Senior Solution Development Engineer

About the Role at RobCo

At RobCo, we automate the ordinary, so humans can do the extraordinary. We are looking for an ambitious Senior Solution Development Engineer to help us establish RobCo as leading provider of automation solutions. In this key role, you act as the critical technical bridge turning visionary customer requirements into robust, field-ready robotic system architectures across our US deployments.

Your Responsibilities

• Translate customer requirements provided by Sales Engineering into technically feasible, simulation-validated solution concepts and robust system architectures
• Perform simulation, modeling, prototyping, and engineering analysis to rigorously validate design decisions
• Develop detailed mechanical, electrical, controls, and software designs tailored for complex robotic system solutions
• Evaluate design alternatives and technical tradeoffs to make data-driven, scalable engineering recommendations
• Define clear system requirements, interfaces, assumptions, constraints, and acceptance criteria
• Identify and mitigate technical and execution risks early in the design cycle
• Lead structured design reviews to surface potential design gaps early
• Produce comprehensive Solution Development Packages, including approved concepts, simulation results, risk assessments, and BOMs

We're Looking for Someone Who Has

• Completed vocational training or a degree in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Automation, or comparable experience
• Several years of experience (5+ years) in robotic system design, simulation, and multi-disciplinary solution engineering
• Proven track record in mechanical, electrical, or controls design, alongside system simulation and risk mitigation frameworks
• Strong ability to evaluate complex technical tradeoffs and communicate risks clearly
• Very good English skills (German is a plus)

Why Join RobCo

Develop modular, software-defined robotics solutions that set new standards in automation, as part of a fast-growing scale-up with flat hierarchies, Wellpass membership, flexible working hours, and regular team events.
