• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Engineering or related engineering fields

Desirable

• As a Robotics Engineering Intern, you’ll have an opportunity to work as part of a team that designs, develops, and operates robotic systems that enable the next generation of manufacturing automation
• You will be working with outside vendors and other team members to define requirements and put together industrial robotic systems
• You'll work with path planning software and strategies for novel manufacturing operations using industrial robotic systems
• You will also contribute to integrating tooling and sensors (ATI, Keyence, etc.) and develop closed loop control software to optimize process parameters in real time
• Identify project priorities, software/hardware requirements and design constraints with team members across multiple disciplines and translate those into minimum viable systems
• Take part in design review meetings and provide feedback to team
• Design software for path planning and control of robotic end-effectors
• Operate robots using your software and enable other team members to efficiently interface with the robots to test and implement new features
• Design, implement, and integrate sensors and supporting software / firmware
• Rapidly develop prototypes to verify design concepts and constraints, and balance design efforts with short- and long-term objectives
• Take part in the software development effort and take charge of the full software development lifecycle
