Responsibilities
- System Deployment & Integration: Complete software system installation and deployment; perform on-site software/hardware integration and commissioning between the robotics system and the customer’s existing systems (WMS, PLC, network equipment, etc.), resolving protocol, interface, and data-flow compatibility issues to ensure correct interfacing between software versions and hardware equipment
- Testing & Acceptance: Perform automation process validation and integration testing, including joint debugging with the customer’s system team, to confirm the system operates as expected in real-world scenarios, covering exception and boundary condition testing; complete functional and performance acceptance, and participate in final project acceptance and sign-off, on schedule
- Implementation Execution & On-Site Troubleshooting: Drive on-site software implementation according to plan; identify and resolve software bugs, communication anomalies, and data synchronization issues, often requiring troubleshooting across software, network, and hardware layers; report daily project progress and synchronize key information with internal teams and clients; systematically manage on-site technical assessments and risk analysis
- Customer Training & Go-Live Support: Prepare system configuration documentation and operating manuals; train customer technical and operations staff; provide technical support through go-live
- Post-Launch Support: Continuously monitor system performance after launch, resolve issues as they arise, and provide ongoing remote or on-site technical support
- Cross-Team Collaboration & Feedback Loop: Serve as the bridge between on-site implementation and back-end R&D teams, relaying field issues and driving product iteration and improvement
