## About Standard Bots

Standard Bot’s mission is to significantly lower the barrier to entry to real-world automation, bringing the power of bits to the world of atoms and unlocking productivity for entire new industries and users. Our user facing applications and APIs unlock the power of automation for entire new use cases. A relentless focus on simplicity and ease of use brings the revolutionary potential of robotic automation to new users and industries. The Applications Engineering team drives forwards the company’s mission by designing solutions around, installing and supporting Standard Bot’s innovative 6 axis robot.

Note: We are unable to offer Visa sponsorship for this role.

About the Role:

We’re looking for seasoned and skilled customer facing problem-solvers to help architect the future of robotics through the design, installation and support of innovative new robotic solutions. As a Applications Engineer you will work with other engineers, organizational leaders, sales and customers to design, install and support solutions for our customers in new and exciting robotic applications.

What You’ll Do:

- Partner with sales and customers to design robotic solutions for novel applications, serving as a trusted technical resource throughout the sales cycle
- Own installations end-to-end — traveling to customer sites to install, program, and validate Standard Bots solutions in the field
- Create technical enablement materials including sample code, application notes, and white papers that help customers get the most out of our platform
- Collaborate with in-house engineering to test and refine new features and integrations as our product expands
- Contribute to marketing efforts by developing collateral that communicates the value of Standard Bots solutions to prospective customers

What you'll bring:

- Technical Depth: You have hands-on experience across electrical, software, and mechanical systems — you're comfortable with DC power, understand NPN vs. PNP, can write Python scripts, and can navigate CAD tools like SolidWorks
- Industry Fluency: You have hands-on experience in automotive, manufacturing, or industrial automation environments — you understand the constraints, workflows, and stakeholders that come with deploying technology on a factory floor
- Operational Context: You've worked alongside or within production or assembly environments and can speak credibly to customers about cycle times, uptime requirements, safety standards, and integration with existing equipment
- Growth Mindset: You're energized by new domains and challenges, and you pick up context quickly to maximize your impact
- Clear Communication: You communicate with precision and empathy — in writing, in person, and across technical and non-technical audiences
- Bias for Impact: You prioritize user outcomes over technical elegance, and you execute with urgency
- Proactive Simplicity: You default to simple, reliable solutions and proactively flag opportunities to improve on what's proposed or already in place
- Thrives in Ambiguity: You do your best work in fast-moving, high-expectation environments alongside a diverse team

## COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

The salary range for this role is $80,000 to $120,000, depending on experience. We are open to a variety of seniority levels for this role and will build compensation packages that are commensurate with seniority and skill level. Base salary is just one part of the overall compensation at Standard Bots. All Full-Time Employees are eligible for Employee Stock Options. We also offer a package of benefits including paid time off, medical/dental/vision insurance, life insurance, disability insurance, and 401(k) to regular full-time employees.

## About Standard Bots

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Standard Bots is an American AI-native industrial robot manufacturer that builds affordable, easy-to-use six-axis robot arms designed and assembled in the USA.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series stage not publicly disclosed)
- **Headquarters**: Glen Cove, New York, USA
- **Founded**: 2020
- **Founders**: Evan Beard (Founder & CEO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Industrial Robotics / Manufacturing / AI
- **Target customers**: B2B — small to large businesses in manufacturing, machining, warehousing, and industrial automation
- **Mission**: "Propel human productivity through the world’s most accessible robots."

## Products & Services
- **Bolt**: Entry-level six-axis robot arm (900mm reach, 8kg payload) starting at $29,500. Designed for light-duty automation in tight spaces — pick & place, inspection, and assembly.
- **Spark**: Mid-range workhorse robot (1,300mm reach, 18kg payload) starting at $39,500. Built for machining, welding, finishing, pick & place, and inspection.
- **Thor**: Heavy-duty robot (2,000mm reach, 18kg payload) starting at $49,500. Includes Miller Auto Delta Weld package for welding applications. Built for bimanual tasks, palletizing, and heavy applications.
- **AI-Native Control Platform**: Robots are programmed through demonstration (no code, no PhD required). Foundation models generalize across variations. Real-time AI-driven torque control. Pre-built playbooks for common tasks, native integrations, simulator, and remote access dashboards.
- **Vision-Guided Inspection**: Automated defect detection with vision-guided checks.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Private company; funding details not publicly available
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Growth Signals**: Expanding manufacturing operations with goal to produce everything "from metal in to robots out" in America by 2027. Actively hiring across multiple engineering and operations roles. Growing product line with three distinct robot models (Bolt, Spark, Thor).

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-native architecture**: First industrial robot joints designed for real-time AI-driven torque control; robots learn through demonstration rather than complex programming — "no PhD required."
- **Cost leadership**: Starting at $29,500, significantly cheaper than legacy industrial robot solutions while claiming 3x faster performance.
- **Vertical integration**: Designs nearly every part and assembles every final product in-house in Glen Cove, NY. Goal to manufacture everything in America by 2027.
- **Ease of use**: Program complex routines from a tablet; pre-built playbooks; no-code interface; vision-guided inspection with ±0.1 Nm repeatability.

## Strategic Focus
- Scaling domestic manufacturing to full vertical integration (metal in to robots out) by 2027.
- Expanding AI capabilities with foundation models that generalize across unseen variations.
- Growing product line to cover light-duty (Bolt), mid-range (Spark), and heavy-duty (Thor) applications.
- Building out software, firmware, and AI teams to deepen the "AI-native" robotics platform.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Mission-driven environment focused on "making tomorrow easier" through accessible robotics. Emphasis on hardware, software, firmware, and electronics integration.
- **Work Policy**: Hybrid — employees typically work on-site 3 days a week. Offices in Glen Cove, NY; NYC; and Seattle.
- **Team Size**: ~130 total employees, ~25 in Product + Tech.
- **Engineering Focus**: Roles span embedded systems, motion planning, full-stack, firmware, AI research, and core platform engineering. Technology stack includes modern robotics and AI tooling.
- **Growth Stage**: Early-stage, fast-growing company (founded 2020) with significant manufacturing expansion plans. Opportunity to shape both product and culture.
