Head of Deployment & Maintenance - Robotics

About Us

We’re a fast‑growing robotics startup building turnkey work‑cells that blend advanced automation with intuitive software. Our robots already live on factory floors across the U.S.; now we’re scaling to hundreds more. Bullet‑proof deployments and rock‑solid uptime are mission‑critical—and that’s where you come in.

The Role

You will own the entire post‑manufacturing life‑cycle of our robots—from the moment a system leaves our dock to the day it retires. That means planning and executing customer‑site installs, building a world‑class field‑service organization, and architecting the preventive‑maintenance playbook that keeps fleets running 24 / 7. You’ll be the technical face of the company on factory floors and the internal champion for reliability inside engineering.
