Jobs at Standard Bots

• Sit in DFM/DFA reviews with product and mechanical engineering and bring concrete feedback on assemblability, tolerances, and cost, not vague opinions.
• Design, build, and validate the fixtures, tooling, and workstations used for robot assembly and test.

• Identify, target, and develop new business opportunities within manufacturing, logistics, and industrial sectors
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, integrators, and channel partners

• Identify, target, and develop new business opportunities within manufacturing, logistics, and industrial sectors
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, integrators, and channel partners

• The safety case. You own it across our products — analysis, architecture, and the certification plan that gets each robot through third-party assessment.
• The relationship with assessors. You're our technical voice toward notified bodies and NRTLs, and you're the one in the room defending the argument.

• Own the design of Bolt subsystems from requirements through production release: concept, detailed design, analysis, drawings, and release
• Run the trade studies that set your subsystem's architecture — structure and material choices, stiffness and fatigue targets, thermal and IP strategy, serviceability, cost — and close them with EE, software, and safety

• Own the design and validation of PCBAs and electrical subsystems in your focus area from concept through production release
• Safety focus: design the safety architecture with Functional Safety — safety PLC or safety controller, dual-channel inputs and outputs, STO and safe power cutoff, safety laser scanners, safety-rated encoders — and produce the design evidence for ISO 13849 PL d / Cat 3 certification

• Design parts and assemblies in SolidWorks — sheet metal, machined parts, 3D prints, and off-the-shelf hardware — and release drawings with correct tolerances and callouts
• Build and test prototypes: order parts, assemble, instrument, run tests, and document results

• Own the mechanical architecture of the Bolt platform: chassis and frame, drivetrain and suspension, battery and power-electronics packaging, control box, and arm-to-base interface
• Lead concept trade studies (payload, center of gravity and tip stability, drive configuration, battery capacity, serviceability, cost) and drive decisions to closure with software, EE, safety, and product

• Lead the Bolt hardware team of mechanical and electrical engineers: set the electrical architecture and work with the mechanical team to set the mechanical architecture, plan prototype builds and the test program, run design reviews, and drive decisions to closure with software, safety, manufacturing, and product

• Manage and develop a team of Applications Engineers across your territory -- setting expectations, coaching on technical and customer-facing skills, and building a team that executes at a high level
• Own capacity planning and workload distribution across your team -- making sure the right engineer is on the right job and nobody is drowning

• Own the welding number. You carry the national quota for welding systems and revenue across direct and partner sales. You build and manage the welding pipeline and forecast with each region, and you measure success by installed, producing systems, not just bookings.
• Partner with Regional Sales Managers. You co-sell welding opportunities with RSMs in every terr...

• Own the design and validation of PCBAs for critical robot subsystems — motor controllers, power distribution, compute, camera, battery management, and sensing boards — from concept through production release
• Drive key architecture and component decisions through conceptual design, requirements definiti...

• Perform GD&T inspection (ASME Y14.5) on mechanical parts and assemblies in the QC lab, catching deviations before they become problems downstream
• Program and operate CMMs and other advanced measurement equipment to verify parts against spec

• Inspect PCBA and electronic assemblies against IPC-A-610 acceptability criteria
• Inspect cables and wire harnesses against IPC/WHMA-A-620

About Standard Bots

Standard Bots is a New York-based robotics company building AI-powered six-axis robot arms designed and manufactured in the United States. Founded to make industrial automation more accessible and affordable, Standard Bots takes a vertically integrated approach — developing i...

• Define the Future: Own the technical vision for how advanced customers drive our robots programmatically: realtime streaming control, the Python SDK, ROS 2 integration, and the safety limits that make streamed motion trustworthy across a fleet.
• Decouple and Scale: Generalize what you learn on site into product capabilities with clear, st...

About Standard Bots
Standard Bots builds next-generation robotics for manufacturing affordable, capable, American-made automation. Our hardware is a tightly integrated electromechanical system, and we build it in-house at our Glen Cove, NY facility.

• Build and own automated tests and feature test suites (end-to-end, integration)
• Validate features in real time during the sprint, partnering tightly with developers so defects are solved as they appear.

• Design and implement state of the art ML models and training pipelines:

Apply novel machine learning techniques to wide range of robotics applications
Develop efficient data and training strategies
Implement model evaluation frameworks and metrics tracking

• Apply novel machine learning techniques to wide range of robotics applications

• Execute manual regression and smoke passes across software releases — on the product UI and on real robots — to catch regressions before they reach customers.
• Run broad exploratory testing across complex robotic workflows: probe edge cases, unusual sequences, and the failure modes scripted tests miss.
