Job's mission
We are seeking a motivated Systems Engineer I to support software-driven automation tools for semiconductor equipment and field-service workflows. This role is ideal for an early-career engineer with strong software fundamentals who is comfortable working close to hardware, robotics, cameras, HMIs, measurement tools, databases, and production/service environments.
The engineer will help develop and maintain local applications, diagnostic tools, HMI workflows, data pipelines, automation tools, and supporting software used by engineering, manufacturing, field service, and cleanroom/cleanhouse partners. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with Python and/or C/C++, user interface development, basic networking, data handling, and troubleshooting systems in lab or deployed environments.
This role requires curiosity, attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to take ownership of assigned technical tasks while learning in a cross-functional engineering environment.
What you will be working on
- Develop and maintain software applications, diagnostic tools, and HMI interfaces for semiconductor equipment, lab fixtures, robotic tools, and field-service workflows.
- Build operator-facing workflows that are reliable, readable, and easy to use on PCs, HMIs, tablets, or other equipment-connected interfaces.
- Develop frontend/UI and backend logic using Python GUI frameworks, web UI tools, JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML/CSS, APIs/local services, configuration files, logging, and error handling.
- Integrate software with robots, cameras, sensors, measurement devices, motion systems, and industrial equipment.
- Support basic equipment networking, including setting device IP addresses, understanding subnets, and connecting PCs/HMIs to robots, cameras, and controllers.
- Build responsive application workflows using threading, synchronization, asynchronous execution, or queue-based updates so long-running robot, camera, measurement, or communication tasks do not freeze the HMI/operator interface.
- Support databases and data pipelines for measurement results, equipment records, part data, reports, analytics, model inputs/outputs, and traceability.
- Support data-driven and AI/ML workflows where applicable, including feature extraction, model integration, similarity scoring, quality/health checks, prediction outputs, and engineering analytics.
- Create and maintain scripts, tools, installers, documentation, validation notes, and test procedures needed to support applications in lab, production, or customer-adjacent environments.
What we are looking for
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Robotics, Mechatronics, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Proficiency in Python for application development, automation, scripting, debugging, data handling, or equipment integration.
- Experience with C/C++ or other lower-level programming languages is helpful for debugging, device integration, or performance-critical workflows.
- Experience developing user interfaces, dashboards, diagnostic tools, HMIs, or local software applications.
- Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS, Python UI frameworks, or similar frontend/HMI technologies.
- Familiarity with backend application logic, APIs/local services, configuration files, logging, error handling, and software testing.
- Familiarity with databases or structured data using SQL, SQLite, JSON, Excel/CSV, NoSQL, or similar tools.
- Basic understanding of networking concepts such as IP addresses, subnets, ports, and local equipment connectivity.
- Exposure to robotics, cameras, sensors, motion systems, measurement devices, machine vision, or industrial equipment is preferred.
- Exposure to AI/ML or data science tools such as scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow, NumPy, pandas, or similar frameworks is preferred.
- Experience with threading, synchronization, asynchronous programming, event loops, or queue-based UI updates is preferred.
- Experience with software packaging and deployment tools such as PyInstaller, NSIS, virtual environments, PowerShell, Git, GitLab, CI/CD pipelines, or Microsoft Azure is a plus.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, especially when debugging systems that combine software, hardware, data, and operator workflows.
- Ability to communicate technical information clearly and work effectively in a cross-functional engineering environment.

Robotics Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a robotics engineer in Arizona?
Robotics engineers in Arizona typically enter the field with a bachelor's degree in robotics, mechatronics, electrical engineering, or mechanical engineering from an in-state program such as Arizona State University or the University of Arizona. No state-issued license is required for most private-sector roles, though engineers who sign off on public-facing systems may pursue licensure through the Arizona State Board of Technical Registration. Building hands-on experience with industrial automation platforms and earning manufacturer certifications from FANUC or ABB strengthens Arizona applications considerably.
How much do roboticses make in Arizona?
Roboticses in Arizona earn a median of about $80,930 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $41,600 for the lowest 10% to over $105,730 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire robotics engineers in Arizona?
Employers hiring robotics engineers in Arizona right now include Amazon, ASM, and Gatik, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Arizona's concentration of semiconductor fabs, aerospace primes, and large fulfillment centers means demand is spread across several industries rather than limited to a single sector.
Which Arizona cities have the most robotics jobs?
Phoenix, Goodyear, and Tucson have the most robotics openings in Arizona. Phoenix and the East Valley corridor, including Chandler and Mesa, account for the bulk of postings thanks to Intel's semiconductor campuses, Amazon's fulfillment network, and a dense cluster of aerospace and defense contractors, while Tucson draws additional demand from Raytheon and University of Arizona research programs.
Are there remote robotics jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're rare. Most robotics roles require hands-on access to physical systems on the production floor, test bench, or field site. About 25% of robotics openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions tend to be in simulation modeling, software architecture, or systems integration planning rather than hardware deployment or maintenance.
How can I get hired as a robotics engineer in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an internship or co-op through Arizona State University's Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering or the University of Arizona's engineering college, both of which have structured placement pipelines into local manufacturers and defense contractors. Intel and Amazon both run associate and rotational programs in Arizona that accept candidates without full professional experience. Lateral moves from CNC machining, electrical technician, or automation technician roles are common, and holding a FANUC or Omron robot operator certification gives entry-level candidates a measurable advantage in Arizona manufacturing interviews.
Where can I find and apply to robotics jobs in Arizona?
