A robotics engineer designs prototypes, builds and tests machines, and maintains the software that controls them. They also conduct research to find the most cost-efficient and safest process to manufacture their robotic systems.

• Conduct research to determine the parameters of a robotic application
• Design robotic systems from start to finish
• Develop and implement software that will control robots
• Create prototypes and work on necessary components (e.g. microprocessors)
• Develop cost-effective and efficient processes to produce the machines
• Perform integration tests and quality control
• Apply machine learning techniques
• Create complete documentation for robotic systems
• Monitor the use of robotic systems and optimize their functionality
• Troubleshoot defects in the robot design
• Keep abreast of advancements in robotics and relevant fields of engineering
