Robotics Engineer, Manufacturing Automation
About this role
Anduril Industries seeks a Robotics Engineer to design, integrate, and deploy industrial automation systems across manufacturing facilities. You'll drive the full lifecycle of robotic solutions—from concept through production—while establishing company-wide standards for safety, programming, and system integration.
What you'll do
- Select, design, and integrate industrial robots and cobots for manufacturing applications from concept to production deployment
- Develop, optimize, and debug robot programs including motion planning, safety configurations, and vision-guided operations
- Specify and integrate end-of-arm tooling (grippers, sensors, custom tools) with robot systems
- Design robot cell layouts with safety enclosures, work envelopes, and required infrastructure
- Create and validate simulation models to verify reach, cycle time, and collision scenarios before deployment
- Establish and enforce internal standards for robotic system design, programming, safety, and integration across the organization
What they're looking for
- FANUC and UR robot programming and commissioning
- Robot simulation software (ROBOGUIDE, UR Virtual Controller, Visual Components)
- Robot kinematics, dynamics, motion control, and path planning
- Industrial safety standards (ISO 10218, RIA R15.06) and safety function implementation (STO, SLS, SS1)
- EOAT selection, design, and integration (pneumatic, electric, vacuum grippers)
- Robot drive and servo motor configuration and troubleshooting
- EtherNet/IP and Profinet networking
- PLC programming (preferred: Allen Bradley, Siemens)
Benefits
- Competitive equity grants included in full-time offers
- Top-tier benefits package for full-time employees
- Opportunity to define manufacturing automation at national scale
- Cross-functional collaboration with controls engineers and mechanical designers
- Work with cutting-edge defense technology and AI-powered systems
