Let's talk about the Team
Join our Moulding Research & Technology (R&T) Engineering Team and help shape the next generation of manufacturing capabilities for Resmed.
The R&T team explores and matures new manufacturing technologies before they enter formal NPI delivery.
We work across automation, robotics, mechatronics, tooling, moulding, sensing, inspection, and digital technologies to solve emerging manufacturing challenges.
The team works closely with Product Development, NPI Engineering, Manufacturing, Tooling Design, Quality, and external technology partners.
Our goal is not only to solve today's manufacturing problems.
Our goal is to build scalable technology platforms and capabilities that can enable future products and manufacturing systems.
Let's talk about the Role
As a Senior Engineer, Automation/Mechatronics Engineering - Research & Technology , you will lead the exploration, development, and maturation of emerging automation and mechatronics technologies for future manufacturing applications.
You will translate manufacturing challenges and future product needs into technology concepts, prototypes, and demonstrators.
You will use rapid experimentation to understand what works, what does not work, and what needs to be developed further.
You will work across mechanical systems, robotics, controls, sensing, machine vision, and software to develop integrated mechatronic solutions.
The role will focus on taking technologies from early concept and feasibility through proof of concept and production-relevant demonstration, before transferring mature solutions to NPI teams for product-specific industrialisation and validation.
You will have the freedom to experiment, challenge existing approaches, and work with internal and external technology partners while keeping patient safety, manufacturability, scalability, and long-term business value in mind.
- Let's Talk About Responsibilities
- Technology Exploration & Proof of Concept
- Identify and evaluate emerging automation, robotics, sensing, machine vision, and mechatronics technologies that could improve future manufacturing capabilities.
- Translate manufacturing challenges and future product requirements into clear technical hypotheses and experimental plans.
- Design and build proof-of-concept systems to rapidly test new ideas.
- Use structured experimentation to determine technical feasibility, capability, limitations, and key risks.
- Make clear recommendations on whether technologies should be advanced, redirected, partnered externally, or stopped.
- Mechatronics & Automation Development
- Design integrated mechatronic systems combining mechanical mechanisms, actuators, sensors, robotics, controls, machine vision, and software.
- Develop automation architectures for new and emerging manufacturing processes.
- Design and prototype fixtures, material-handling concepts, motion systems, and experimental equipment.
- Develop PLC, robotic, motion-control, machine-vision, and data-acquisition solutions where required.
- Develop modular and reusable automation concepts that can be adapted across products and manufacturing platforms.
- Technology Maturation
- Progress promising technologies from laboratory concepts toward production-relevant demonstrations.
- Evaluate technology maturity against manufacturing requirements such as quality, cycle time, reliability, safety, maintainability, scalability, and cost.
- Identify technical gaps that need to be closed before transfer into NPI.
- Build sufficient technical evidence so that NPI teams can confidently adopt and industrialise the technology.
- Design for Scale & Manufacturing Readiness
- Develop new technologies with future scale-up and manufacturing deployment in mind.
- Collaborate with NPI engineers to ensure new technology concepts can transition from R&T into production-intent development.
- Capture key design principles, operating requirements, lessons learned, and technical risks that will support downstream industrialisation.
- Where possible, develop common automation platforms and design standards that can be reused across multiple programs.
- Cross-Functional Technology Development
- Work closely with Product Development to understand emerging product concepts and identify future manufacturing capability needs.
- Partner with moulding, tooling, automation, manufacturing systems, quality, and NPI teams to develop integrated manufacturing solutions.
- Translate manufacturing challenges into clear technical requirements for external development partners.
- Share technical learning across teams and sites to avoid repeated development work.
- Technical Leadership & Capability Building
- Act as a technical mentor for engineers working on automation and mechatronics development.
- Challenge existing
