Open Positions: 03 Role Summary The Process Simulate Automation Engineer will design and enhance intelligent automation products within Siemens Tecnomatix Process Simulate. The role focuses on robotic manufacturing simulation, automated path planning, welding-operation optimization, equipment and object-flow automation, offline programming, ergonomic positioning, and collision-free multi-robot coordination. The engineer will combine strong C#/.NET development with mathematics, geometric computation, robotics, and optimization algorithms to deliver reliable production-ready solutions. Key Responsibilities - Design algorithms that minimize robot via points while preserving path accuracy, process safety, reachability, and collision clearance. - Automate the resequencing of welding spots to optimize robot path length, cycle time, accessibility, and process constraints. - Determine optimal welding-gun orientation for each spot and improve gun open/close parameters for speed, reliability, and weld quality. - Create automatic operation-sequencing logic that can adapt to cycle-time and station-level constraints. - Develop resequencing capabilities across stations to improve overall process flow and production-cycle performance. - Implement robot zoning, interference management, collision detection, and collision-free path generation for shared workspaces. - Generate accurate robot Offline Programming (OLP) outputs suitable for downstream validation and execution with mínimal manual intervention. - Conduct functional, accuracy, robustness, and performance testing; validate simulation results against available real-world data.



- Prepare source-code documentation, user guides, technical methods, training materials, and structured handover packages. Required Technical Skills - Hands-on expertise with Siemens Tecnomatix Process Simulate, including robotic simulation, robotic operations, process planning, equipment placement, and manufacturing-cell validation. - Experience with Process Simulate automation APIs, scripting, customization, plug-in development, or DLL integration. - Strong C# and.NET programming skills, with sound object-oriented design, API integration, debugging, exception handling, and maintainable coding practices. - Strong foundation in linear algebra, vector mathematics, coordinate systems, transformation matrices, trigonometry, 3D geometry, and computational geometry. - Good understanding of robot kinematics and inverse kinematics, reachability, joint configurations, singularities, and motion constraints. - Working knowledge of Git or an equivalent version-control system and disciplined software configuration management. Optimization and Algorithm Experience - Graph theory, shortest-path search, sampling-based motion planning, and search-space reduction. - Collision detection, clearance evaluation, robot-workspace zoning, and multi-robot interference management. - Genetic algorithms, metaheuristic methods, constraint solving, or multi-objective optimization for cycle time, path length, quality, and safety.



- Geometric reasoning for gun orientation, tool-center-point motion, equipment movement, object flow, and manikin or ergonomic positioning. Education and Experience - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Robotics, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Manufacturing Engineering, Automation, or a related discipline. - Demonstrable hands-on experience delivering Process Simulate customization, robotic path-planning, OLP, or manufacturing-simulation automation solutions. - Experience in automotive body-in-white, robotic welding, assembly-line simulation, virtual commissioning, or similar manufacturing environments is preferred. Key Deliverables - Enhanced automatic path planner with reduced via points and validated path quality. - User-controlled robot configuration settings and automated configuration support where required. - Automatic welding-spot resequencing and optimal gun-orientation functionality. - Optimized operation sequencing, gun open/close behavior, and cross-station resequencing. - Robot OLP generation and collision-free zoning validated through simulation and testing. - Test reports, source code, technical documentation, user manuals, and training materials. Behavioral Competencies - Strong analytical thinking and the ability to translate manufacturing problems into practical algorithms. - Structured debugging, root-cause analysis, and attention to simulation accuracy and software quality. - Explicit communication with manufacturing, robotics, process-planning, and software stakeholders. - Ownership of deliverables, estimates, documentation, and timely technical escalation. - Ability to collaborate in a milestone-driven, cross-functional engineering environment.
