Robotics jobs in manufacturing are attainable with varying levels of education. For entry-level roles, like Robotics Technician or Robotics Operator roles, you can qualify for a job with a high school education, GED, certification, or two-year degree.  For mid-level to more advanced roles, like a Robotics Specialist, Robotics Engineer or Robotics Integrator role, you may want to pursue a four-year degree or in some select cases, a master's degree or PhD.

On average, robotics roles pay about 30% more than entry-level, non-robotics manufacturing jobs. Below are the average salaries for robotics jobs in manufacturing according to Lightcast:

JOB ACTIVITIES

  • Entry-level roles (Robotics Technician, Robotics Operator, and others): $66,000
  • Intermediate roles (Robotics Specialist, Robotics Engineer, and others): $105,000
  • Advanced roles (Robotics Integrator and others): $127,000

Additionally, these jobs include access to benefits like health insurance, paid time off, and retirement savings.

Manufacturing is how we make the things that we use every day, from the computer or phone you're using to read this to your clothing, car, and more. Manufacturing these items in the U.S. allows us to have the supplies we need. That starts with people like you. People with robotics skills who are willing to take on these well-paying, important jobs with benefits. Plus, 4.6 million jobs need to be filled in the U.S. manufacturing over the next decade. That translates to a lot of job opportunities for those with robotics skills.
