As an example of a career within this field, a Robotics engineer may be expected to conduct research into various fields within Robotics, design processes and prototypes to build machines, and testing Robotics systems. Those holding the title of senior Robotics engineer might also be expected to manage projects, train those in junior or entry level positions, and to demonstrate finished products to clients and customers.
