Job Description
Position Summary: As a graduate automation engineer, you will be working with a small team of engineers in a fast-paced environment to maintain and assist with the development of automation solutions that streamline processes in a laboratory setting. Although based in Dandenong South in Victoria, you can expect some interstate travel as part of this role.
Key Responsibilities
* Robotic Automation System Design and Development:
o Design, prototype, and manage robotic systems, encompassing mechanical, electrical, and software elements.
o Optimise systems for peak performance, precision, and cost-efficiency.
* Programming and Control:
o Develop control algorithms for robot trajectory planning and object manipulation.
o Develop, test, and refine software for diverse robotic applications.
* System Integration:
o Facilitate the smooth incorporation of robotic systems within commercial laboratory settings.
o Construct interfaces and communication protocols to integrate with other machinery/instruments and Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS).
o Diagnose and remedy any integration-related complications.
* User Interface (UI) Design:
o Develop intuitive User Interfaces (UI) that streamline process management for the automated systems.
* Testing and Validation:
o Perform exhaustive testing and validation of robotic systems to certify compliance with performance, quality, and safety benchmarks.
o Interpret data and refine design and controls based on feedback.
* Documentation:
o Generate and sustain comprehensive technical documentation, such as design outlines, operational manuals, and troubleshooting procedures for robotic systems.
Qualifications
* Bachelor's Degree in Robotics/Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a comparable discipline.
* Experience in designing, prototyping, testing and debugging robotic systems.
* Proficient in programming languages such as C/C++ and Python.
* Skilled in 3D CAD modelling software such as SolidWorks or Fusion360.
* Experience working with microcontrollers such as ESP32 and STM32 is highly desirable.
* Knowledge in circuit design and PCB design is highly desirable.
* Ability to convey complex ideas and collaborate effectively with team members.
* Acquaintance with safety protocols and best practices concerning robotic systems.
* Eagerness to thrive in a fast-paced and ever-evolving work environment.
