Job Description:
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

technical issues are quickly identified, root-caused, and
resolved—driving reliability and scalability across our fleet.
Responsibilities Diagnose, troubleshoot, and repair complex
mechanical, electrical, software, and perception system issues
across a large fleet of robots. Collaborate with engineers to
identify recurring issues, recommend design improvements, and
enhance serviceability. Communicate technical findings clearly and
contribute to documentation, repair manuals, and troubleshooting
guides. Perform CAD design, prototype fabrication, and robotic
hardware assembly. Improve embedded control systems and implement
electromechanical and perception systems. Conduct root cause
analysis, debugging, and testing for sensors, edge compute devices,
and control systems. Build dashboards (Looker, Tableau) and develop
automation scripts in Python and Linux. Maintain detailed records
of repairs, maintenance activities, and recurring technical issues.
Preferred Qualifications 5 years of full time work experience in
relevant industry Strong experience in diagnosing and repairing
mechanical, electrical, and software systems. Proficiency in CAD
design and prototype fabrication. Familiarity with embedded control
systems, perception technologies, and electromechanical components.
