Robot Control information

What is the difference between Robot Control vs Robot Programmer?

AspectRobot ControlRobot Programmer
Required CredentialsTechnical certifications, associate degrees in robotics or automationSimilar certifications, programming courses, and technical training
Work EnvironmentManufacturing plants, automation facilities, industrial settingsDesign labs, manufacturing floors, software development environments
Employer & Industry UsageManufacturers, automation companies, industrial facilitiesRobotics firms, manufacturing companies, automation service providers
Common Search & Comparison IntentUnderstanding operational roles in roboticsFocus on programming and software development for robots

Robot Control involves managing and operating robotic systems on the factory floor, ensuring they perform tasks correctly. Robot Programmers focus on writing and developing the software that enables robots to function. While both roles require technical skills and industry knowledge, Robot Control emphasizes operational oversight, whereas Robot Programmers concentrate on programming and software development.

Is it hard to get a robot control job?

A robot control job typically requires a background in robotics, programming, or engineering, along with skills in control systems and experience with relevant tools like PLCs or ROS. Competition can be moderate, but having specialized knowledge and certifications can improve chances of employment.

Is robotics a high paying field?

Robotics is generally considered a high-paying field, especially for roles such as robot control engineers and automation specialists, with salaries often exceeding average engineering wages. Factors like experience, education, certifications, and industry (e.g., manufacturing, aerospace) influence earning potential, and advanced skills in programming and control systems can lead to higher salaries.

Junior Robotics Engineer

MOLG Inc.

Sterling, VA

Full-time

Re-posted 7 days ago


Job description

Hours: Full-time

Location: Molg HQ in Chantilly, VA (Northern Virginia)

Salary: Competitive compensation, including salary, equity, and full healthcare benefits


OUR MISSION

Tackle the fast growing e-waste problem by making electronics manufacturing circular. 


Molg builds robotics microfactories and software to autonomously assemble and disassemble complex electronic products like laptop PCs, servers, and battery packs. Working with some of the leading computer + server manufacturers as well as industrial companies like Stanley Black and Decker, we are building the circular manufacturing technology to recover existing in-market devices for reuse and recycling as well as helping develop the next generation of circular-focused devices at the design level. 


IN THIS ROLE YOU WILL:

Work with a talented cross-functional team of software, mechanical, electrical, and robotics engineers to develop our core technologies in robotics, assembly intelligence, computer vision, and microfactories. As a Robotics Engineer, you will be responsible for:


  • Development, testing, and deployment of disassembly, reassembly, and other automated jobs of customer products in the Molg’s Microfactories 

  • Contributing to core CAD to robotic motion and grasp planning workflow software (i.e. assembly intelligence)

  • Delivering simulations and scenarios related to customer demonstrations and deployments

  • Collaborating with mechanical, electrical, and software engineers on end-of-arm tooling, fixturing, vision systems, and control systems


WHO YOU ARE:

  • Passionate and curious about robotics and manufacturing 

  • Have some industry or academic experience in software development in the field of robotics, mechatronics, 3D modeling software, or automation.

  • Proficient in modern software development (e.g. python, ROS, github, docker, etc)

  • Ability to communicate effectively and efficiently both verbally and in writing


WHO WE ARE:


We spend our days building robotic systems, developing complex assembly intelligence software, and designing the next generation of circular products for our customers. Given the importance of working hands-on with physical systems, we are a 100% in-person team collaboratively working in our industrial space in Chantilly, VA, down the road from the largest data center market in the world.  Our facility includes a variety of robots, CNC milling machines, 3D printers, and all the tools needed to build and test our products. It is important to us that anyone on our team that is interested in learning how to use our various pieces of equipment and machinery is taught and can gain the skills and appreciation for making physical things.   


While we are primarily funded by our work with Fortune 100 companies, we are also supported by amazing backers like Elemental Excelerator and Techstars. 


THINGS TO KNOW:

  • We’re a small collaborative team with big ambitions, and there’s a good amount of context-switching. We expect people to be autonomous and drive their own work to completion.

  • We are a profitable business that is primarily funded from customer revenue, which means we are scrappy and looking to build a great sustainable company for years to come.

  • As a growing company and startup, priorities may shift as customer or business requirements change. We strive to empower individuals with context and decision-making power to meet this need.
