Both job seekers and robotics employers need opportunities to connect. MassRobotics is holding a Robotics Engineering Career Fair from 3:30 to 6:00 p.m. on May 2 at the Robotics Summit & Expo.
The career fair will draw from the general robotics and artificial intelligence community, as well as from attendees at the Robotics Summit & Expo. Past co-located career fairs have drawn more than 800 candidates, and event organizers said they expect even more people at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center this year.
The Robotics Engineering Career Fair welcomes recent graduates and seasoned engineers, computer scientists, vision specialists, mechatronics experts, AI professionals, and more. Candidates can register here for $15.
Companies, from start-ups to industry leaders, will be hosting information tables where candidates can learn more about them, find out what positions are open, and schedule interviews.
Hiring companies at this year’s technical career fair will include Aigen, Amazon Robotics, GreenSight, Harmonic Drive, Lattice Semiconductor, maxon, Ruland, Simpl, and more. Hiring companies can submit a request for a table, space for a banner, marketing, and the attendee list.
Robotics Engineering Career Fair among MassRobotics offerings
Founded in 2024, MassRobotics said it is “the largest independent robotics hub dedicated to accelerating innovation and adoption in the field of robotics.” The Boston-based organization provides workspace, networking, and other resources to help innovators and entrepreneurs develop, test, and commercialize their products.
