Robotics Deployment & Digital Integration Project Coordinator / Coordinateur·rice Projets Déploiement Robotique & Intégration Digitale (H/F)

Project Coordinator

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Project Coordinator to support and in some cases to lead the deployment of robotic systems in our manufacturing facilities, with a specific focus on digital integration aspects. This dual-role is critical in:

Identifying and implementing robotization opportunities to support growth and scalability in low-volume, high-mix production environments.

Acting as the main interface between factory operations and digital technology teams (IT/OT) to ensure seamless integration of robotic systems into our digital landscape (SAP, MES, Windchill, etc.).

The successful candidate will combine strong operational knowledge with advanced understanding of digital systems to ensure both physical deployment and data/system integration are delivered successfully and sustainably.

Project Management & Execution

• Coordinate or lead the planning, execution, and delivery of robotic projects from concept to commissioning with factory teams & integrators
• Define project scope, goals, deliverables, timelines, and budgets in alignment with stakeholders.
• Coordinate with internal teams (engineering, operations, maintenance, safety) and external vendors/integrators.
• Manage project risks, change controls, and resource constraints to ensure successful deployment.

Business Case Development

• Analyze manufacturing processes to identify automation/robotization opportunities.
• Define ROI, payback period, and performance KPIs for proposed robotic investments.
• Prepare and present detailed business cases to Business Line leadership and robotics & automation council to support capital investment decisions.

Digital System Integration (SAP, MES, Networks, Databases)

• Act as the key interface between operational teams and IT/digital stakeholders to align needs and system requirements.
• Ensure proper integration of robotic and automation systems with enterprise platforms (SAP, MES, SCADA, …).
• Validate data flow and system compatibility: including master data, production orders, traceability, and real-time data.
• Support network infrastructure planning, cybersecurity compliance, and digital architecture design.

Technical Support & Oversight

• Collaborate with engineering and operations teams to validate technical feasibility and integration of robotic systems.
• Oversee system acceptance testing (FAT, SAT) and post-installation performance validation.
• Collaborate with the Digital organization teams to ensure the readiness of production sites for new robotic systems (connectivity, data mapping, protocols).

Continuous Improvement & Strategy

• Support the development of roadmaps for future robotic initiatives in the factories and the scalability of some running projects.
• Contribute to the roadmap of robotic and digital initiatives at the factory and business line level.
• Help define integration standards, digital best practices, and scalable solutions.
• Support knowledge transfer and capability building across sites to strengthen the organization's digital maturity.
• Support internal capability building and knowledge transfer across sites.

Qualifications / Requirements

Education: Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Automation, Mechatronics) or a related field. A Master's degree or MBA is a plus.

Experience:

• Minimum 5–10 years of experience in robotics implementation, automation, or manufacturing project management.
• Proven track record of successfully delivering robotic/automation projects in factory environments.
• Experience with low-volume, high-mix production settings and scaling capacity through automation.
