Job Description
Tutor builds robotic systems deployed in real manufacturing and logistics environments across the U.S. Our robots are running today — and we iterate fast based on field performance.
We’re hiring a hands-on Senior Engineering Technician to support R&D builds, beta deployments, hardware upgrades, and test bench development. If you can confidently rework wiring inside a control box, assemble electromechanical hardware, and debug issues in the field, you’ll thrive here.
What You’ll Do
- Build & assemble electromechanical and pneumatic subsystems.
- Machine one-off prototype parts (mill, lathe, drill press, fixturing)
- Upgrade and retrofit robotic equipment (install new DLI modules, routing harnesses, and validate configurations)
- Build and wire R&D test benches for hardware evaluation, reliability testing, and subsystem bring-up
- Debug and diagnose root-cause failures (electrical, mechanical, pneumatic — not just swap parts)
- Travel to customer sites to support installs, upgrades, and beta deployments
- Provide real-time field feedback to Engineering to drive design improvements
- Create/maintain assembly steps, troubleshooting guides, and test procedures
- Train production and service teams as the product scales
What You Bring
- 3+ years in robotics, automation, electromechanical assembly, or related R&D roles
- Strong hands-on mechanical & electrical assembly capability
- Able to read mechanical drawings, wiring diagrams, and pneumatic schematics
- Confident running upgrades or rework on live hardware with precision and accountability
- Willing to travel up to 35% to customer sites across the U.S.
Bonus Skills
- Pneumatics (valves, leaks, fittings, regulators)
- Harness design, cable routing, and connector termination
- Experience supporting field trials or pilot deployments
- CAD / SolidWorks viewing & markup
- Writing work instructions or service procedures
We’re building reliable, scalable robotic systems for the real world — and we need hands-on builders who care about doing things the right way.
