This Position reports to:
Global P&C Manager, BL Industry
In this role, you will transform the AMMR product into scalable, repeatable, and technically robust customer solutions. You will own how AMMR is applied in real customer environments by defining reference solutions, application architectures, and technical standards, while translating customer use cases into actionable technical specifications for R&D, Global Solution Centers (GSCs), and delivery teams. Your work ensures AMMR solutions can be reliably designed, deployed, and scaled across industries and geographies.
You will be mainly accountable for:
* Defining and maintaining reference architectures, standard AMMR solution templates, and technical standards across target applications (e.g., intralogistics, machine tending, service robotics).
* Translating customer use cases into clear application requirements, system specifications, and interface definitions, acting as the technical authority on solution feasibility and performance.
* Driving development of new applications, solution variants, and enhancements, providing structured feedback to R&D and GSCs, and supporting pilots and lighthouse projects to validate architectures.
* Serving as the cross‑functional technical interface between AMMR Product, R&D, GSCs, LECs, and delivery teams, enabling execution teams with documentation, guidance, and reusable solution templates.
* Leading and developing a team of AMMR Application Engineers (where applicable), ensuring consistent engineering practices, documentation standards, and reuse of validated solutions.
Your background:
* Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Robotics, Automation, Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field.
* Strong systems‑engineering mindset with the ability to think in architectures, interfaces, constraints, and standards.
* Proven experience in application engineering, solution architecture, or systems engineering for robotics, industrial automation, or complex electromechanical systems.
* Demonstrated ability to translate customer use cases into deployable technical solutions and define reference architectures, solution templates, and system designs.
* Hands‑on exposure to pilots, PoCs, or early deployments with a focus on standardization and reusability.
* Strong understanding of robot systems integration (hardware, software, controls, safety).
* Knowledge of interfaces between AMRs/robots, peripherals, and IT/OT systems.
* Understanding of application‑level performance drivers such as cycle time, robustness, and repeatability.
* Ability to produce clear, reusable technical documentation and act as a technical authority with R&D, CRCs, GSCs, and execution teams.
