About the role

We are looking for a Solution Engineer to join our Sales Team and play a key role in accelerating our growth. This is not a back-office engineering role — this is technical sales at its best.

An Solution Engineer acts as a consultant to customers and designs technical solutions that get implemented with world-class robots. You will uncover requirements, create proposals, present your ideas, define pilots, help refine our product roadmap, collaborate closely with our sales, customer success and engineering teams, beat the competition and have fun working in a collaborative, fast moving, high-tech environment. You can expect to learn a lot about a lot in the warehousing, logistics and manufacturing industries – from the shop floor to the top floor.

This is a remote position that requires approximately 30–40% travel, consisting of frequent but shorter customer visits. The best candidates are located near Chicago (preferred), Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, or Philadelphia.
