This role is critical in researching, prototyping, integrating, and testing complex electromechanical and fluidic systems for future products.
Responsibilities
- Synthesize inputs from Hardware, Electrical, and Software teams to author comprehensive, system-level schematics/diagrams.
- Perform deep dives into unfamiliar technologies, conducting rigorous research and trade studies.
- Act as the primary technical point of contact with third-party vendors supplying custom solutions.
- Define control strategies to seamlessly integrate third-party technologies into our core architecture.
- Execute testing protocols for critical system components to ensure performance, reliability, and throughput requirements.
- Lead the design and strategy for pneumatic and fluidic controls.
- Partner with Mechanical Engineers to spec needed sensors, actuators, cables, and connectors.
- Establish a unified, consistent design language for system documentation.
- Provide on-site and remote troubleshooting support during installation, system startup, and ongoing operations.
- Work collaboratively with cross-functional teams including mechanical engineers, software engineers, and technician teams.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related engineering field.
- 5+ years of engineering work experience, with at least 2 years in a System Integrator or Systems Engineering role in the industrial robotics/automation industry or similar.
- Experience working with 3rd party vendors to make custom build/specced equipment.
- Proficient in creating clear, logical system maps, wiring diagrams, pneumatic and plumbing diagrams, and flowcharts using tools like Lucidchart, Visio, or similar ECAD/schematic software.
- Proficient at CAD, control system wiring, and software scripting.
- Solid foundational understanding of electromechanical systems.
- Comfortable reading schematics, understanding controls architecture, pneumatic and fluidic plumbing and controls, and working with both hardware and software teams.
- Comfortable designing or architecting electromechanical, pneumatic or fluidic systems from the ground up.
- Comfortable with reading and understanding detailed third-party datasheets, evaluating components for application suitability and translating those learnings into simple conclusions and recommendations.
- Proficient at researching unfamiliar technologies and building a fundamental understanding to map out potential solutions.
- Familiarity with modern agile and project management tools (Jira, Confluence, Miro, etc.).
- Ability to push forward on many projects at once, balancing priorities appropriately.
- Highly capable of interfacing with vendors and third parties to describe requirements and evaluate component suitability.
- Excellent communicator.
