Robotics Engineer

Houston, TX | Industrial Automation & Robotics

A growing automation and engineering firm is seeking a Robotics Engineer to support a rapidly expanding portfolio of manufacturing and industrial automation projects across North America.

This position offers the opportunity to work on a variety of robotics and automation projects from concept and simulation through design, programming, commissioning, and client interaction. The team has recently secured several large-scale manufacturing projects and is looking for an engineer who wants to be involved in the full project lifecycle rather than being limited to a single area of responsibility.

The environment is collaborative, entrepreneurial, and hands-on, giving engineers exposure to robotics, controls, automation, and advanced manufacturing technologies while working alongside experienced multidisciplinary engineering teams.

• Design, program, and integrate industrial robotic systems.
• Develop and validate robotic simulations and offline programming solutions.
• Support automation projects from concept development through commissioning and startup.
• Troubleshoot, optimize, and improve robotic manufacturing processes.
• Work directly with customers, vendors, and internal engineering teams throughout project execution.
• Support greenfield and brownfield automation projects across a range of manufacturing environments.
• Participate in factory acceptance testing, site commissioning, and startup activities.
• Travel to customer sites as required for project support and implementation.
  
  

• 3 years of experience in robotics, automation, or controls engineering.
• Experience programming and integrating industrial robots.
• Strong preference for ABB robotics experience.
• Engineers with FANUC, KUKA, Yaskawa/Motoman, or other industrial robotics experience are also encouraged to apply.
• Experience with robotic simulation and offline programming tools.
• Understanding of manufacturing automation, material handling, or production systems.
• Ability to troubleshoot robotic and automated systems independently.
• Strong communication skills and ability to interact directly with clients.
  
  

• ABB RobotStudio
• PLC and industrial controls experience
• SCADA or HMI systems exposure
• Manufacturing, assembly, material handling, packaging, painting, or process automation applications
• System integration or project engineering experience
• Commissioning and startup support
  
  

• Work on large-scale robotics and automation projects.
• Exposure to the complete project lifecycle from design through commissioning.
• Opportunity to work across multiple technologies rather than being pigeonholed into a single discipline.
• Direct interaction with clients and company leadership.
• Flexible, team-oriented culture with a high degree of autonomy.
• Strong project pipeline and significant growth opportunities.
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and overtime opportunities.
