Manager - Process Engineering & Robot Programming

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we have Company Overview, Responsibilities, Qualifications. Also maybe Benefits, Pay, Schedule not present, so omit. Use

for section headings. No job title heading. No metadata like Job ID. Remove boilerplate like Equal Opportunity Employer lines, duplicated lines. Preserve all substantive info. We need to include Company Overview as maybe "About the company" but headings allowed: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings from that list. We have Company Overview, Responsibilities, Qualifications. Could map Company Overview to "About the role"? But that's about role not company. Maybe we can use "About the role" for responsibilities? Actually responsibilities is separate. Could use "About the role" for a brief description of the role (maybe combine company overview and role). But we must not invent filler. We need to include sections only when posting has real, specific content for it. So we can have sections: Responsibilities, Qualifications. For company overview, maybe we can put under "About the role"? But that would be mixing. Could also create a section "About the company" but not in allowed list. The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to stick to those. We have responsibilities and qualifications. Could also have "About the role" containing a brief summary of the role (maybe from first paragraph). The job description includes: "This role combines being the technical lead for robot programming and process engineering activities with overseeing all robot programming and process engineering functions in the organization and reports to the Manager of Controls, Electrical, and Process Engineering." That's role summary. So we can put that under About the role. Then Responsibilities section with bullet list. Qualifications section with bullet list. We must not repeat job title as heading. Good. We must not include boilerplate like Equal Opportunity Employer lines. Remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information: company overview details, responsibilities details, qualifications details. We need to format lists with

• . Use

  for prose. Let's extract content. Company Overview paragraph: "Sapience Automation is based in Charleston, SC and is a robotics and automation systems integrator delivering automation solutions to manufacturers across North America. Recognized as a two-time FANUC Innovative System of the Year finalist (2023 and 2026), a recipient of the Outstanding Growth Award (2024 & 2025), Exemplary Sales Award (2025), and DURR Partner of the Year (2025) Sapience partners with clients in the automotive, aviation, medical, heavy truck, consumer products, food, defense, building materials, and energy industries to deploy high-performance automation systems — from single robot cells to complex, multi-process production lines. Our application expertise spans robotic assembly, machine tending, material handling, painting, palletizing, sealing & dispensing, inspection, welding, laser marking, and traceability. We complement robot integration with custom machine and conveyor design, advanced end-of-arm tooling and vision systems. Sapience is committed to earning customers for life through skilled people, disciplined execution, and solutions that are superior in design, performance, ease of use, and support. Sapience is an independent operating company within PPC Partners, an employee-owned business with over 3000 employees, so we offer a combination of small company flexibility with the infrastructure and investment support of a large organization. Charleston, South Carolina is a 12-time recipient of the “Best City in the US” by Travel + Leisure." We can keep that as prose under About the role? Or maybe under About the role we include role summary plus company overview? Might be too long but okay. Responsibilities: The posting lists many responsibilities under headings: Robot Program Development, Project Process Engineering Lead, System Design and Proposal Engineering, Layout Validation and Optimization, Vision Systems and Integration, Testing and Deployment, Standard Processes, New Process Development, Customer Training. Also earlier bullet: "Responsibilities of the group include:" then list. We need to capture all substantive info. We'll create a

  with each responsibility as
  • . Could group under headings but not required. We'll just list each responsibility sentence. Let's extract each: - Create and optimize robot programs for material handling, assembly, painting, packaging, and other tasks. - Utilize robot simulation software to develop and thoroughly test these programs before deployment. - Work collaboratively with the engineering team for the overall design of the system including end of arm tools, fixtures, and related machines. - Develop and manage a timeline and action plan for developing the robot programs and process for the project. - Utilize robot simulation software to validate cycle times, system design, and tooling designs. - Perform validation of vision, grippers, spray guns, dispensing equipment and other associated devices during the engineering phase of the project. - Ensure that all program design standards are met on the project. - Collaborate with the Application Engineering and Sales teams to engineer and propose robot systems. - Use 3D CAD software and robot simulation tools to design efficient and effective robotic solutions. - Validate robot system layouts during proposal and engineering phases using simulation software. - Work closely with mechanical engineers to optimize robot placement and tooling design. - Program and implement vision systems and inspection tools associated with robots. - Collaborate with Controls Engineers to integrate robots with PLCs and other control devices. - Test and Deployment: Conduct Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and Modular Build phases at Sapience’s facility. - Develop project-specific plans and timelines for robot program development and testing. - Implement and test programs on-site at customer facilities, serving as the main technical contact. - Develop standard processes and templates to increase the efficiency of the group. - New Process Development: Work on selective development processes to create new methods or products to be used at Sapience. - Customer Training: Provide training to customers on system operations and maintenance. Also earlier: "You will oversee all technical and planning aspects of the group." That's a responsibility. Also "The current team consists of 6 engineers and is projected to grow to 10+ engineers in the next two years." That's info about team size; could be included in responsibilities or about role. We'll include as a responsibility bullet: "Oversee all technical and planning aspects of the group, overseeing a team of 6 engineers projected to grow to 10+ in the next two years." Also "reports to the Manager of Controls, Electrical, and Process Engineering." That's reporting line; could be in About the role. Now Qualifications: list: - Bachelor’s degree in Robotics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field or equivalent industry experience. - Prior experience in a Senior robot programming role - Experience with robot simulation software - Understanding of 3D CAD tools. - Familiarity with PLCs and control systems. - Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively. Also maybe "In this role, you’ll need a combination of technical skills, leadership, creativity, and problem-solving abilities." Could be prose. We'll put a

    for that intro sentence, then

    for list. Now ensure we don't include boilerplate: Remove "Sapience Automation is an Equal Opportunity Employer." lines. Now produce HTML fragment:

    Make sure no extra whitespace issues. Let's craft About the role paragraph: combine company overview and role summary. We'll write: "Sapience Automation is based in Charleston, SC and is a robotics and automation systems integrator delivering automation solutions to manufacturers across North America.

That's fine. Now Responsibilities list: include overseeing technical and planning aspects, team size, etc. Let's craft each
    • . We'll produce:
