Über diese Workshop and Facilities Technician Stelle bei Gravisrobotics
Gravis Robotics is a high-growth Series A start-up backed by SoftBank, bringing Physical AI to the construction industry, turning heavy construction machines into autonomous robots.
Gravis began as an ETH Zurich spin-out, and our unique combination of learning-based automation and augmented remote control lets one operator safely conduct a fleet of earthmoving machines in a gamified environment.
Backed by deep robotics research and now deployed across multiple countries with leading construction and equipment partners, our team is rapidly growing to bring this technology to a trillion-dollar industry.
The Gravis RACK is a machine-agnostic retrofit kit that adds autonomy to excavators and wheel loaders from 10 to 100+ tonnes: LiDAR and camera sensing, GNSS RTK, networking hardware and rugged edge compute that works offline. Paired with the Slate tablet and our Copilot software, it lets an operator run a machine manually, with AI assistance, or fully autonomously.
About the role
We are looking for a workshop and facilities technician to own our mechanical workshop that allows our engineers to build world class autonomous excavators at Gravis. You will work with our teams in Zurich to help with our everyday operations to support our development of custom AI hardware for safe and reliable operation of heavy machines. You are capable of working both independently and with others, and are intrinsically driven to solve challenging applied problems with a rigorous attention to detail and an exploratory imagination.
What you will do
Workshop ownership
Run our mechanical workshop: layout, storage, tools, cleanliness, and safety
Manage tools and machines from procurement over calibration to servicing and repair
Keep measurement instruments in a state where we can trust the data
Facilities and site work
Handle the everyday physical work around the offices and workshop: installs, furniture, moves, mounting, repairs, small builds
Coordinate external contractors for ventilation, electrical, HVAC, and larger works brief them, check their work, sign it off
Plan and execute workshop moves and reconfigurations
Production support
Work alongside our production engineers on assembly, test, and final inspection of units
Learn the full build and test process well enough to run it independently during holidays, sick leave, and demand peaks. This is a core part of the role, not an occasional favour
Kitting, incoming inspection, rework, and documentation of the assembly process
Shipping, receiving, and logistics
Pack and crate hardware properly, including heavy and sensitive equipment
Receive, inspect, and route incoming goods
What we're looking for
Beneficial Experience
This is an opportunity to join a dynamic, multidisciplinary team and to be part of a company that is reshaping heavy construction.
