    I mainly program robots to complete mundane tasks that are repetitive. These put unnecessary strain on human operators, and the robots can complete them much more efficiently. The programming is done on a computer, which has simulation software, then transferred to the robot.

  • My Typical Day: My day starts at 8am, I will check on all the robots individually and react to any breakdowns or failures. I then work on any current projects and plan with the projects teams for the programming design and implementation.
