control systems engineer (robots). Sydney
- Do you have strong theoretical understanding of robot kinematics and movement?
- Can you demonstrate a track record of programming Kuka, Fanuc robots (or similar)?
- Are you open to a Sydney-based opportunity with a global provider of bespoke industrial automaton solutions?
Our client provides high-value integrated material handling solutions for major brands, both domestically and internationally. In growth mode, they have an immediate opportunity for an industry-experienced Engineer to join their well-established Sydney-based operation. The new appointee will design and optimise software for the deployment of leading-edge robotic systems, focusing on performance, adaptability and integration.
The role includes programming of robot behaviour, communication interfaces and supporting future enhancements in both automation and predictive maintenance. With hands-on involvement in customer deployment in functionality projects, you will:
Optimise robot software functionalities to optimise performance, efficiency and
maintainability
Integrate and implement improvements into the software base, including:
-Adapting to a variety of robotic grippers
-Supporting the orchestration of predictive maintenance strategies
-Integrating new sensors into the system
-Improve I/O interfaces to the PLC
-Enhance Tool Centre Point (TCP) communication with the IPC
-Maintain and update robot peripheral equipment, including vacuum
systems, I/O modules and encoders
About you:
It is likely that your tertiary qualifications are in Mechatronics, Automation & Robotics or similar and that you have 3+ years post graduate practical experience. In addition, you can demonstrate:
-Understanding of robot kinematics and movement (singularity avoidance)
-Experience with robot programming (Fanuc, Kuka or experience in Pascal or Structured Text)
-Experience with C++ and/or Python.
-Experience with the following TCP, UDP, and/or ProfiNet communication protocols
Highly valued / not essential:
-Working knowledge of offline simulations and programming in tools
-Some exposure to pneumatics and vacuum technology and vision technology.
This role represents a rare opportunity to deploy your skills in a high-value, bespoke robotics project environment, working with the Australian operations of a highly respected European HQ'd organisation. For more details, contact ian.eker@liftpass.com.au / 0435985089
