About the role
Everyone should be able to afford a well-built home in a beautiful neighborhood. Our ambition is to help solve the housing crisis and bring beauty back to the places we live. We are developing robots that can make intricate, high-quality construction affordable at scale. We are hiring our founding Robot Operators in the United States, starting with our first pilot in San Antonio, Texas.
You will help bring a system already used on sites in the Netherlands and the UK to a new market. As one of our first US operators, you will help establish how we work on site and give our engineering team direct feedback from the field.
About the Role
This is hands-on construction work with robots. You will move bricks and mortar, keep the robots supplied, set up equipment and clean the site. You will also operate the robots using Atrium, our in-house software, and work with our engineers when something needs fixing.
No previous robotics or construction experience is required. We are looking for practical people with technical intuition, an eye for detail and the initiative to solve problems. We will train you to operate our systems. This is a full-time role. Training starts at our headquarters in Amsterdam, with costs covered by Monumental.
Our operators come from construction, retail, hospitality, events, farms, workshops and engineering. What they share is a preference for working with their hands and seeing the things they build.
What You Will Do
- Prepare construction projects: understand the build plan and assess site conditions.
- Place markers and take photos for 3D reconstruction.
- Set up and operate masonry robots using a laptop and our software.
- Carry and load bricks and mortar, move equipment and keep the work area safe and tidy.
- Help with site tasks such as cutting bricks, setting wall ties and pointing walls.
- Troubleshoot with our engineering and operations teams.
- Record problems and improvements so our engineers can develop the hardware and software.
- Work with the contractors and trades around you as the face of Monumental on site.
What We Are Looking for
- A practical, technical mindset and a willingness to learn.
- Comfort with physical work outdoors, early starts and changing site conditions.
- Attention to detail: the quality of the finished wall matters.
- Initiative when something does not go to plan.
- A valid driver’s license and comfort driving to construction sites.
- Good spoken and written English for working with our team.
- Construction, maintenance or other hands-on experience is useful, but not required.
Location
- This is an on-site role.
- Our first demo site and pilots will be in San Antonio, Texas.
- Our main US office will be set up in Austin, Texas.
- You need to be able to work on construction sites in the San Antonio area.
- This is not a remote role.
Why Monumental?
You will be part of the team bringing our robots to US construction sites for the first time. The work combines physical building, technical problem-solving and direct collaboration with the people developing the robots. Your feedback will help shape the next deployment.
If you do not meet every line above but enjoy building things and solving practical problems, we would still like to hear from you.
