tools.

• Patents, publications, specialist certifications, or awards in robotics and automation are an advantage.
