ROBOTICS AUTOMATION ENGINEER

Location: Germany
Start: September/October
Working: Primarily onsite, with some hybrid flexibility
Positions: 1-3
Industry: Aerospace / Advanced Manufacturing

The Role

We are looking for experienced Manufacturing Automation, Robotics and Controls Engineers to support a major manufacturing transformation programme in Speyer.

The objective is to move a traditionally labour-intensive manufacturing environment towards significantly greater use of automation, robotics and automated manufacturing cells, reducing manual processes, improving efficiency and lowering manufacturing costs.

We are particularly interested in engineers who have personally delivered automation projects on the shop floor, taking manufacturing cells from concept and planning through to implementation and production.

Candidates from automotive or other highly automated manufacturing environments would be particularly relevant.

Responsibilities

• Design, plan and implement automated manufacturing cells
• Introduce robots and cobots into existing manufacturing environments
• Identify and automate previously manual manufacturing processes
• Develop automated component routes and production processes
• Integrate robotics and automation across multiple manufacturing stages
• Take automation cells from concept through to production
• Support installation, commissioning and introduction of new automated equipment
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual labour and manufacturing costs
• Improve production efficiency, repeatability and throughput
• Work closely with production, manufacturing and engineering teams
• Drive automation projects directly on the manufacturing shop floor
• Support automation across areas including machining, pressing, surface treatment and other production processes

Skills & Experience Needed

• Proven experience in manufacturing automation / robotics
• Hands-on experience introducing robots and/or cobots into production
• Experience designing, planning and implementing manufacturing cells
• Demonstrable experience taking automation projects into live production
• Experience automating manual manufacturing processes
• Strong understanding of manufacturing processes and shop-floor environments
• Experience with robotics integration and automated production systems
• Ideally experience within automotive, aerospace or another highly automated manufacturing environment
• Hands-on, practical approach rather than purely maintenance-focused experience

  If you think this could be suitable, please send me your CV and I will call you. 

  Kind regards
