Amazon Robotics Jobs in 2025: Your Complete UK Guide to Joining the Team Behind Proteus, Sparrow & Digit

When Amazon bought Kiva Systems back in 2012, few predicted that a single orange robot would snowball into a global fleet of over 750,000 mobile units navigating fulfilment centres from Swindon to Seattle. Fast‑forward to 2025 and Amazon Robotics (AR) is no longer a warehouse add‑on; it is a full‑blown tech powerhouse with dedicated R&D hubs, £multi‑billion investment and—crucially for you—hundreds of open roles spanning hardware, software and applied science. The official careers page lists 359 vacancies at the time of writing (amazon.jobs). Whether you are a UK student hungry for a summer internship, a ROS2 wizard targeting autonomy, or a mechanical engineer ready to design the next Proteus autonomous mobile robot, this guide unpacks everything you need to land an Amazon Robotics job in 2025.

Robotics vs. Mechatronics vs. Artificial Intelligence in Robotics: Which Path Should You Choose?

The Robotics sector has seen explosive growth in recent years, reshaping industries from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and consumer products. At the same time, emerging technologies such as Mechatronics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are converging with traditional robotics to create ever more capable machines—whether autonomous drones delivering packages, collaborative robots (cobots) working alongside human operators, or AI-driven surgical assistants. If you’re exploring Robotics jobs on www.roboticsjobs.co.uk, you may encounter related terms like Mechatronics or AI in Robotics, often used interchangeably but each with distinct applications and required skill sets. Which path should you pursue if you’re passionate about building the next generation of intelligent machines? In this comprehensive article, we’ll define Robotics, Mechatronics, and AI in Robotics, delve into their overlapping and unique skill sets, discuss salary ranges, highlight real-world examples, and provide guidance on choosing a career that aligns with your interests and strengths.
