  • Proficiency in robot programming languages (URScript, RAPID, KRL, or equivalent).
  • Strong understanding of industrial communication protocols (Modbus, TCP/IP, OPC UA, etc.).
  • Experience integrating PLCs, sensors, vision systems, and peripheral hardware.
  • Competence in C#, Python, or Lua for automation scripting and integration tasks.
  • Experience with 3D modeling, prototyping, and additive manufacturing (3D printing) for designing robotic tools and fixtures.
  • Familiarity with mechatronics, electronics, or mechanical design (CAD) is highly advantageous.
  • Excellent troubleshooting and analytical skills.
Nice to Have
  • Experience in laboratory automation or process optimization.
  • Knowledge of AI-assisted automation, ML-based process control, or computer vision.
  • Ability to document and train others on automation workflows.
