Role Overview
As a Conveyor Solutions & Simulation Lead, you will be responsible for developing, optimizing, and standardizing the conveyor system architecture and simulation methods that support Berkshire Grey’s Stride product platform. This role focuses on reusable conveyor modules, modularity between station configurations, optimal station-to-station interfaces, simulation-backed layout decisions, and design constraints that improve system functionality and make Stride deployments easier to configure, validate, install, scale, and support.
The Conveyor Solutions & Simulation Lead will partner closely with Solutions Architecture, Applications Engineering, Controls, Software, and Hardware Engineering to strengthen the conveyor design and simulation foundation used across Stride deployments. By developing clearer standards, reusable design guidance, modeling assumptions, and optimization methods, this role enables Solutions Architecture to create more consistent customer layouts and Applications Engineering to perform viability reviews against a stronger technical baseline.
Success in this role requires strong systems engineering judgment, automation knowledge, and the ability to...
