We're moving fast from prototype to high-volume production, and the people assembling our robots are the most important people in the building. This role is central to that. Note: This is a full-time, on-site role at our Glen Cove, NY manufacturing facility. First shift, Monday through Friday. We are unable to sponsor Visas for this role. ## The Role We're looking for an Assembly Technician to build the robots that are showing up on factory floors across the country. You'll work closely with the Production Supervisor and engineering team to assemble precision robotic systems to spec — doing the hands-on work that turns parts into a finished product. This is a role for someone who takes pride in clean, accurate assembly work, catches issues before they become problems, and shows up every shift ready to execute. ## What You'll Do - Assemble production robots and components according to specifications and work instructions - Perform quality checks throughout the assembly process and report issues to the Production Supervisor - Maintain a safe, organized work environment in accordance with company and industry standards - Manage material handling and distribution to workstations - Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives on the production floor ## What We're Looking For - High school diploma or equivalent - 2+ years of experience in a mass production or manufacturing environment - 1+ year of hands-on assembly, maintenance/repair, or tool experience - Ability to lift up to 50 lbs - Strong attention to detail — you catch things, you don't let things slide - Clear communicator who can flag issues quickly and work well within a team - Able to prioritize and stay focused when things are moving fast ## Nice to Have - Associate's or Bachelor's degree - Experience in automotive, aerospace, industrial, or electromechanical manufacturing - Machine shop or CNC equipment experience - Familiarity with OSHA standards and workplace safety practices ## Compensation and Benefits The pay rate for this role is $30.00 to $36.00 per hour, depending on experience. Base pay 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. ## Sources 1. [standardbots.com](https://standardbots.com/) 2. [standardbots.com/about](https://standardbots.com/about) 3.
