Applications Engineering Manager (Boston)

About Standard Bots

Standard Bots is building the next generation of industrial robots -- hardware that's powerful, affordable, and designed to scale. We're the largest U.S. industrial robotics company by robots shipped, and our robots are showing up on factory floors everywhere from independent machine shops to NASA and Lockheed Martin. Someone has to make sure those robots actually work -- and someone has to build the team that makes that happen at scale. That's this role.

Note: This role requires up to 25% domestic travel. You're still in the field -- just not living out of a suitcase 2-3 days a week.

Also note: Like every Applications Engineer at Standard Bots, this is not a software engineering role. You are a hands-on industrial automation engineer who also happens to lead people. If you've never commissioned a robotic cell, this isn't the right seat.
