Robotics engineers are in high demand - but what is the job really like?

[@WealthyChronicle]

Robotic surgery is seriously fascinating. It’s like something out of a sci-fi movie, but it’s real, and it's saving lives. Anyone else impressed by how this tech is evolving so fast? 🙌💡

[@SpaceCovai]

Robotics is tomorrow's technology. Robotics engineering has been giving opportunities for new generation

[@saurabhBmp]

Robotics engineering sounds like such an exciting and impactful career! My child’s journey with Moonpreneur introduced them to robotics early on, giving them hands-on experience and sparking their interest in this field. It's inspiring to see how these skills align with the growing demand for robotics engineers.

[@elingenierisimo]

We started this several years ago, following a childhood dream. Now we are living that dream in the best way, without having known before that everything was going to change so much in such a short time. Simply an extraordinary journey.

[@aaronalquiza9680]

as a software engineer, i've been dabbling into electronics and robotics little by little and i realize how MUCH i don't know and how excited i am to learn from the bottom all over again!

[@derbacksteinbacker4942]

Im a cnc machinist in Germany and just last week we comissioned our first robot that loads raw material into the machine and takes the finished parts out. Since shortage of skilled workers is a thing here, thats the only way we can sustain and grow our output. Where one person usually was managing 2 machines at max there will probably be one person managing 6 machines with robots in the future

[@everythingisfine9988]

The surgeons could be training surgery AI models without even realizing it

[@TheCarmacon]

Maybe not realizing it, but at least someone in the hospital has to know it. It is illegal to collect data in medical devices without the customer knowing the purpose and how and where it's processed. And yes, there are medical systems data systems out there that collect data to train all kinds of AIs.

[@tomaszkarwik6357]

well there are literal companies that have been developing AI suegical robots for years at this point. That was happening YEARS before chatGPT existed

[@urbanstrencan]

Robotics engineering is the field young people should focus on for the future, the new robotic tech is just amazing :) Great video

[@keenheat3335]

too bad, the industry only want experienced robotic engineers with years of experience but at the same time don't want to hire junior/graduate robotic engineers. It's almost if the industry is purposely creating a shortage even worse in the future by not hiring and training young engineer. I know plenty of grad that cannot get a job even after 1000s of applications. The industry is saying one thing but the way they are acting is completely different.

[@jackindex2912]

@@keenheat3335 I agree 1000% I am graduating this school year and I have not found a single entry level/junior robotics related engineering role in North America

[@tuckwaiyip9975]

​​​@@keenheat3335 I thought I am the weird one as I have the same thought since this news mentioned shortage but in fact the sector is very choosy ,no difference from semicon, I graduated as mechatronics engineer, with final year studying about robotics and kinematics ,but not able to find any job related to robotics. The situation here in my country is exactly the same as what you described. The sector only welcoming to those who have experience and actually those who get the job is those experienced job hopper that has at least 3 year experience or above. I managed to get my first job as graduate trainee in a well known US semiconductor conglomerate that is featured in news recently ,starting with alphabet I.I am not able to continue to convert to permanent position just because at that time the company is undergoing hiring freeze and retrenchment. The president in my department took decision to stop graduate trainee program and those who will end the program will be no longer allowed in company. No support given after contracts ends. Definitely, I feel no difference if you are working in other sector, you are just abandoned like trash. Till now, I still have no idea why the company would rather fire a fledging engineer and employ the new batches of graduate trainee.Honestly, it breaks my trust and I am totally disappointed with the tech industry as I worked my best and sacrifice my time same as those experienced former colleague. I will not devote my all to next company because it does not worth it.

[@alexanderokak5112]

@@keenheat3335 very true, experiencing this myself. Similar problem to general software engineering industry where companies that are chained to their stock valuations fire/don't hire graduates/juniors because investing in your own workforce it too long of a commitment, and SOME managers will bounce companies by the time it becomes an issue.

[@bills6009]

@@keenheat3335 The issue is liability. They don't want to face professional liability if they hire junior engineers.

currently majoring in Robotics engineering. For those wondering you just have to take all of the hard core classes of electrical, mechanical, and computer science and some extra major specific things. Get ahead in math or you cannot graduate in 4 years.

It possible since its teleoperated but it comes with technical challenges like latency and bandwidth issues, signal reliability, system redundancy and data privacy issues.

I definitely want to be a robotic engineer. Now if only tech employers in the US would get a clue and train people and not only allow the elite to do it.

[@User-imwnx151]

By 'only allowing elite' you mean having requirements so that only qualified people can work on the robots used for critical operations right? Lol

[@jackfreeman5935]

I'm interested in doing a career in robotics having been inspired by Sci-Fi movies as well as Japanese Anime but unfortunately I studied Business Management in University. I'm 37 now and I've decided to pursue a career despite not having studied at University. Is it possible for a career in the field at my age without a University backdrop and how do I begin from the beginning in the field of robotics? Any answer would be most appreciated. Thank you.

[@Zain-ez7we]

Really interest in it Currently doing mechanical engineering.

[@gregegg9134]

Currently an electronics engineer major, love to see to robotics in the medical field, but something about using our resources to build cars feels very wrong. Maybe it’s my love for trains…

[@AziziOthmanMY]

robots can't repair themselves yet, the time will come eventually that they can repair themselves soon

[@justinandreiminatejada]

yh they can but when you repair it requires many inconsistencies so you might at least need to know some programming coupled with robotics to solve and improve the robots even further

[@mustyrious]

Any engineers in the comments im currently on my journey to mechatronics I want to work with robotics and ai any general tips and suggestions please let me know 🙏

[@KyranFindlater]

industrial robots rarely use AI, it's more classical programming and safety-rated motion programming etc. Only leading-edge research and fancy stuff is able to play with AI much. The rest of us just making robot arms or smart mechanical systems the old-school way. PLCs with ladder or structured text code, C++ code and machine vision systems, robot controller code (each manufacturer has their own IDE and coding language usually)

Is self driving harder or humanoid robotic harder? Human hand dexterity is still out of robotic reach. If self driving is out of ai reach…

[@DK-yz9xk]

Humanoid robots are way harder, key tech for techs like self driving is the ability to transmit those information at high speed and large volume. The same reason why self driving will work best in countries that really support 5g

[@streaMania]

there are 27 degrees of freedom in human hand. It requires that many actuator to mimic it. It is not practical for most situations. It is more probable that we see self driving before we see humonoid robots.
