Robotics Engineer

Siemens Healthineers AG; United States; On-site; USD 90,000 - 130,000; Full time

Job summary

Siemens Healthineers AG is seeking a Robotics Engineer to design, implement, and verify robotic control, safety, sensing, and interface functions for the ARIES program. The role emphasizes deterministic, explainable, and auditable robotic behavior in a real-time medical robotics environment, including trajectory generation and hardware/software integration.

You will work on real-time control logic, trajectory methods, and safety filtering, with a focus on simulation and hardware-in-the-loop

Qualifications

• Design, implement, and validate robotic control logic for real-time actuation, safety-supervised motion, and hardware/software integration.
• Develop real-time trajectory generation methods including spline interpolation and motion profiles.
• Design and tune control strategies for force-based command modulation and safety filtering.

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, and validate robotic control logic for real-time actuation, safety-supervised motion, and hardware/software integration.
• Develop and implement real-time trajectory generation methods, including spline interpolation, motion profiles, and joint-space/task-space planning.
• Design and tune admittance/impedance control strategies for force-based command modulation and safety filtering.
• Use estimator outputs, signal processing, and diagnostic data to detect unsafe, degraded, or unreliable robotic behavior.
• Expose hardware signals, device states, sensor status, communication quality, and diagnostics through clear reusable interfaces.
• Validate robotic functions in simulation, hardware-in-the-loop setups
