A day in the life
You will actively engage with external AC/DC, DC/DC, battery, and supercapacitor suppliers to understand their products and integrate them into robotic systems. In learning about the products and our customers you will collaborate with suppliers to design engineering test systems for these products. You will leverage your industry experience and deep dive customer and regulatory demands to integrate these new products into our custom automation systems. There will be active participation within an interdisciplinary team working to iterate on the design optimizing across cost, schedule and time to market.1. Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage
