What is the difference between Independent Contractor Abb Robotics vs Field Service Technician?

AspectIndependent Contractor Abb RoboticsField Service Technician
CredentialsTechnical certifications, industry-specific trainingTechnical certifications, relevant training
Work EnvironmentProject-based, client sites, flexible hoursOn-site at client locations, regular hours
Employer/Industry UsageFreelance or contracted roles in automation and roboticsEmployers in manufacturing, automation, and maintenance
Search/Comparison IntentUnderstanding contracting roles in roboticsTechnical repair and maintenance roles

Independent Contractor Abb Robotics typically involves project-based work with flexible hours, focusing on automation and robotics systems. Field Service Technicians perform on-site repairs and maintenance, often with regular hours. Both roles require technical certifications, but contractors usually operate independently, while technicians are employed by companies. The choice depends on whether you prefer freelance work or a traditional technician role within the industry.

Does independent contractor ABB Robotics offer remote jobs?

Independent Contractor roles at ABB Robotics may offer remote work options depending on the specific project and client requirements. Typically, technical and engineering tasks may require on-site presence, but some administrative or support functions could be performed remotely. Candidates should review individual job postings for remote work opportunities and requirements.

Job description

Some jobs aren't just tough - they're brutal. Too toxic. Too remote. Too dangerous for humans to handle. That's where we come in.
At HDT, we build robotic arms and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) with military-grade strength and precision engineering, built for the extremes and adaptable to any challenge. Behind the toughest hardware is a team energized by complex problems. Bring us a challenge, and we'll engineer the solution.
That's the mindset. That's the mission. That's Built for Brutal.
The Mechanical Engineer - Robotics will participate in all aspects of design and engineering including requirements analysis, concept generation, mechanical design, implementation, testing, and documentation. The candidate will work on multiple projects of moderate size or on portions of major projects.
The successful candidate will have experience with machine design, sensors, transmissions, electric motors, bearings, kinematic linkages, material selection, structural analysis, as well as hands-on debugging. The ME- Robotics will have the ability to translate objectives to results and deliverables, while working in a highly-collaborative, multi-disciplinary team environment.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Strong robotics fundamentals (kinematics, dynamics, statics, sensing, etc.)
  • Knowledge of 3D mechanical CAD design (Solidworks preferred)
  • Drafting of production drawings for machined parts, fabrications and weldments, COTS parts, and assemblies
  • Static and dynamic structural analysis using a variety of tools including both hand calculations and finite element analysis (FEA)
  • Understands materials needed to optimize strength, weight, cost, and performance
  • Understands machining and manufacturing processes to optimize cost without sacrificing performance
  • Ability to conceptualize and implement the design of complex mechanisms
  • Performs complex design and research tasks; develops mechanical products and systems such as robots, actuators, instruments, sensors, and overall mechatronic systems
  • Designs a complete project, system, component, or process and preparing complete project documents
  • Designs and conducts experiments, analyzes and interprets data, formulates and solves problems
  • Ability and desire to learn new concepts and skills quickly
  • Adheres to all quality and safety standards.
  • Supports other projects and performs duties as assigned.
  • Supports, communicates, reinforces and defends the mission, values and culture of the organization.

EXPERIENCE / KNOWLEDGE / SKILLS / ABILITIES :
  • Experience with robotics/mechatronics
  • Knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)
  • Experience with finite element analysis (FEA). SolidWorks COSMOS or equivalent is sufficient.
  • Experience with sizing actuators i.e. brushless electric motors, including the design of custom motors, and transmissions
  • Experience with strain gages and load cells described
  • Experience with other sensors such as hall-effect, angular position, and temperature sensors
  • Possesses strong computer skills with demonstrated proficiency in standard business software packages (e.g., Microsoft Office). Must possess excellent skills with Microsoft Excel and Word
  • Quality orientation and high attention to detail
  • Must be able to read, speak and understand English
  • Ability to work independently with limited supervision and in a team environment

EDUCATION / EXPERIENCE:
  • BS degree in Mechanical Engineering required, MS preferred
  • 3+ years work experience (Government contractor experience preferred)

WORK ENVIRONMENT: The work environment characteristics here are representative of those an employee encounters while performing the essential functions of this job:
  • Work is accomplished in a typical office environment with adequate environmental (heating/cooling) control. The noise level in the work environment is moderate due to noises associated with computer equipment and environmental control systems.
  • This role routinely uses standard office equipment such as computers, phones, photocopiers and filing cabinets
  • Access to operations and manufacturing areas may involve exposure to loud noises, dust, fumes, oils, and fluctuations in temperature

* This specific position requires U.S. Citizenship. The applicant must be able to obtain and maintain a Secret clearance. An active Secret clearance is preferred but not required.
Equal Opportunity Employer/Protected Veterans/Individuals with Disabilities
This employer is required to notify all applicants of their rights pursuant to federal employment laws. For further information, please review the Know Your Rights notice from the Department of Labor.
