Robotics Technician

About the Role

This is a hands-on, execution-driven role at the center of building, operating, and maintaining our robots.

As a Robotics Technician, you'll work across a wide range of hardware activities - from assembling new robotic systems to troubleshooting, repairing, and improving existing ones. You'll help ensure our robots are built correctly, operate reliably, and remain ready for use.

In practice, you'll assemble mechanical systems, perform electrical work, integrate hardware components, test and troubleshoot robots, and help resolve issues as they arise. One day you might be building a new robot, the next diagnosing a hardware failure, replacing components, or supporting an engineering test.

This role is about being adaptable, solving problems, and helping keep our robotic systems moving forward.

You'll Be Responsible for

• Assembling, integrating, and maintaining robotic systems and hardware
• Performing mechanical and electrical work, including wiring, connectors, component installation, and hardware replacement
• Diagnosing, troubleshooting, and repairing mechanical and electrical issues
• Testing, inspecting, and validating robotic systems to ensure proper functionality and reliability
• Using hand tools, power tools, diagnostic equipment, and specialized tools to perform precise technical work
• Reading and following technical documentation, assembly instructions, and standard operating procedures
• Identifying hardware defects, performance issues, and opportunities for improvement
• Supporting engineers with hardware modifications, prototype builds, testing, and integration work
• Performing routine maintenance, repairs, and upgrades on existing robotic systems
• Documenting work performed, tracking issues, and communicating findings to engineers and teammates
• Maintaining a safe, clean, and organized workspace
• Contributing to improvements in build processes, maintenance procedures, and overall hardware reliability

You Might Thrive in This Role If You

• Have hands-on experience working with mechanical systems, electronics, robotics, or other complex hardware
• Are comfortable using tools to assemble, troubleshoot, modify, and repair physical systems
• Have experience or familiarity with basic electrical work, including wiring, connectors, and electrical components
• Enjoy figuring out why something isn't working and taking the initiative to fix it
• Are detail-oriented and take pride in producing clean, reliable work
• Can follow structured instructions while also thinking independently when unexpected issues arise
• Are comfortable learning new tools, equipment, and technical processes
• Can adapt quickly between different projects and priorities
• Are reliable, resourceful, and comfortable working in a fast-moving environment
• Enjoy working alongside engineers and other technical teams
• Like working with your hands and seeing the direct impact of your work

What This Role Is Not

• This is not a purely theoretical or design-focused engineering position
• This is not a robotics software or controls engineering role
• This is not limited to repetitive assembly or production-line work
• This is not a position where you'll only follow instructions without opportunities to solve problems

Additional information

Instead, this role sits at the intersection of robot assembly, hardware integration, testing, and maintenance. You'll be expected to develop a broad understanding of our robotic systems and contribute wherever hands-on technical support is needed.

Growth & Impact

As we scale our robotic fleet and hardware capabilities, this role will evolve alongside the complexity of our systems and operations.

You'll have opportunities to develop deeper expertise in robotics, take ownership of increasingly complex technical work, and contribute to improvements in how our robots are assembled, tested, maintained, and supported.

Whether your interests lean toward mechanical systems, electrical integration, troubleshooting, or robotics engineering support, this role offers exposure to a broad range of technical challenges.

If you enjoy building things, solving problems, and working directly with advanced robotic systems, this is an opportunity to make a tangible impact on how real-world robotics scales.
