Safety Programmer (human)

At the heart of product innovation and development, our Systems Engineering Department transforms market demands into safe, certifiable, and competitive solutions and architectures. By collaborating closely with software, hardware, safety, and certification teams, we ensure every product meets the highest standards while adapting to fast-evolving market needs. Our mission is to enable seamless human-robot collaboration and deliver solutions that are safe, compliant, and ready for the future. Join us to shape the next generation of human-robot systems by owning system-level requirements, integration, and alignment, with architectural responsibilities as needed. If you thrive in cross-functional teamwork and technical excellence, you’ll find extraordinary opportunities with us. Your Mission & Challenges - Program Safety Logic: Develop, test, and troubleshoot safety-related control logic using PLC programming per IEC 61131-3 (Structured Text, Ladder Diagram, Function Block Diagram) on established automation platforms. - Integrate Safety Networks: Implement and commission safe fieldbus communication (e.g. FSoE over EtherCAT), together with I/O systems, sensors, actuators, and servo drives. - Apply Robotics Concepts: Apply kinematics, dynamics, and control theory in safety function computation (e.g. safe Cartesian speed/position monitoring, force/torque estimation, stopping distance). - Commission & Validate: Commission, debug, and validate machine safety functions in line with ISO 13849, ISO 10218-1/-2:2025, and IEC 61508, ensuring safety-critical software is properly verified. - Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with hardware, software, and system teams on safety concepts and requirements, contributing analysis, troubleshooting, reviews, and clear safety documentation. What We Can Look Forward To (Core Competencies) - Degree in Automation, Robotics, Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Control Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field. - Hands-on experience developing and testing safety-related logic per IEC 61131-3 (ST, LD, FBD) on at least one automation platform. - C/C++ programming for safety-related or embedded software. - Working knowledge of functional and robot safety standards (ISO 13849, ISO 10218-1/-2:2025, IEC 61508) and experience validating safety functions. - Understanding of safe fieldbus communication (e.g. FSoE/EtherCAT) and servo drive integration. - Solid knowledge of robotics concepts: kinematics, dynamics, and control theory. - Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, with good communication and documentation. Nice-to-have - Experience with PROFINET/PROFIsafe and CIP Safety. - Python for scripting and test automation, and Git. - Hands-on experience with industrial or collaborative robots.
