About The Position

Analog Devices is seeking a Field Robotics System Engineer to operate at the intersection of hands-on robotic system expertise, customer engagement, and platform enablement. You will act as a system-level domain expert in the field, supporting customers from early architecture discussions through proof-of-concept (PoC), evaluation, and system support and integration, accelerating adoption of ADI technologies in real-world robotic systems. This is a high-impact, customer-facing role focused on scaling platform and solution engagements across robotics ecosystems (OEMs, disruptors, and partners), in collaboration with ADI BUs, Sales, Software, ADI Garage, Innovation Hubs, and AI teams. You will co-create with customers and demonstrate value proposition, providing domain expertise across robotic subsystems and platforms (motion, sensing, perception, control, power), and accelerating customer decision cycles and drive design wins. This role supports priority segments including industrial robotics, humanoids, mobile robots, and service robotics, and is central to ADI’s strategy to move up the value stack—from components to subsystems and platforms. Success in this role requires the ability to operate across complex ecosystems, influence technical and business stakeholders, and translate platform capabilities into working PoCs that accelerate customer adoption. At its core, this role executes ADI’s platforms & solutions strategy in the field—driving near-term business impact while scaling repeatable system solutions and strengthening ADI position within key robotics ecosystems.
