What is the difference between Senior Robotics Engineer Localization vs Robotics Software Engineer?

AspectSenior Robotics Engineer LocalizationRobotics Software Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's or Master's in Robotics, Computer Science, or related; experience in localization algorithmsBachelor's or Master's in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related; programming skills
Work EnvironmentRobotics development labs, field testing, autonomous vehicle companiesSoftware development teams, robotics companies, research labs
Industry UsageAutonomous vehicles, mobile robots, dronesRobotics applications across industries, including manufacturing and service robots

While both roles involve robotics software development, Senior Robotics Engineer Localization specializes in developing algorithms for determining a robot's position within its environment, often requiring expertise in sensor fusion and mapping. Robotics Software Engineers focus broadly on creating software for robot control, perception, and navigation. The localization role is more specialized, whereas the software engineer role covers a wider range of robotics software development tasks.

Job description

Title: Robotics Engineer
Location: Orland Park, IL
Hire Type: Direct Hire
Compensation: $100,000 - $120,000 (Flexible based on experience)
Full Benefits

Overview:
We are seeking a Senior Robotics Engineer with strong hands-on experience in advanced automation systems, particularly in small-scale precision assembly and packaging applications. This individual will play a key role in designing, building, and deploying robotic systems from concept through installation, while driving innovation and supporting continuous improvement initiatives.

Job Duties:

  • Lead complex engineering projects from concept through design, build, run-off, and installation in a manufacturing environment
  • Apply advanced engineering principles to solve technical challenges and improve system performance
  • Plan, manage, and execute technical project deliverables within established timelines and budgets
  • Design and implement robotic systems for precision assembly and packaging applications
  • Provide technical leadership, guidance, and mentorship to junior engineers
  • Collaborate with internal teams, customers, and suppliers to deliver high-quality automation solutions
  • Deliver technical presentations and communicate project updates to stakeholders
  • Research and implement new technologies, tools, and best practices to enhance operational efficiency

Qualifications:


  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics, or Controls Engineering preferred)
  • 8+ years of experience in robotics and automation engineering
  • Minimum 5 years of hands-on, full lifecycle application engineering experience (design → build → factory run-off/installation)
  • Proven experience with advanced robotics and vision systems for small assembly and packaging
  • Hands-on experience with precision robotic assembly (e.g., watches, medical devices, handheld products, or similar micro-assembly applications)
  • Experience with six-axis and/or SCARA robots in production environments
  • Strong background in custom End-of-Arm Tooling (EOAT) and electromechanical system design
  • Proficiency in 3D CAD design (SolidWorks, Siemens NX/Unigraphics, or similar)
  • Experience integrating robotics with vision systems and automated processes


Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or genetic information.
