Primary Responsibilities:
Preferred Experience and Skills:
Primary Responsibilities:
- Support the execution of robotics projects at multiple international sites (Germany, Ireland, Italy, France, Singapore), contributing to planning, implementation, and delivery.
- Collaborate with cross-functional site teams to clearly define project scope, objectives, and deliverables that align with both business and technical needs.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with site teams, stakeholders, and vendors to anticipate challenges, resolve roadblocks, and ensure successful project outcomes across a range of environments—including highly regulated sectors like Pharma, biotech, or similar.
- Articulate the value proposition and expected benefits of robotics projects, incorporating productivity, efficiency, safety, and (where relevant) compliance considerations.
- Manage vendor and third-party relationships covering selection, procurement, and ongoing evaluation of products and services, while ensuring vendors can meet specific requirements of regulated industries if applicable.
- Provide hands-on technical leadership to fill capability gaps within project teams, from requirement gathering to solution delivery and troubleshooting.
- Identify and assess opportunities for future robotics projects, leveraging best practices from both industrial and regulated environments to build a long-term project pipeline (e.g., 2027 and beyond).
- Regularly gather input and feedback from each site to guide the organization’s robotics and automation strategy—addressing both operational value and compliance readiness where necessary.
- Lead and oversee small-scale proof-of-concept (PoC) projects, including piloting new technologies and approaches in various settings such as manufacturing, logistics, or laboratory environments.
- Travel as needed, primarily within Europe and occasionally to international sites, with an ability to adapt to diverse regulatory requirements and operational cultures.
Preferred Experience and Skills:
- Background in robotics engineering, sales engineering, applications engineering, or similar functions, ideally with experience across leading robotics platforms (e.g., Kuka, FANUC, ABB, UR, MiR, Otto, etc.).
- Proven track record of deploying robotics in manufacturing, logistics, or laboratory processes—converting operational needs into effective automated solutions.
- Experience working in regulated industries (such as Pharma, biotechnology, or medical devices) is an advantage, particularly familiarity with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), ISO, or FDA requirements, and validation processes (IQ/OQ/PQ).
- Competence in handling project documentation, risk assessments, and compliance documentation when required.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work across technical and non-technical teams worldwide.
- Adaptive and open mindset, comfortable working in multicultural and multidisciplinary teams, and in both regulated and unregulated environments.
