Our mission is to elevate the world of manufacturing by introducing intelligent, flexible robots that enhance human capabilities and existing machinery, ushering in the next era of production at higher quality, with less waste, and lower cost. Our Vision: We see a future where every element of manufacturing, from design to assembly, is optimised with intelligent automation. Our vision is to integrate flexible robotic solutions, based on generic hardware and advanced software/AI capabilities, into manufacturing, particularly in small and medium-sized enterprises, to make automation economically viable and accessible, for all sizes of manufacturers. We are not just building robots; we are creating the strategically crucial components for autonomous, intelligent agents of the future. The Role: Sunrise Robotics is hiring a Robotics Integration Specialist to own the physical build and operational readiness of every robotic cell in our R&D environment. This role exists because the quality of what we ship to customers starts in the lab - and we need someone who takes that personally. In the next 6 months, you'll establish ownership over our in-office cells: building, wiring, testing, and maintaining them to a standard that lets our robotics and AI engineers move fast without being blocked by hardware. By month 12, you'll be the person who ensures every cell that leaves our facility is prepared, validated, and ready for a live production environment. You own that handoff. This is not a desk-bound role. You'll spend your time where the work happens - on the bench, beside the cells, and coordinating the lab activity that keeps R&D moving. You'll be the connective tissue between remote engineers who need hands-on support and the physical systems they're building on. What You’ll Do: - Own the build, wiring, and integration of all robotic cells in the lab - from initial assembly through to a fully functional, documented state. - Coordinate in-office and remote work on robot cells, managing the lab calendar and ensuring cells are available and ready when engineers need them. - Test and validate new peripherals, sensors, and hardware subsystems before they're relied on in development or customer delivery. - Support remote engineers with hands-on diagnostics, testing, and physical tasks they can't execute themselves. - Prepare each robotic cell for customer delivery - setting it up, validating its configuration, and ensuring it meets the bar before it ships. - Support QA activities and internal quality checks prior to deployment. - Maintain tooling, test rigs, safety infrastructure, and workshop resources so the lab is always operational. - Document every R&D cell - its configuration, status, and history - so the team always knows what they're working with. What You’ll Need: - Proven hands-on experience in robotics, automation, hardware development, or a closely related field. - Mechanical and electrical capability - comfortable with wiring, integration, and diagnosing hardware issues at the bench. - Working knowledge of Python, Linux, and ROS. - High degree of organisation and attention to detail, with a proactive approach to keeping systems functional and work unblocked. - Ability to manage multiple work streams independently without losing track of what's live, what's in progress, and what's at risk. - Clear, effective communication with both local and remote teams - able to translate physical realities into something engineers working remotely can act on. What Makes You Stand Out: - Experience with control panels, wiring standards, and electrical plans. - Familiarity with pneumatics, industrial actuators, or end-of-arm tooling. - Background in robotic cell integration or low-volume hardware prototyping. - Experience managing lab environments, test stations, or equipment inventories. - Comfort with basic CAD, schematics, and mechanical assembly documentation. - Skilled at moving robots with teach pendants and controlling computers in terminal. Why Us: We’re building a new category of intelligent, flexible robotic automation with real deployments, real customers, and momentum across Europe. - High exposure: Work directly with founders and leadership on decisions that shape the company’s trajectory - Career acceleration: Build rare, end-to-end exposure across hardware build, system integration, and customer delivery - all within a single, fast-moving robotics company. - Real impact: Your work runs in live production environments at real customers. Every cell you build, validate, and ship is something you can point to - and the team around you will notice the difference you make. ## About Sunrise Robotics Corporation ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Sunrise Robotics builds intelligent, autonomous robotic cells that transform industrial manufacturing by combining advanced AI with versatile hardware. - **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage) - **Headquarters**: Ljubljana, Slovenia - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: Marko Thaler (CTO), Tomaž Štolfa (CEO), Joe Perrott (CCO) ## Core Business - **Primary industry/industries**: Industrial robotics, manufacturing automation, industrial machinery manufacturing. - **Target customers**: B2B – manufacturing enterprises of all scales, especially those facing labor shortages and needing flexible automation. - **Mission or purpose statement**: “Augment humanity through intelligent robotics” – starting with industrial manufacturing to automate unsafe and undesirable work. ## Products & Services - **Sunrise Robotic Cell**: A dual-armed, AI-driven autonomous robotic cell that can be deployed in hours (plug-and-play), retrained quickly for new tasks, and operated safely at industrial speeds. Includes built-in radar-based safety (ISO 10218 / TS 15066 compliant), real-time perception, and a fleet learning system that improves over time. Type: Hardware + Software platform. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed. - **Key Metric**: Total funding – conflicting reports: **$8.5M** (seed round led by Plural Platform in July 2025) per LinkedIn; **$16.8M** total raised per CB Insights. Both cited below. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Lead investor: Plural Platform. Additional investors not fully disclosed (CB Insights mentions “One Ventures” but unconfirmed). - **Growth Signals**: Exited stealth in 2025; currently employs 37 people across 16 countries (UK, Slovenia, Spain, Ireland, Switzerland, Sweden, Italy, Croatia, Belgium, Denmark, others); 10 active job postings; monthly hiring trend +11.1% (though quarterly -41.2%). Founding team previously shipped 100M+ consumer electronics and built platforms serving 150M+ daily users. ## Competitive Advantages - **Dual-arm human-like coordination** with industrial strength – enables transfer of complex human operations to automation. - **Built-in AI perception** (radar + computer vision) for dynamic environment understanding and safe collaboration. - **Plug-and-play deployment** – needs only a three-phase outlet, up and running in hours, not months. - **Fleet learning** – each cell improves from every cycle, enabling continuous performance gains. - **Safety-first design** compliant with ISO 10218 / TS 15066. ## Strategic Focus - Scale the fleet of autonomous robotic cells across manufacturing verticals. - Reduce friction for manufacturers to adopt automation at any scale (not just high-volume). - Continue developing toward “general embodied intelligence” by integrating advanced AI with hardware. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Pan-European, collaborative team of engineers, scientists, roboticists, and company builders. Values-driven (mission to augment humanity). - **Remote/Hybrid Policy**: Hybrid – team regularly meets at the Ljubljana headquarters but works across 16 countries. - **Notable Perks/Engineering Culture**: Opportunity to work on cutting-edge AI + robotics from hardware to software; flat team structure; strong technical leadership (CTO holds PhD in Mechanical Engineering, built AI systems since 1999).
