Amaru Robotics
- Bay Area (in-office between trips)
- ~50% travel to customer sites
- Full-time Amaru builds AI-powered robotic packing cells for e-commerce warehouses.
Packing is the last major step in fulfillment still done entirely by hand — we automate the whole job (scan → pick → box or bag → weigh → tape → label) in a compact cell that drops into an existing packing station with zero IT integration. We're a lean, second-time robotics team (Traptic → Bowery Farming; Zoox) with our first paying customer and robots heading to production, and backers who believe in us ($2M raised). Join early and you'll be the person keeping real robots running in real warehouses. We need a hands-on operator/technician who can keep our machines running — remotely and in person — and be the face of Amaru at customer sites. What you'll do Teleoperate our robots remotely — run the machine, handle edge cases, and help collect and label training data.
Maintain and repair machines on-site:
diagnose electro-mechanical issues, swap parts, work in the controls cabinet. Be the on-site point of contact for customers — professional, calm, and clear. You're the face of the company. Between trips, work from our SF Bay Area (Mountain View, CA) office so we can stay close to the system and hear how customers are doing. You have Hands-on experience maintaining or repairing robots, control systems, or industrial machinery — robotics, heavy-equipment, automotive, manufacturing, and automation backgrounds all welcome. Teleoperation experience Strong troubleshooting and debugging instincts. Willingness to travel ~50% to customer sites and work flexible / on-call hours; valid driver's license. Based in the Bay Area, or near a customer site you'll support. Nice to have Comfort in a controls cabinet — wiring relay blocks and harnesses, reading a schematic, multimeter troubleshooting, basic soldering. Basic Linux and network debugging, low-voltage
DC / CAN
bus, or embedded systems (we can teach this).
