As a System Engineer, you will be part of an engineering team based in Bologna and will initially collaborate with our R&D team in Sweden to gain in-depth knowledge of our solutions.

Ultimately, you will be responsible for driving the execution of advanced material-handling robotic technologies in Sicily.

In this role, you will be the key interface between the customer and the engineering team, taking the lead in troubleshooting, system startup, and issue resolution. You will collaborate with R&D teams to ensure that customer feedback is effectively integrated into the system, driving continuous improvement and performance optimization.

As a System Engineer, you are responsible for ensuring that the system is fully defined, coherent, compliant, and ready for acceptance at system level.

You act as the engineering authority on system definition and maturity, maintaining alignment between requirements, architecture, design, testing, and contractual commitments.

The role requires a strong holistic understanding of complex automation systems and the ability to ensure consistency across all technical domains and project phases.

Main responsibilities will include:

• Monitor system performance using diagnostic tools and software, implementing preventative measures to improve reliability and minimize downtime;
• Identify opportunities for system optimization and improvement, contributing to the enhancement of both current and future systems;
• Own and maintain system-level documentation, architecture, and configuration, ensuring full alignment between design, implementation, and as-built system;
• Ensure complete traceability between requirements, design, testing, FMEA, and acceptance criteria, guaranteeing that all requirements are covered, risks are identified and mitigated, and evidence is available;
• Own system-level compliance, certifications, and quality documentation, ensuring adherence to applicable standards and contractual requirements;
• Define, monitor, and follow up system validation activities (rig testing, FAT, site validation) to ensure coverage of requirements, alignment with acceptance criteria, and proper documentation of results;
• Maintain a clear and structured view of system maturity and readiness, identifying gaps, inconsistencies, and risks and driving their resolution before customer acceptance;
• Ensure that all required evidence for customer acceptance (including test reports, certificates, manuals, and validation records) is complete, consistent, and properly consolidated.

What you need to be successful:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or equivalent, and at least 5 years of relevant professional work experience
• Strong understanding of system engineering principles, robotics, and automation technologies
• Fluency in the English language, both written and spoken
