Software Robotics Design Engineer

Software Robotics Design Engineer – Fameccanica, Boston Hub (Middleton, MA)

Help bring advanced robotics systems to life.

Fameccanica North America is building its new Robotics & Automation Engineering Hub, just north of Boston, and this role will help shape it from the ground up. As a Software / Robotics Design Engineer, you will design and implement software for advanced automation systems while working closely with the hardware. It is a strong fit for someone who enjoys hands‑on problem solving and wants to make an impact in a growing U.S. robotics organization.

• Design and implement software for robotics and industrial automation applications.
• Work with PLCs, motion control, robotics platforms, and HMI/SCADA systems.
• Support system integration, testing, commissioning, and troubleshooting.
• Partner with mechanical, electrical, and controls teams to deliver solutions that meet technical, timing, and customer requirements.

• Strong experience in robotics, automation, and industrial software development.
• Experience with robot programming, PLC platforms such as Rockwell or Siemens, motion control, and HMI/SCADA systems.
• Experience with C#, Python, C++, simulation tools, or digital twin technologies is a plus.
• A collaborative, adaptable approach and excitement for building something new.

This is more than a traditional engineering role. It is a chance to join a growing innovation hub early and help shape how robotics solutions are developed in the U.S. You will work in a modern environment built for research, prototyping, and testing, with strong visibility and meaningful ownership.

• Position based in Middleton, Massachusetts, just north of Boston, at Fameccanica’s new Robotics & Automation Hub.
• Travel expected to be approximately 15-30%, depending on project needs.
