We develop advanced robotics and artificial intelligence solutions that enable robotic systems to sense, reason, and act in real-world warehouse and factory environments — helping businesses streamline operations, increase productivity, and transform physical work. ## Role Overview As a Field Deployment Engineer, you will lead the installation and deployment of our AI-powered robotic systems at customer sites across Europe. This is a dynamic, hands-on engineering role that combines technical leadership with practical implementation to ensure successful system integration in high-automation production environments. You will plan and coordinate deployments, collaborate closely with internal engineering teams, project managers and customer stakeholders, and take end-to-end responsibility for the complete installation, integration, and commissioning process onsite. This is a hands on role where you will contribute directly to mechanical and electrical work to support live systems, helping install new systems, and troubleshoot robotic systems during on-site deployments. Your Responsibilities: Deployment Leadership - Lead the installation and commissioning of robotic systems at customer facilities. - Coordinate deployments with internal engineering teams, contractors, and customer personnel. - Coordinate deployments with internal engineering teams, contractors, and customer personnel. - Plan installation workflows and ensure deployments are executed safely and efficiently. - Serve as the primary technical contact during on-site deployments. - Ensure systems meet operational, performance, and safety requirements prior to production handoff. System Installation & Integration - Install and integrate robotic arms, grippers, sensors, cameras, and mobile platforms. - Contribute directly to mechanical and electrical installation of robotic systems. - Mount and replace end-effectors such as grippers and tooling. - Route and secure electrical and communication cables within robotic cells and control cabinets. - Assist with installation, wiring, and modification of control cabinets and electrical components. - Drill, tap, mount, and modify brackets, fixtures, and mounting hardware as required for system integration. - Conduct on-site system testing and validation. Troubleshooting & Optimization - Diagnose and resolve mechanical, electrical, and software issues during deployment. - Replace or repair hardware components such as grippers, sensors, actuators, and cabling. - Optimize system performance for efficiency, speed, and accuracy in production environments. - Provide technical training and support to customer teams. - Document installation procedures, configurations, and lessons learned from deployments. - Collaborate with internal engineering teams to improve system robustness and deployment processes. - Support customer sites across Europe remotely when not actively on deployment. Travel Willingness and ability to travel extensively across Europe (approximately 75%) is required for this role. Qualifications: Education and Experience - 3+ years of experience deploying robotic systems, automation equipment, or industrial machinery. - Experience leading or coordinating technical installations or field deployments. - Hands-on experience with robotic workcells, automation systems, or industrial equipment. ## Skills - Knowledge of ROS 2, robotic system architecture, or industrial automation systems. - Proficiency in Python, C++, or similar programming languages. - Experience with containerization tools such as Docker is a plus. - Strong troubleshooting skills across mechanical, electrical, and software systems. - Comfortable working with hand tools, power tools, and mechanical equipment. - Experience installing sensors, routing cables, and integrating hardware in industrial environments. - Ability to read mechanical drawings, wiring diagrams, and system layouts. - Strong written and verbal communication skills. - Familiarity with 6-axis robots, AMRs, or other robotic platforms is a plus. What We Offer: - Highly competitive compensation and excellent career development opportunities in a fast-growing company - Flexible working hours - Wellpass (gym membership) - Free Snacks, Beverages, Lunch and Dinner while in the office - Full coverage of accommodation, meals, and travel expenses while on deployment - A motivated team and an open corporate culture ## About Sereact ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Sereact provides an embodied AI software layer that enables autonomous robotic picking, sorting, and inspection in industrial warehousing and logistics. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series B – $110M raised in May 2026) - **Headquarters**: Stuttgart, Germany (with additional offices in Mason, Ohio, USA and Boston, Massachusetts, USA) - **Founded**: 2021 - **Founders**: Not publicly listed (the company was founded by a team of engineers from the University of Stuttgart / ARENA2036 ecosystem) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Industrial robotics / AI software for logistics and supply chain - **Target customers**: B2B – 3PLs, e‑commerce fulfillment centers, manufacturing, and retail enterprises - **Mission**: “Bridging the gap between artificial intelligence and physical execution” – building the foundational software layer for the next era of industrial robotics. ## Products & Services - **Cortex (VLAM – Vision Language Action Model)**: The core AI brain that enables zero-shot adaptation across standard 6‑axis and humanoid robot arms. Handles picking, placing, sorting, and inspection without retraining or tuning. - **Robotic Picking**: Autonomous pick‑and‑place with 98% first‑attempt success and peak speeds >650 UPH. - **Putwall Automation**: Batch picking and sortation for high‑throughput fulfillment. - **Return Handling**: Automated inspection, sorting, and routing of returned items. - **Embodied AI for Humanoids**: Dexterity module for changing tasks and mixed‑SKU environments. ## Market Standing - **Valuation**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric – Total Funding**: $140.78M (including $110M Series B led by Headline, closed ~May 2026) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Headline (lead Series B); customers include Daimler Truck, Material Bank, Ludwig Meister - **Growth Signals**: - 50+ deployments across five continents - 500M+ real production picks processed - 99.9% uptime in live environments - 1 robot replaces 3–4.5 FTE, saving customers up to €111,000/month - Expansion into US market (offices in Ohio and Boston) ## Competitive Advantages - **Zero‑shot adaptability**: No retraining or retooling required when SKU mix changes – works out of the box on new items. - **Production‑proven VLAM**: Trained on millions of real‑world picks; works in brownfield sites, not just lab conditions. - **High reliability**: 98% first‑attempt pick success, >99% uptime, minimal human intervention (1 intervention per ~53,000 picks). - **Platform agnostic**: Supports standard 6‑axis and humanoid robot architectures. ## Strategic Focus - Scale deployments globally, especially in the US and Europe. - Continue advancing the Vision Language Action Model to handle increasingly complex manipulation tasks (e.g., humanoid dexterity). - Deepen partnerships with major logistics and manufacturing players. - Grow engineering and research teams to accelerate product development. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Fast‑paced, collaborative, with a strong emphasis on ownership and end‑to‑end project responsibility. Described as “uncharted territories” – ideal for engineers who want to push boundaries. - **Flexibility**: Flexible working hours and remote/hybrid options (specific policy not detailed, but “flexible working” is listed as a standard benefit). - **Perks**: Wellpass (wellness/fitness membership), regular team events, and a modern office in Stuttgart’s ARENA2036 innovation hub. - **Engineering focus**: Work on cutting‑edge embodied AI, computer vision, and robotics – from research to deployment. Steep learning curve and visible impact. - **Global exposure**: Opportunities to work across European and US teams. ## Sources 1. [sereact.ai – Homepage](https://sereact.ai/) 2.
