Companies you'll love to work for

At Gideon, we're crafting the future of logistics, manufacturing & other industrial environments with cutting-edge AI and 3D vision-based autonomous robots. Our team is committed to automating complex operations, allowing people to shine in what they do best.

If you're ready to join us and be part of this journey, read on!

Our team of 100+ spans hardware and software engineering, product, operations, commercial, and corporate functions. Together, we design and deploy robots that improve safety, efficiency, and scalability across some of the world's most demanding environments. We believe robots should amplify human potential, not replace it. Everything we build is centered on enabling people to become designers, operators and leaders of automated age.

This role is all about being in the field — running structured tests, identifying issues, working through system setups, and helping bring robots into full operation on-site. You’ll play a key role in bridging product and deployment by combining testing, troubleshooting, and basic software/hardware configuration. If you're not comfortable with frequent travel and working in real-world environments, this role likely isn't the right fit.

You'll be the boots on the ground, making sure our robots perform flawlessly in the real world — where it truly counts.

We are looking for a person who is ready to travel for around 50% of the time to work on sites across different states.

This role integrates three core disciplines: field deployment engineering, customer support, and product feedback.

You'll bridge the gap between hands-on implementation, direct client interaction, and internal product improvement

Robot Deployment Activities:

• Commission and configure Gideon’s AMR systems: software, hardware, system checks, calibration, and performance validation
• Set up the environment (charging stations, network, and infrastructure)
• Conduct functional testing and log analysis to ensure safe and reliable operation
• Provide on-site customer training, knowledge transfer, and deployment documentation for project handover
• Collaborate with the project manager on required documentation and deliverables
• Surface issues early and ensure robots are ready for go-live
• Travel extensively (up to 60%) for customer site deployments

On-Site Support

• Troubleshoot and resolve system malfunctions, including urgent repairs and replacements
• Offer immediate customer support for critical issues
• Assist remotely (phone, email, ticketing) and resolve minor operational problems

During Off-Site Periods

• Analyze system logs to identify and address suboptimal robot behavior
• Support internal software and hardware testing, providing feedback to improve product reliability
• Maintain and improve technical, deployment, and customer-facing documentation

• A field-first, hands-on mindset — someone who thrives outside the office, in real operational settings
• Willingness and availability to travel frequently, sometimes for extended on-site work
• Experience with robotics, industrial automation, or commissioning hardware/software systems is a plus
• Basic experience with Linux OS, Docker and Git
• Familiarity with hardware platforms and robot sensors (cameras, lidars, ultrasonic, etc)
• Basics in scripting programming languages (Bash, Python)
• Basic software knowledge: understanding of logs, system states, network configuration, etc
• Strong troubleshooting instincts and clear communication skills
• Comfortable working independently and representing the company on-site with customers
• Familiarity with bug tracking/test tools (e.g. Jira, test management systems) is a plus
• Valid US work authorization and driver’s license required

• Familiarity with Robot Operating System (ROS)
• Experience with electrical and mechanical tools
