Job description

Hiring: Software Engineer - Robotics & Automation (100% Travel Role)
Join a Cutting-Edge Robotics Company Driving the Future of Automation
We're seeking a hands-on, high-impact Software Engineer who thrives in dynamic environments and is excited by the challenge of bringing advanced automation systems to life across customer sites nationwide.
This is not your typical desk role-you'll be on the front lines, troubleshooting, testing, and deploying complex robotics and hardware systems while working directly with customers and cross-functional teams.
What You'll Do
  • Diagnose, troubleshoot, and test electrical, networking, and hardware systems in real-world environments
  • Integrate and connect customer systems with third-party platforms for seamless operation and online validation
  • Execute station testing to ensure optimal system performance and production readiness
  • Run end-to-end order testing and support manufacturing workflows in live environments
  • Lead customer handoff processes, ensuring systems are fully operational and approved
  • Collaborate closely with engineering, production, and customer teams to deliver results under tight timelines
What You Bring
  • Strong experience in robotics, automation, or hardware troubleshooting
  • Hands-on expertise with test equipment, electronics, and oscilloscopes
  • Solid understanding of networking protocols and system integration
  • Experience in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, mechatronics, or related fields
  • Ability to operate in a 50% hardware / 50% software environment
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, or similar
• Bonus Points
  • Experience in robotics automation systems
  • Prior work in manufacturing or production environments
  • Exposure to system validation, commissioning, or deployment
Work Environment & Travel
  • 100% travel role - live and work at different customer sites nationwide
  • Relocation to a new project location every 3-4 months
  • Must live within 30 minutes of a major metro airport (East Coast preferred)
  • Fast-paced, deadline-driven environment with flexibility for off-hours and weekends
Why This Role
  • Work with a leading robotics and automation company
  • Gain exposure to cutting-edge technology and real-world deployments
  • Accelerate your career with hands-on experience across multiple industries and sites
  • Be part of a team that is reshaping the future of manufacturing
Job Type & Location
This is a Contract position based out of Carteret, NJ.
Pay and Benefits
The pay range for this position is $27.00 - $31.00/hr.
Eligibility requirements apply to some benefits and may depend on your job classification and length of employment. Benefits are subject to change and may be subject to specific elections, plan, or program terms. If eligible, the benefits available for this temporary role may include the following:
• Medical, dental & vision
• Critical Illness, Accident, and Hospital
• 401(k) Retirement Plan - Pre-tax and Roth post-tax contributions available
• Life Insurance (Voluntary Life & AD&D for the employee and dependents)
• Short and long-term disability
• Health Spending Account (HSA)
• Transportation benefits
• Employee Assistance Program
• Time Off/Leave (PTO, Vacation or Sick Leave)
Workplace Type
This is a fully onsite position in Carteret,NJ.
Application Deadline
This position is anticipated to close on May 29, 2026.
