How much do online robotics engineer jobs pay per year?

As of Sep 11, 2026, the average yearly pay for online robotics engineer in the United States is $105,605.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $83,500.00 and $127,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is an online robotics engineer?

An Online Robotics Engineer designs, develops, and maintains robotic systems while working remotely. They use software tools to program robots, simulate performance, and collaborate with teams online. Responsibilities may include automation design, AI integration, and troubleshooting robotic applications. These engineers typically work in industries like manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics, leveraging cloud-based tools for remote development. Strong programming skills, robotics knowledge, and online collaboration proficiency are essential.

What does an online robotics engineer do?

A typical day for an Online Robotics Engineer involves designing, coding, and simulating robotic systems using specialized software, attending virtual meetings with cross-functional teams, and troubleshooting or refining algorithms. You may collaborate closely with engineers, project managers, and sometimes clients to align on project goals and solve technical challenges. Much of the work is project-based, so daily tasks can vary from coding and simulation to reviewing designs or testing prototypes virtually. This remote setting offers flexibility but also requires strong self-management and clear communication to keep projects on track and ensure seamless teamwork.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an online robotics engineer?

To thrive as an Online Robotics Engineer, you need robust knowledge of robotics, programming languages (such as Python or C++), and control systems, typically supported by a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with simulation tools (like ROS or Gazebo), remote collaboration platforms, and possibly certifications in robotics or automation are often required. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective remote communication make candidates excel in this field. These abilities are essential to developing, testing, and managing robotic systems in a distributed, often virtual, work environment.

Job description

Job description

Sorting Robotics Inc. is looking for a robotics Engineer to design, develop, and deploy robotic solutions to manufacturing companies.

This position is a Mid-level position requiring 5-10 years of working experience in the field of robotics, industrial automation, and mechanical engineering.

Do you love getting your hands dirty building things and solving tough problems with practical pragmatic designs? Are you naturally curious about improving processes and machine capabilities?

Preferred: Must be comfortable with cannabis (preferred you enjoy it and have experienced it)- as we manufacture innovations for the legal cannabis market in the US and Canada.

IDEAL CANDIDATE SKILLS

  • Mechanical and Electrical Engineering B.S. with an M.S. in either field.
  • Experience with robotic systems in either a professional or personal setting.
  • Capability to iteratively design using prototyping tools eg. CAD, laser cutter, 3D printing, CNC machines, Eagle PCB.
  • Knowledge of relevant manufacturing processes for production and prototype. Able to work extended hours and weekends as needed.
  • Be able to take initiative on other roles the company needs to succeed.
  • Working knowledge of low level programming for 6DOF arms or other robotic systems.

As you will be working directly with the founder, expect to learn a lot in a short amount of time. This is a "get your hands dirty" technical leadership position. There will be long hours and days where nothing works; but in the end you will be working on multi-million dollar product in a room full of people that appreciate you.
