Robotics Engineer

Job Description

Title: Robotics Engineer

Location: Delavan, Wisconsin (5 days onsite)

Duration: Contract

Looking for someone who is having Robotics experience (ABB or Kuka) + Control PLC SCADA experience.

Automotive domain is good to have

Job Description & Skill Requirement:
  • Years of Experience: 5~7 yrs
  • A strong background in mechanical engineering principles combined with elite-level programming and system analysis capabilities to bridge the gap between physical design and complex control logic.

Core Responsibilities:
  • System Design & Analysis: Lead the mechanical design of custom automation cells and end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) using SolidWorks, ensuring adherence to ASME Y14.5 standards.
  • Feasibility & Validation: Conduct rigorous Robot Reachability studies and Payload Analysis (accounting for joint torque, center of gravity, and moment of inertia) to validate system performance before physical execution.
  • Safety & Compliance: Perform comprehensive Risk Assessments and Safety Analyses in accordance with ANSI/RIA R15.06 and ISO 10218. Integrate safety PLCs, light curtains, and fail-safe mechanisms to ensure a zero-harm environment.
  • Robotics & Programming: Design and program complex robotic workcells. Act as the subject matter expert for high-level robot logic and motion profile optimization.
  • Control Systems: Develop robust PLC programs (utilizing both Digital and Analog I/O) and intuitive HMI interfaces.
  • Electrical Engineering: Create, interpret, and troubleshoot detailed electrical schematics and industrial prints.
  • Vision Integration: Program and calibrate advanced Machine Vision systems for high-precision inspection, part location, and robotic guidance.
  • Lean Manufacturing: Apply Lean principles (5S, Kaizen, Value Stream Mapping) to eliminate waste and maximize throughput in automated lines.

Required Qualifications:
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering field.
  • Certification: Successfully passed the FE (Fundamentals of Engineering) exam.
  • Mechanical Expertise: Expert proficiency in SolidWorks with a deep understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5).
  • Controls & Electrical: Advanced knowledge of PLC/HMI programming and electrical schematic design.
  • Robotics & Vision: Expert-level experience in programming 6-axis robots (e.g., Fanuc, ABB, Kuka) and integrated vision platforms (e.g., Cognex, Keyence).
  • Safety Standards: Demonstrated experience with ISO 13849 or ANSI B11.19 safety standards and risk assessment methodologies.
