End Effector Integration Engineer
The hands of a humanoid robot are yours to design.
Your Role & Responsibilities
Own the end-effector strategy across different industrial robotics applications.
Analyze customer workflows and operational requirements to identify the most suitable endeffector solutions.
Evaluate and select commercially available end-effectors including grippers, suction systems, hooks, tool changers, robotic hands, cameras, and specialized tooling.
Drive standardization and platform thinking by reducing the number of end-effector variants while maximizing use-case coverage.
Define requirements for future end-effector solutions based on customer needs, product requirements, and engineering constraints.
Coordinate and manage relationships with external suppliers, technology partners, and development vendors.
Support feasibility studies, proof-of-concepts, customer evaluations, and pilot deployments.
Define evaluation criteria, benchmarking methodologies, and trade-off analyses for endeffector technologies.
Develop business cases and technical recommendations for buy-vs-build decisions.
Track emerging technologies and market trends in manipulation, grasping, vacuum handling, tactile sensing, dexterous hands, and industrial tooling.
Ensure successful integration of selected end-effectors into the robotic platform
