Robotics Lab Support Engineer Professional Summary Robotics Engineer with hands-on experience in teleoperation, robotic manipulation, mechanical fabrication, electrical prototyping, computer vision, data collection, software deployment, and robotics laboratory operations. Skilled at preparing safe, repeatable experiment setups and supporting robotics teams from hardware configuration through teleoperation, data validation, and system evaluation. Core Skills Teleoperation, Data, and Robotics Experience with teleoperation and data collection using UMI and other teleoperation platforms. Performed tasks ranging from pick-and-place to complex manipulation and assembly. Experience with structured data capture, annotation, review, and quality control. Basic understanding of robotic manipulation, imitation learning, computer vision, and robotics-training datasets. Experience with systemic policy evaluations, results analysis, and reporting. Sensors and Vision Systems Experience with camera calibration, sensor synchronization, coordinate frames, and stereo/RGB-D data. Supported vision-based robotics projects using stereo-camera and other camera systems. Collected structured datasets and created controlled variation using lighting techniques and diPerent visual conditions. Robotics Lab Operations Prepare robots, workstations, sensors, peripherals, power connections, and test areas for experiments. Support Lab Technicians and Robotics Engineers with setup, readiness checks, and experiment execution. Manage setup changes between experiments and troubleshoot basic equipment or connectivity issues. Maintain inventory and coordinate incoming and outgoing parts and experimental equipment. Work with vendors on ordering, shipping, warranty, service, and returns. Coordinate with Facilities Management and Security on building and room use, power, storage, receiving, and access. Maintain logs, test notes, issue records and handoP documentation Follow lab, industrial, equipment-safety, and data-collection SOPs. Mechanical Design and Fabrication Design camera mounts, brackets, fixtures, and custom hardware for robotics experiments. Use CAD, 3D printing, power tools, and mechanical equipment to prototype and install components. Modify and iterate physical hardware to improve stability, positioning, usability, and repeatability. Software, Simulation, and Deployment Work comfortably in Ubuntu/Linux environments using terminal-based workflows. Use basic Linux, Git, Python, and Bash to run scripts, inspect logs, and review, clean, or validate data. Support basic ROS 2 workflows and software deployment to physical robots. Follow SOPs for configuration checks, model deployment, software validation, and troubleshooting. Configure or validate simulation environments, including exposure to Isaac Sim. Bridge software workflows with physical robot operation, testing, and system integration. Professional Value Bridges software, mechanical, electrical, teleoperation, data, and lab operations work. Improves experiment reliability through disciplined configuration, documentation, inventory, and SOP execution. Supports robotics programs through vendor management, cross-functional coordination, facilities planning, and technical problem solving. Use of AI Technology Unless expressly authorized in the interview/skill set validation instructions, candidates may not use AI tools or other third-party assistance during an interview or assessment to generate or provide substantive answers to interview questions. Candidates should answer organically in their own words, drawing on their own knowledge, skills, and experience. Failure to adhere to these expectations may result in the candidate being removed from consideration. #J-18808-Ljbffr Optimal Solution Company
