Job Description:

• The Systems Engineer plays a crucial role in the Robotics deployment team. They oversee the installation, troubleshooting, integration, and commissioning of the Robotics equipment in new and existing fulfillment centers (FCs).
• This field engineering based position demands strong technical skills for deploying robotic equipment, including working with mechanical systems, electrical, configuring networking, and coordinating software systems.
• The ideal candidate will have experience with complex electro-mechanical and network systems.
• They should also demonstrate leadership in the installation, maintenance, upgrade, or troubleshooting of these systems.
• Systems engineers will work with a team of 1-5 engineers and collaborate with an on-site project manager to provide technical oversight on the installation of both third party and designed robotics equipment.
• These deployments require extensive collaboration with various stakeholders, including third-party installers, contracted engineers, construction, hardware, software, IT, and other partner teams.
• Strong communication skills are essential for interacting with both internal and external partners and customers.
• As a client, the candidate must demonstrate independent initiative to identify and solve problems in real time during deployments.
• They will also drive continuous improvement initiatives to avoid recurrence.
• This systems engineer position is a leadership role within the on-site deployment teams.
• Candidates should have a proven track record of successfully leading work scopes and making effective decisions.
• Systems engineers will be deploying the robotic systems in various phases of a product life cycle.
• When supporting new products, the candidate is required to lead the development of process documentation and modifying the existing processes.
• Strong technical understanding, love for field work, and a keen interest in diving deep into the understanding of client’s robotics systems are key attributes for this role.
• As a client, the ability to recognize process gaps and take ownership in developing solutions are important.

Critical Skills:

• Proficiency in reading, developing technical documentation, and writing process instructions.
• Experience handling multiple priorities in a fast-paced, field-based construction or warehouse environment.
• Must be proficient in standard office software tools and processes.
• Expertise in robotics, complex electro-mechanical systems, and networked engineering, including knowledge of robotic components and software.
• Strong initiative and ability to work independently, while reporting to leadership.
• Excellent communication skills for customer-facing interactions and data reporting on project status and technology deployments.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
• Ability to capture lessons learned, conduct retrospective reviews, and drive continuous improvement projects.
• Capability to function independently, manage a team of 1-5 engineers and related trades during deployments.
• Proficiency in integrated schedule management to coordinate with different teams both within and outside of Robotics.
• Ability to oversee and resolve escalations during robotics deployment including quality hand-off, live order testing, site acceptance testing, operational readiness testing, monitoring system performance, etc.
• Responsible for delivering projects by owning key performance indicators related to on-time delivery, cost, quality, safety, and sustainability.
• Understanding of data collection, reporting processes, and ability to make data-driven decisions.

Key job responsibilities:

• Support and guide installation of robotic technologies at fulfillment centers.
• The Systems Engineer develops detailed knowledge of the operation of robotic systems and guides installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting of these systems both on site and remotely.
• The scopes vary significantly in length and include heavy travel to both live warehouses and new construction sites.
• The Systems Engineer will generate and implement continuous improvement ideas around their work-scopes and lead teams of other engineers on projects.
• The Robotics Deployment Engineering team consists of the field deployment teams for the client's robotic warehouse systems.
• The teams travel frequently and work across overlapping projects to complete their deployment scopes and continuously improve our processes.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• BS degree in Engineering or closely related STEM field.
• 3+ years working on mechanical, electrical, IT networked, or software systems.
• 2+ years experience with technical drawings and/or reading CAD models to resolve on-site clash issues using 3D clash detection reports.
• 2+ years…
