Robotics Engineer
iO Associates have partnered with an innovative global company who are looking for an experienced Robotics Engineer for a permanent position at the company. The role is based in Vaud, Switzerland and fully on site with a competitive salary.

Experience required:

  • At least 5 years of relevant experience in control systems ( linear, nonlinear, optimal, robust, adaptive control ) and software development in the field of robotics
  • Experience with manipulator dynamics modelling ( Euler-Lagrange, Newton-Euler, Featherstone, etc )
  • Experience with multi-task inverse differential kinematics control of a manipulator ( floating-base / underactuated systems is a plus )
  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink for real-time control and data processing
  • Experience with robotics toolkits ( MathWorks Robotics Toolbox, ROS/ROS2, Gazebo, etc )
  • Experience with partial sensing techniques ( Kalman filters, Particle filters, etc. )
  • Experience with human robot interaction (Hand-guiding, impedance/admittance control, series elastic actuators control, etc )
  • Experience with software static test analysis, unit testing methods, model-based design, hardware-in-the-loop and rapid control-prototyping approaches
  • Experience with design of experiments or statistical analysis ( factor analysis, ANOVA, paired t-test, non-parametric methods, etc ), is a plus


What you will be working on?

  • Participate actively in the requirements specification, prototyping, design, development, test specification and verification of the system's motion and safety -related software
  • Lead the development, verification and validation of novel robotic algorithms for control of the manipulators and surgical instruments in motion and/or force
  • Design, prototype in the lab, implement and validate plant and control models for robotic manipulators and wristed instruments
  • Strongly drive the collaboration with the mechatronics teams to simulate, pre-test and co-design new kinematics and robotic components.
  • Give active support the development of test benches for algorithm and system verification. This concerns mechanical, electronics and software components
  • Improve the system performance by proposing and conducting experimental studies on design improvements (architecture, technology, state of the art algorithms)
  • Understand and comply with medical device regulations. This concerns design control, risk management, defect management, and change management processes
  • Be actively involved in cross-functional complaints investigations, CAPA and root cause analysis.
