The Research & Development Department’s mission is to set the industry standard by finding new materials, methods, and technology to change the built environment and how we work. We are looking for dynamic, innovative, and passionate team members to join us in our movement to change our industry.
The R&D Robotics Field Engineer will be responsible for deploying and testing robotics solutions while working with on-site project teams to address their challenges and improve project outcomes. They will work closely with the rest of the R&D robotics team to continuously improve the autonomy and reliability of our robotic systems. This team member will support robotics initiatives from concept through completion and coordinate across interdisciplinary teams, including project teams, consultants, hardware developers, software developers, subcontractors, and suppliers.

Key to this position are strong written and verbal communication skills, project management skills, creative thinking, relationship management, and meticulous attention to detail. Most importantly, candidates should be curious and excited about operating in new territory without fear of failure.
