Robotics recruitment for Dallas–Fort Worth engineering teams

Specialist recruitment for motion, sensing, embedded platforms, autonomy and integrated robotic systems. Led by an engineer who understands the engineering behind the hire.

01

Specialist Recruitment

Need the right robotics engineer for a critical role?

RunTime clarifies the engineering requirements, searches for relevant candidates, assesses their technical experience and delivers a focused shortlist for an individual role or defined search.

02

Embedded Recruiter

Building a team and need a recruiter working alongside you?

Lance can work inside your hiring operation, collaborating with engineering managers and using your ATS and company email where agreed. This recruitment delivery model can support wider engineering hiring alongside robotics roles.

Robotics recruitment specialisms

Define the capability the role actually needs.

Robotics roles can centre on controls, perception, embedded software, electronics or system integration. The robot, environment and ownership boundary determine the search.

Motion and control

Kinematics, dynamics, planning, drives and real-time control.

Sensing and perception

Cameras, ranging, localisation, sensor fusion and calibration.

Embedded platforms

Compute, firmware, Linux, communications and power constraints.

System integration

ROS where relevant, interfaces, autonomy, safety and field validation.

For Dallas–Fort Worth employers

A focused search built around the engineering work.

Clarify the brief

We clarify the robot architecture, operating environment, autonomy level, sensors, actuators, compute platform, middleware and integration responsibility.

Assess relevant evidence

Candidate discussions test personal ownership across algorithms and hardware, calibration, timing, fault handling and evidence from robots operating outside simulation.

Approach suitable engineers

RunTime searches and directly approaches engineers whose experience aligns with the brief, then presents a focused shortlist with evidence, gaps and practical details.

Founder-led technical recruitment

Engineering context behind the search.

Before recruitment, Lance Harvie developed electronics and firmware for industrial equipment, gaming systems and telecommunications products. He later built decades of specialist recruitment experience.

That background informs the questions RunTime asks about ownership, engineering decisions and fault investigation. It does not replace the client’s detailed technical interview.

RunTime Recruitment has operated since 2019.

Dallas–Fort Worth engineering context

Analog, RF and electronic systems capability.

Relevant local themes: analog circuits, mixed signal, RF systems, power circuits.

The Texas Analog Center of Excellence at UT Dallas focuses on analog, mixed-signal and power circuit research, including sensing, communications and power management. UT Dallas also describes RF work spanning systems, integrated circuits, passive components, antennas and measurement.

That combination gives Dallas–Fort Worth a relevant technical context for electronic-product teams, while each search remains tied to the employer’s specific circuit, system and validation requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Dallas–Fort Worth Robotics recruitment questions

Do robotics candidates need experience across every subsystem?+

No. Controls, perception, embedded platforms, electronics and integration are distinct specialties. The search defines the required combination and interfaces.

Can the search account for onsite or hybrid work in Dallas–Fort Worth?+

Yes. RunTime documents the employer’s actual working arrangement and presents it clearly. Onsite, hybrid and remote preferences are not treated as interchangeable.

Can you approach engineers who may need to relocate to Dallas–Fort Worth?+

Relocation can form part of the search where the employer is open to it. Interest, timing and practical constraints are confirmed with each candidate. No relocation or work-authorisation outcome is assumed.

When is Embedded Recruiter the better service?+

It is designed for a wider or recurring hiring plan where recruitment continuity matters. It is a delivery model, not a reference to embedded software engineering, and its agreed scope can support robotics and related engineering roles.
