The Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) Systems Engineer develops the design and implementation of systems that integrate AMR hardware and associated software, working closely with colleagues across the globe to implement optimal, customer-centric solutions.
Requirements
- Able to create innovative designs for vehicle control, communication, safety, and power system schematics and troubleshoot to component level.
- Strong "hands-on" capability in the installation and commissioning of AMR or other Mobile Automation systems in a production environment.
- 0 to 4 years’ experience with Autonomous Mobile Robot or other Mobile Automation (AGV) integration.
- PLC design (ladder logic and structured text) or similar control logic (Allen-Bradley, Siemens) is a plus.
- Identify necessary tasks, identify possible hazards, determine risk reduction requirements, reason possible solutions to reduce risk, validate proposed solutions and document the risk assessment per ANSI/RIA R15.06:2012 Robot Safety Standard, ISO 10218-1:2011, and ISO 10218-2:2011
- Perform and supervise installation and commissioning including oversight of contractors and partners.
- Inspect completed installations and observe operations, to ensure conformance to design and equipment specifications and compliance with operational and safety standards.
Responsibilities
- Primary equipment focus will be to help manage and coordinate the design of AMR equipment incorporating various types of material handling system applications.
- Another main responsibility is the configuration of AMR fleet management software, and then commissioning of the hardware and sleet management software at the customer’s facility.
- You define mid and top-level behavior of the AMRs, thereby shaping much of the overall behavior of the system.
- Provide detailed new equipment and acceptance testing specifications.
- Drive all activities related to ensuring new equipment is built to specification.
- Thoroughly characterize and document the base line performance and capability of each system and drive actions to maintain system performance to the documented base line.
- Networking design and commissioning experience with Ethernet (including EthernetIP), DeviceNet, ProfiNet and Profibus.
Other
- Customer focus and problem solving are to be your strongest areas.
- Fluent in English
- Chinese speaking is an advantage
- Communication skills, strong ability to work in a team, goal and result oriented, as well as a strongly structured way of working.
