A Mechatronics Engineer brings together the principles of mechanics, electronics, and computing with the goal of generating a simple, reliable, and economic system.
Often working alongside the Automotive, Aerospace, Aviation, Manufacturing, Oil, and Energy Industries, Mechatronics Engineers are expected to handle a range of tasks, including:
- Identifying areas within an operation where tasks can be automated and/or integrated.
- Designing and developing mechatronics devices for use in a consumer or industrial setting.
- Creating/producing intelligent, computer-driven systems along with controls for use within an operation.
- Conducting feasibility studies, modelling and analysis of potential mechatronic solutions.
- Implementing successful solutions within their broader operation.
- Troubleshooting problems and issues within existing mechatronics systems and devices.
