The Opportunity:
Adecco is partnering with the client who is a global innovation center dedicated to advancing smart mobility, autonomous systems, and robotics, shaping the future of mobility through cutting-edge R&D, advanced manufacturing, and next-generation technology development.
My client is hiring a Senior Robotics Project Lead to drive our R&D initiatives in advanced pick-and-place automation. This role will oversee our corp-lab operations, lead cross-functional teams, and collaborate closely with NTU professors to integrate cutting-edge vision, AI, and control systems with industrial robots.

• Work location: West
• Work hours: Mon-Fri, 9am - 6pm

The Job:

• Design, implement, and optimize robotic manipulation systems for industrial automation tasks such as pick-and-place and assembly.
• Develop control algorithms or feedback loops for precise motion control using force/torque sensors, vision systems, and actuators.
• Design 2D/3D vision systems and AI-driven perception pipelines for object detection, pose estimation, and grasp validation.
• Create and test motion planning algorithms including path generation, obstacle avoidance, and multi-arm coordination.
• Integrate and calibrate industrial sensors, cameras, and robot arms using platforms such as ABB, Yaskawa, or KUKA.
• Conduct simulations and validations using ROS, Gazebo, Isaac Sim, or similar environments to ensure deployment-readiness.
• Perform robot teaching, trajectory optimization, and real-world testing of robotic systems.
• Document software, test reports, and system configuration for repeatable deployments and knowledge sharing.

The Talent:

• Master's or Ph.D. in Robotics, Computer Engineering, Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in robotic manipulator development, system integration, or automation R&D.
• Proven expertise in one or more of the following: real-time control (PID, MPC), computer vision (OpenCV, PCL), motion planning (RRT, OMPL), or AI (TensorFlow/PyTorch).
• Proficient in programming with Python and/or C/C++ for robotics systems, including experience with industrial robot SDKs (ABB, KUKA, etc.).
• Experience working with ROS 1/2, Linux OS, and simulation platforms (e.g., Gazebo, MuJoCo, Isaac Sim).
• Strong communication and documentation skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally in an R&D team.

Next Steps:

• Prepare your updated resume (please include your current salary package with full breakdown such as base, incentives, annual wage supplement, etc.) and expected package.
• Apply through this application or send your resume to Joseph.Cho@adecco.com in MS Word Copy. We'd love to hear from you!
• We regret that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
