What is the difference between Robotics Computer Engineer vs Robotics Software Developer?

AspectRobotics Computer EngineerRobotics Software Developer
Required CredentialsBachelor's or higher in Computer Engineering, Robotics, or related fields; certifications in robotics or embedded systemsBachelor's or higher in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related fields; programming certifications
Work EnvironmentDesigning hardware-software integration, embedded systems, robotics hardwareDeveloping, testing, and maintaining robot software applications
Employer & Industry UsageManufacturing, automation, research labs, aerospaceResearch institutions, tech companies, automation firms

Robotics Computer Engineers focus on integrating hardware and software in robotic systems, while Robotics Software Developers primarily create and optimize software applications for robots. Both roles require strong programming skills, but the former emphasizes hardware-software interaction, whereas the latter centers on software development.

Do robotics computer engineers get paid well?

Robotics computer engineers typically earn competitive salaries due to their specialized skills in programming, hardware integration, and systems design. Salaries vary based on experience, location, and industry, but generally reflect the technical expertise required for developing and maintaining robotic systems.

Statement of the Job:
Standard Iron is a leading U.S.-based manufacturing partner specializing in metal fabrication, complex weldments, custom fuel & hydraulic tanks and architectural metals. With 90+ years of experience and seven advanced facilities across North America, we help our customers solve problems, not just fill orders. Whether you’re launching a new product, improving throughput, or optimizing for cost, we build solutions tailored to your needs.
Primary Job Focus
This role is heavily focused on robotic weld programming, weld process development, and weld quality optimization. Candidates must bring strong hands-on experience in robotic welding systems and weld parameter development.
Key Responsibilities:
.
  • Develop, program, and optimize robotic welding applications (e.g., FANUC, ABB, Yaskawa/Motoman, KUKA)
  • Perform robot teach pendant and/or offline programming for new and existing weld processes.
  • Establish and validate weld parameters (voltage, amperage, travel speed, wire feed speed, gas composition) to meet quality and productivity targets.
  • Program and optimize other CNC equipment (e.g., laser cutters, turret punches, press brakes, tube benders) using software like SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or nesting programs.
  • Develop, evaluate, and improve manufacturing processes for sheet metal fabrication, including laser cutting, punching, bending, forming, welding, and assembly.
  • Design and validate tooling, fixtures, and jigs to enhance precision and efficiency in fabrication operations.
  • Support New Product Introduction (NPI) by reviewing client designs for manufacturability (DFM), developing weld sequences, tooling requirements, and process documentation.
  • Troubleshoot production issues, perform root cause analysis, and implement corrective actions for quality and process problems. Troubleshoot robotic weld issues related to fit-up, distortion, porosity, spatter, lack of fusion, etc.
  • Analyze production workflows, identify bottlenecks, and implement lean manufacturing principles (e.g., Six Sigma, Kaizen) to reduce waste, improve cycle times, and increase throughput.
  • Collaborate with clients, sales, quality assurance, and production teams to ensure projects meet specifications, quality standards (e.g., ISO 9001/AS9100), and delivery schedules.
  • Contribute to continuous cost reduction initiatives.
  • Ensure compliance with safety regulations, environmental standards, and industry best practices.
  • Lead or participate in capital equipment justification, selection, and implementation projects. Interface with integrators and equipment suppliers for installation, startup, and upgrades of robotic weld cells
  • Train production staff on new processes and maintain accurate documentation for repeatability across contract runs.

Qualifications and Requirements
 
  • Associates or Bachelor’s degree in Welding Technology, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 3–7 years of experience in manufacturing engineering, preferably in sheet metal fabrication or contract manufacturing with an emphasis on programming industrial robots for welding applications
  • Strong knowledge of sheet metal processes (e.g., shearing, laser/plasma cutting, forming, MIG/TIG welding, finishing).
  • Proficiency in CAD/CAM software (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Nesting software) and ERP/MRP systems.
  • Experience with lean manufacturing tools, process optimization, and quality systems (e.g., PFMEA, control plans).
  • Excellent problem-solving skills with hands-on experience in root cause analysis and continuous improvement.
  • Ability to interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, and weld symbols (AWS standards preferred).
  • Ability to support multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
  • Familiarity with industry standards (e.g., AWS welding, ASTM materials) is a plus.

Preferred Skills
 
  • Experience with offline programming software (e.g., RoboGuide, RobotStudio, MotoSim, Delmia)
  • Experience with both Fanuc and ABB programming software
  • Knowledge of advanced welding technologies:
  • Vision-guided welding
  • Laser seam tracking
  • Through-arc seam tracking (TAST)
  • Adaptive welding system
  • Familiarity with welding codes and standards (AWS D1.1, ISO standards, etc.)
  • Ability to simulate weld paths, reach, and cycle times virtually.
  • Experience in Lean Six Sigma with a strong problem-solving and continuous improvement mindset
  • Experience in a contract manufacturing or job shop environment with variable production runs.
  • Knowledge of automation and robotics in fabrication.
  • An understanding of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T).
  • CAD/CAM experience.
