  • Experience with ergonomic analysis, scenario planning, or process simulation for operational improvement
  • Familiarity developing process standards and simulation best practices
  • Ability to clearly communicate complex technical concepts to both expert and non-technical audiences
What You Will Be Doing Daily Responsibilities:
100% Hands On
  • Develop, test, and optimize virtual simulations for robotics solutions and facility layouts
  • Analyze process flows, assembly operations, and new workflows to drive continuous improvement
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to iterate designs and implementation strategies
  • Establish standards and enhance best practices across the simulation team
  • Communicate insights and actionable recommendations to project teams and key decision makers
The Offer
  • Competitive base salary (approx. $117,000-$160,000/year)
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Paid Time Off (PTO)
  • 401(k) with employer match
