Robotics Lab Support Engineer

Robotics Lab Support Engineer
Professional Summary
Robotics Engineer with hands-on experience in teleoperation, robotic manipulation,
mechanical fabrication, electrical prototyping, computer vision, data collection, software
deployment, and robotics laboratory operations. Skilled at preparing safe, repeatable
experiment setups and supporting robotics teams from hardware configuration through
teleoperation, data validation, and system evaluation.

Core Skills
Teleoperation, Data, and Robotics
Experience with teleoperation and data collection using UMI and other teleoperation
platforms.
Performed tasks ranging from pick-and-place to complex manipulation and assembly.
Experience with structured data capture, annotation, review, and quality control.
Basic understanding of robotic manipulation, imitation learning, computer vision, and
robotics-training datasets.
Experience with systemic policy evaluations, results analysis, and reporting.
Sensors and Vision Systems
Experience with camera calibration, sensor synchronization, coordinate frames, and
stereo/RGB-D data.
Supported vision-based robotics projects using stereo-camera and other camera
systems.
Collected structured datasets and created controlled variation using lighting
techniques and diPerent visual conditions.

Robotics Lab Operations
Prepare robots, workstations, sensors, peripherals, power connections, and test areas
for experiments.
Support Lab Technicians and Robotics Engineers with setup, readiness checks, and
experiment execution.
Manage setup changes between experiments and troubleshoot basic equipment or
connectivity issues.
Maintain inventory and coordinate incoming and outgoing parts and experimental
equipment.
Work with vendors on ordering, shipping, warranty, service, and returns.
Coordinate with Facilities Management and Security on building and room use, power,
storage, receiving, and access.
Maintain logs, test notes, issue records and handoP documentation
Follow lab, industrial, equipment-safety, and data-collection SOPs.

Mechanical Design and Fabrication
Design camera mounts, brackets, fixtures, and custom hardware for robotics
experiments.
Use CAD, 3D printing, power tools, and mechanical equipment to prototype and install
components.
Modify and iterate physical hardware to improve stability, positioning, usability, and
repeatability.

Software, Simulation, and Deployment
Work comfortably in Ubuntu/Linux environments using terminal-based workflows.
Use basic Linux, Git, Python, and Bash to run scripts, inspect logs, and review, clean, or
validate data.
Support basic ROS 2 workflows and software deployment to physical robots.
Follow SOPs for configuration checks, model deployment, software validation, and
troubleshooting.
Configure or validate simulation environments, including exposure to Isaac Sim.
Bridge software workflows with physical robot operation, testing, and system
integration.

Professional Value
