eMASCO

Robotics Engineer designs, develops, and implements robotic systems and applications that operate autonomously or with minimal human intervention. They integrate mechanical, electrical, and software components to create robots for industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, automotive, and defense, and are responsible for programming, testing, and maintaining these systems to ensure efficient and safe operation. They also research and improve robotic technologies, collaborating with engineers and stakeholders to optimise performance and integrate robots into production processes.
