What is a Fanuc robot?

Fanuc robots are industrial robots manufactured by FANUC Corporation, a leading Japanese company specializing in automation and robotics. These robots are widely used in manufacturing for tasks such as welding, assembly, packaging, and material handling. Fanuc robots are known for their reliability, precision, and flexibility, making them popular in automotive, electronics, and general manufacturing industries. They are programmable and can be integrated with various automation systems to improve efficiency and productivity.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Fanuc robot programmer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a FANUC Robot Programmer, you need strong knowledge of robotics, automation systems, and programming languages such as FANUC's TP (Teach Pendant) programming, usually supported by a degree or technical certification in robotics, engineering, or industrial automation. Familiarity with FANUC controllers, simulation software like RoboGuide, and integration with PLCs or other factory automation systems is essential. Problem-solving ability, attention to detail, and effective communication are crucial soft skills for diagnosing issues and collaborating with cross-functional teams. These competencies ensure efficient robot deployment, minimal downtime, and safe, optimized production processes.

What are some common challenges faced when programming and operating Fanuc robots in a manufacturing environment?

A major challenge for FANUC Robot programmers and operators is troubleshooting errors that may arise during complex automation processes, such as sensor misalignments or unexpected stops. Additionally, adapting to rapidly changing production requirements often requires quick reprogramming and optimization of robot paths, which demands strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail. Collaboration with maintenance teams and engineers is frequent, as ensuring minimal downtime and maintaining safety standards are top priorities. Continuous learning is also important, as FANUC software and hardware updates can introduce new features or best practices.

Job description

GM GRS Certified Robot Technician – FANUC (Automotive Manufacturing)
Position Overview

We are seeking a GM GRS Certified Robot Technician with strong FANUC robotic welding experience to support automated production cells within a high-volume automotive manufacturing facility.

This role focuses on production support, troubleshooting, recovery, and optimization of robotic welding systems. Candidates will not be required to program robots from scratch but must be highly capable of restoring robots to home position, minimizing downtime, and implementing best practices across robotic applications.


Key Responsibilities
  • Maintain and support multiple automated robotic welding cells

  • Troubleshoot FANUC robots and restore systems to operational status

  • Return robots to “home” position and recover from faults efficiently

  • Perform intermediate robot programming and modifications

  • Conduct TCP verification and position touch-ups

  • Perform I/O simulation and communication setup (Remote I/O, Ethernet, DeviceNet)

  • Execute basic offline programming using RoboGuide / RobotStudio

  • Troubleshoot resistance, projection, drawn arc, and GMAW (MIG) welding systems

  • Perform weld fixture adjustments, minor shim moves, and process corrections

  • Troubleshoot and repair:

    • Wiring harnesses

    • Drive systems

    • Relays & boards

    • Motors

    • Electrical panels & breakers

  • Read and interpret electrical schematics and prints

  • Support hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical systems

  • Enter weld cells safely and work around high-speed automated equipment

  • Communicate shift updates and relay critical information to supervisors

  • Follow all GM and plant safety protocols


Technical RequirementsRequired:
  • 3+ years of FANUC robot troubleshooting experience

  • Strong robotic welding troubleshooting background

  • Ability to modify robot programs (not entry-level)

  • Knowledge of:

    • Electronics & electrical circuitry

    • Hydraulics & pneumatics

    • PLC-controlled automated systems

    • Remote I/O, Ethernet, DeviceNet communication

  • Ability to troubleshoot resistance and MIG welding systems

  • High School Diploma or equivalent

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)

  • Excellent verbal communication skills

Highly Preferred:
  • GM Experience

  • GM GRS Certification (with documented proof)

  • GM MPS Certification (with documented proof)

  • Mechatronics certificate or Journeyperson card

  • Associate’s Degree in Mechatronics / Controls / Maintenance

  • Industrial Maintenance / Machine Repair / Electrician background

  • Bin Picking experience


Behavioral Expectations
  • High accountability and ownership of work

  • Self-motivated and able to prioritize independently

  • Works with urgency to minimize downtime
