About the job
Join the Watney Robotics Team
At Watney Robotics, we are revolutionizing the future with our autonomous robots designed to enhance critical infrastructure. Recently, we secured $21 million in seed funding from Conviction, Abstract, and A*, allowing us to collaborate with some of the largest hyperscalers to expedite data center expansion and maintenance.
This is your chance to join a dynamic team with significant ownership and visibility as we transition from prototypes to full-scale production fleets. Be a part of our journey to deliver real systems, develop our rollout strategies, and make a lasting impact in the robotics industry.
Your Role
As a Robotics Technician, you will engage directly with state-of-the-art autonomous systems throughout their lifecycle—from prototype development to production deployment. Your responsibilities will go beyond traditional maintenance; you will be a key technical contributor who will:
Design, test, and refine robots for continuous operation
Diagnose and resolve intricate mechanical, electrical, and software challenges within autonomous systems
Establish diagnostic protocols and predictive maintenance strategies
Adjust and calibrate sensors, actuators, and control systems
Assist in field deployments and remote troubleshooting of systems globally
Document assembly and maintenance procedures as we grow
Collaborate on hardware design iterations informed by real-world performance feedback
Work in tandem with software and hardware teams to enhance robot functionality and reliability
