Robotic Crane Systems Integration Engineer

Job Description

Job Description

You’ll join a certified robot integrator known for deploying industrial automation across major platforms including FANUC, KUKA, and ABB. In this role, you’ll specialize in crane systems integration within manufacturing environments, shaping concepts into production-ready solutions.

A day in the role

Morning might start with Sales and Mechanical Design Engineers, refining crane concepts—end-of-arm tooling, fixtures, conveyance systems, safety equipment, and other crane components—so proposals translate cleanly into executable designs. From there, you’ll move into hands-on setup from system defaults, configuring tool data, frame data, and TCP with precision. When vision is part of the cell, you’ll integrate and calibrate both tooling-mounted and fixed cameras, applying vision tools and calibration procedures. In the afternoon, you’ll stage and implement crane systems at our integration facility, preparing for a smooth customer site deployment. When it’s go time, you’ll own the onsite startup, ensuring safe, reliable operation under real-world conditions.
