OperationsMaintenance Technician

Gravis Robotics is a high-growth Series A start-up backed by SoftBank, bringing Physical AI to the construction industry, turning heavy construction machines into autonomous robots.

Gravis began as an ETH Zurich spin-out, and our unique combination of learning-based automation and augmented remote control lets one operator safely conduct a fleet of earthmoving machines in a gamified environment.

Backed by deep robotics research and now deployed across multiple countries with leading construction and equipment partners, our team is rapidly growing to bring this technology to a trillion-dollar industry.

The Gravis RACK is a machine-agnostic retrofit kit that adds autonomy to excavators and wheel loaders from 10 to 100+ tonnes: LiDAR and camera sensing, GNSS RTK, networking hardware and rugged edge compute that works offline. Paired with the Slate tablet and our Copilot software, it lets an operator run a machine manually, with AI assistance, or fully autonomously.

About the Role

~1 min read

We're looking for a Field Robotics Technician to keep our autonomous machines running. You'll install our retrofit kits on excavators, calibrate sensors, track down hardware faults and make sure every machine is ready when the shift starts. When a machine goes down, you're first on the scene.

This role is for someone as comfortable with a multimeter and a laptop as with a wrench and a 40-ton machine. This is not a desk job.
