Systems Engineer - #1170860

The Systems Engineer is responsible for the technical coordination and integration of the overall Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) system, ensuring seamless interaction between robots, fleet management software, infrastructure systems, and facility equipment.

This role focuses primarily on system-level integration, operational workflows, infrastructure coordination, and deployment planning.

The Systems Engineer is expected to understand the operational capabilities, interfaces, constraints, and deployment requirements of the AMR and Fleet Management System sufficiently to design, coordinate, and support a complete customer solution.

The role acts as a bridge between the product engineering teams, project delivery teams, contractors, consultants, and customer stakeholders.

The Systems Engineer works closely with software engineers, robotics engineers, network engineers, subcontractors, facility stakeholders, and project managers to ensure that all system components operate reliably, safely, and in accordance with project specifications.

Key Responsibilities

• System Solution Ownership: Lead technical solution design across mobile equipment, PLC-controlled stations, automated doors, lifts, wireless networks, and customer IT/OT systems.
• Requirements & Specification: Convert user requirements and complex operational workflows into FDS, interface matrices, sequence/state diagrams, and verifiable test criteria.
• Interface Management: Run technical interface workshops with clients, vendors, and contractors to clarify boundary conditions, handshakes, timeouts, and error-recovery modes.
• Integration Literacy: Configure and manage communications using APIs (REST/MQTT), industrial protocols (Modbus TCP, OPC UA, Profinet), or digital I/O.
• Capacity & Throughput Sizing: Conduct cycle time analyses, capacity studies, and operational availability planning considering physical constraints and bottlenecks.
• Site Commissioning Support: Support Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), and cross-subsystem troubleshooting onsite.

Qualifications & Core Competencies

• Education: Degree or Diploma in Systems, Mechatronics, Electrical, Mechanical, Computer, or Automation Engineering (or equivalent applied experience).
• Experience: 5+ years in systems integration, complex electromechanical projects, industrial controls, or intralogistics.
• IT/OT Network Literacy: Solid working knowledge of IP networking (VLANs, firewalls), server environments (Linux/Windows), databases, and industrial communication protocols.
