At Layup Parts, we're developing the technology that will build the future.

We're a manufacturing technology company replacing months of lead time with days, using proprietary software, automation, and advanced manufacturing systems built for speed. Our customers are inventing what's next, in aerospace, defense, robotics, and beyond. To keep up with them, manufacturing has to change. That's what we're building.

We're looking for a Robotics Engineer to lead the implementation and R&D of robotics systems across our production floor. You'll take pick-and-place systems from design through bring-up into production, support lamination automation applications, and help push automated trimming work forward alongside our automation team. This role owns the controls side of robotics, how a system actually moves, sees, and reacts, working in close partnership with mechanical engineers who own the nuts and bolts of the assembly itself.

Design, build, and bring into production new robotic systems supporting a range of manufacturing processes

Support lamination automations and related material handling applications

Collaborate on automated trimming systems currently in development

Own the controls and robotics logic side of new automation projects, working closely with mechanical engineers who handle assembly design and parts integration

Work across both hardware/actuator-focused implementations and vision-based systems (camera systems, object detection, and ML applications for robotics)

Bring industrial robotics best practices to custom, high-mix manufacturing applications

Integrate robotic systems with PLCs and broader factory control systems

5+ years of experience with robotic arms (e.g., Fanuc); direct experience with industrial systems required

Mechanical background (can come from a software angle, but must have mechanical grounding)

Experience with industrial/factory systems

Comfortable owning both the design and hands-on bring-up of robotics systems

Experience with PLC systems (Beckhoff, Siemens, Allen-Bradley)

Software experience in C++ or Rust (Rust a plus)

Manufacturing experience
