Job description

• Work as part of a technical team to solving real-world challenges by building advanced capabilities, technologies, and solutions in the field of industrial robotics and automation. • Work on projects supporting innovative software/controls development, perception, hardware integration, and testing on industrial robots and custom automation hardware. • Be part of a team with some of the brightest minds in industrial robotics. • Research and uncover new applications, industries, and clients for novel automation capabilities. • Work primarily at SwRI facilities/laboratories as well as attend meetings, and contribute to deployment efforts which may occur at commercial and government client facilities. • Visit robotics.swri.org to learn about some of the work we do. • Communicate effectively with internal team, external clients, and industry partners. • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to develop technical solutions, and coordinate technical tasks with project managers and engineering staff. • Develop software solutions for robotic and automated systems to include designing, building, debugging, and implementing these systems at client facilities. • Drive individual performance goals and objectives set by the organization. • Assist in preparing proposals and cost estimates. • Interact with customers to promote new business and develop technical requirements for projects. • Special focus of motion planning, 3D perception/processing, industrial robotic manipulators, surface reconstruction, and/or applied machine learning. • Requires a Bachelors, Masters or a PhD in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Software Engineering, or other robotics-related degree. • 0-5 years: BS candidates must have relevant academic research and/or internship experience. MS and PhD candidates must have completed graduate work related to robotics, machine learning, or industrial robotic manipulators. • Experience with robotics, applied machine learning, and/or perception through prior industry employment or an internship, co-op, student competition team, or graduate research is required. • Strong software skills; C++ or Python required; Robot Operating System (ROS) experience preferred. Operational and/or research experience with software is required. Experience deploying software solutions onto hardware is preferred. • Strong communication skills. • A valid/clear driver's license is required. Considerations: Applicant selected will be subject to a government security investigation and must meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information. Applicant must be a U.S. citizen.
