Robotics Application Engineer
Rhoda AI, Mountain View
The role
As an Application Engineer, you are the hands-on technical lead in the early stages of a customer engagement — Scoping, Proof of Principle (POP), and Proof of Concept (POC). You'll determine whether a use case is feasible, design and prototype the end effectors and task tooling a robot needs to do the job, write the data collection procedures that feed our models, and post-train Rhoda's AI model to perform the task. You'll spend real time on customer sites standing up POCs and showing what our platform can do.
The team
Application Engineering is where Rhoda's AI meets the real world. We work directly with customers to understand their operational problems, determine where our platform can deliver value, and lead the application of Rhoda's AI model end to end — from model post-training and data collection, to robot tooling and work-cell design, to production deployments on the customer's floor. The team sits at the intersection of engineering, product, deployment operations, and business, with members in the US and Germany.
