Industrial Robotics Engineer

About The Role

As an Industrial Robotics Engineer focused on Chile-based robotics programs, you will deliver remote engineering support for industrial automation projects including robot programming, workcell commissioning, PLC integration, and production performance optimization. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to validate safety systems, stabilize robotic cells, and improve production performance.

What You Will Do

• Design, program, and troubleshoot industrial robotic workcells (material handling, palletizing, welding, packaging)
• Integrate robots with PLCs/HMIs, validate I/O, and commission fieldbus/industrial Ethernet communications
• Support commissioning and troubleshooting with clear documentation, change control, and structured debugging
• Drive continuous improvement using production KPIs (OEE, downtime, scrap) and root-cause analysis
• Where applicable, support vision-guided robotics and machine vision inspection, including annotation review and QA evaluation of perception outputs
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Mid-senior experience delivering industrial robotics or automation engineering work for production systems
• Hands-on robot programming and commissioning/troubleshooting experience
• Strong PLC integration, industrial networking, and safety circuits knowledge
• Ability to work remotely with plant stakeholders and maintain strong engineering documentation
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Vision-guided robotics and machine vision inspection experience (camera/lighting setup)
• Familiarity with data labeling workflows and QA evaluation methods for computer vision models
• Experience working with integrators, OEMs, or multi-site manufacturing operations
