Company Overview
At Skild AI, we are building the world's first general purpose robotic intelligence that is robust and adapts to unseen scenarios without failing. We believe massive scale through data-driven machine learning is the key to unlocking these capabilities for the widespread deployment of robots within society. Our team consists of individuals with varying levels of experience and backgrounds, from new graduates to domain experts. Relevant industry experience is important, but ultimately less so than your demonstrated abilities and attitude. We are looking for passionate individuals who are eager to explore uncharted waters and contribute to our innovative projects.
Position Overview
We are seeking a Robotics Software Technician to help sustain and improve Skild’s internal robot operations.
In this role, you will take ownership of complex diagnostics, repairs, and design improvements to keep our robotic systems running smoothly. You will work closely with AI and robotics engineers, as well as operations managers, to ensure technical issues are quickly identified, root-caused, and resolved—driving reliability and scalability across our fleet.
