As a Software Engineer, you will create tools and pipelines for AI development, manage data solutions for ML teams, and ensure high-quality code.

As Robotics & Automation Project Engineer, you will ensure reliability of robotic systems, diagnose failures, implement improvements, and support operations across manufacturing environments.

Design, build, and execute automated and manual test frameworks and scripts (primarily UiPath/RPA). Perform regression, smoke, compatibility, and functional testing; document defects and traceability. Lead test automation strategy, mentor QA engineers, manage test execution across environments, and collaborate with development and infrastructure teams to deliver reliable application releases.

Develop and maintain automation and test infrastructure for hardware-in-the-loop and manufacturing validation. Build modular Python/C/C++ test software, automate acceptance test procedures, create data-analysis algorithms, and manage telemetry, CI, and deployment tools to increase test frequency, reliability, and observability across engineering workflows.

Design, implement, and maintain PLC-based control systems and SCADA/HMI for test stands and production. Build high-reliability C++/Rust services, define software architecture and standards, integrate sensors and actuators, and lead debugging, root cause analysis, and reliability improvements across the automation stack.

Lead implementation, optimization, and lifecycle support of automation systems (DeltaV, PLCs, SCADA, AVEVA PI, robotics) for pharma manufacturing. Collaborate cross-functionally to integrate systems with MES/ODH, drive standards (ISA-95/88), support validation/compliance (cGMP, CSV), lead CAPEX projects, and provide commissioning, on-call, and continuous improvement support with AI/ML initiatives.

Design, program, and test control systems for industrial pumping and mining applications. Specify and source PLCs, HMIs, drives, motors, sensors and I/O; build prototype panels and wiring harnesses; program PLCs/HMIs; execute lab and field test plans; produce BOMs, schematics and documentation; collaborate with engineering, product management, supply chain, and vendors.

Design, program, install, troubleshoot, and support PLCs, HMIs, robots, vision, conveyors, and industrial control systems to improve production uptime, reliability, safety, and efficiency. Lead integrations, root-cause analysis, preventive maintenance planning, documentation, and training; coordinate with production, maintenance, vendors, and integrators on installations, commissioning, and urgent repairs.

Lead mid-to-large automation initiatives to deliver lights-out production capabilities. Manage end-to-end deployment, vendor relationships, budgets, and cross-functional engineering deliverables. Ensure interoperability between custom machinery, robotics networks, and enterprise systems (MES/PLM/ERP) while meeting safety and OEE targets and handing projects off to factory operations.

Lead and deliver multi-million dollar automation projects from concept to stable 24/7 production. Own program-level CapEx, KPI planning, vendor/OEM management, and interoperability between robotics, PLC controls, and enterprise systems. Provide advanced technical mentorship, conduct design reviews, and drive continuous improvement and standards across automation deployments.

Support wiring, fabrication, and documentation of controls and automation equipment for a pilot production line and lab. Assist with sensor/field-device integration, PLC/HMI programming, schematic review, SOP creation, and task tracking under guidance from a controls engineer.
