About the role

We are seeking a highly analytical and heavily hands-on Technical Autonomous Fleet Manager to oversee the deployment, health, and operational efficiency of our autonomous construction robots on utility-scale solar sites.
Your primary mission is simple: keep the robots running and doing work.

Field-to-R&D Feedback Loop: Systematically capture, document, and analyze field data, hardware anomalies, edge cases, and performance bottlenecks.
Fleet Logistics & Deployment: Manage the end-to-end logistics of moving, deploying, and staging the robotics fleet across various construction sites. Oversee site-specific requirements such as charging/fueling infrastructure and spare parts inventory.
Operational Optimization: Track daily fleet utilization and task completion rates. Develop and refine operational playbooks to optimize how our robots are deployed on busy construction sites.
Manage the end-to-end logistics of moving, deploying, and staging the robotics fleet across various construction sites.
Manage preventative maintenance schedules and routinely execute hands-on corrective maintenance and repairs in rugged outdoor environments.

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Robotics, Systems Engineering, or a related technical field (OR equivalent deep, hands-on experience managing complex mechanical/heavy equipment fleets).
Independent Problem Solver: Proven ability to work autonomously as the sole technical expert on a site, making rapid, high-stakes troubleshooting decisions on the fly to keep operations moving.
Highly Hands-On: You are not afraid to get your hands dirty.
You must have a proven history of working closely with physical machines, turning wrenches, and diagnosing hardware faults in outdoor, active construction environments.
Proven track record in fleet management, technical field operations, or hardware testing and deployment.
Exceptional technical communication skills, with the ability to accurately describe complex mechanical failures to off-site software and hardware engineers.
Often serving as the sole technical expert in the field, you must be a relentless problem solver capable of troubleshooting complex mechanical, electrical, and system issues on the fly.
The ideal candidate is an independent operator who is not afraid to get their hands dirty and has extensive experience with advanced heavy machinery or autonomous fleets.
Proven ability to work autonomously as the sole technical expert on a site, making rapid, high-stakes troubleshooting decisions on the fly to keep operations moving.
You are not afraid to get your hands dirty turning wrenches or swapping components.

Experience setting up field maintenance programs or utilizing fleet management software/telemetry dashboards.
