Robust AI is a fast-growing, early-stage startup founded in 2019 by an unsurpassed team of veterans in robotics, AI, and business. We are a collaborative group with a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives, seeking talented individuals who are just as excited about robotics and AI as we are! Help us redefine the very foundation of robotics and build robots that are smart, collaborative, robust, safe, flexible, and genuinely autonomous.

As a Robot Technician, you will be playing a critical role on the Customer Success Team. You will work alongside onsite and remote engineering staff to deploy the next generation of warehouse robotic systems, executing preventative maintenance and incident triage. You will troubleshoot, diagnose, and repair robots while in the field. You will also help provide technical support and training to our customers. This position requires a technician who is not afraid to roll up their sleeves in an early-stage startup environment, working smart and hard to keep our fleet operating at its maximum potential.

The annual salary for this role is $60,000 - $85,000 ; the final compensation for this role will be based on the candidate’s unique skills and experience.

Work with customers to deploy and support robotic fleets in the warehouse
