## Description

At the heart of product innovation and development, our Systems Engineering Department transforms market demands into safe, certifiable, and competitive solutions and architectures. By collaborating closely with software, hardware, safety, and certification teams, we ensure every product meets the highest standards while adapting to fast-evolving market needs. Our mission is to enable seamless human-robot collaboration and deliver solutions that are safe, compliant, and ready for the future. Join us to shape the next generation of human-robot systems by owning system-level requirements, integration, and alignment, with architectural responsibilities as needed. If you thrive in cross-functional teamwork and technical excellence, you'll find extraordinary opportunities with us.

Your Mission & Challenges

 * Program Safety Logic: Develop, test, and troubleshoot safety-related control logic using PLC programming per IEC 61131-3 (Structured Text, Ladder Diagram, Function Block Diagram) on established automation platforms

 * Integrate Safety Networks: Implement and commission industrial communication and safety networks (EtherCAT, PROFINET, FSoE, PROFIsafe, CIP Safety) together with I/O systems, fieldbus communication, sensors, actuators, and servo/motion control interfaces

 * Apply Robotics Fundamentals: Support robot integration by applying coordinate systems, Tool Center Point (TCP), and joint/Cartesian motion concepts, with exposure to industrial or collaborative robot kinematics and dynamics

 * Commission & Validate: Commission, debug, and validate machine safety functions in line with ISO 13849, IEC 62061, and IEC 61508, ensuring safety-critical software is properly verified

 * Collaborate Across Teams: Use Python, C++, and Git within cross-functional automation and robotics teams, contributing analysis, troubleshooting, and clear documentation
