About the Role

We’re looking for a hands-on Field Operations Specialist to support the deployment, operation, and demonstration of Shifters’ autonomous robotic systems.

You’ll work directly with our engineering teams, customers, and operational partners to ensure our systems are ready for real-world missions. This role combines technical execution, customer interaction, field testing, and structured operational feedback.

If you are comfortable working with advanced technology in demanding environments, solving problems in real time, and representing the company in front of customers, this role is for you.

Responsibilities

• Prepare, operate, and maintain robotic systems during field tests, demonstrations, customer evaluations, and deployments
• Plan and execute field activities, including system setup, operational checks, mission preparation, and post-operation review
• Train and support customers and end users in the safe and effective operation of Shifters’ systems
• Troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, software, communication, and system-level issues in the field
• Coordinate closely with engineering, product, and integration teams before and during field activities
• Document field performance, operational feedback, technical issues, and lessons learned
• Translate customer and end-user feedback into clear, actionable input for internal teams
• Maintain equipment readiness, configuration control, and accurate operational records
• Represent Shifters professionally during customer engagements, exercises, conferences, and demonstrations
• Support domestic and international field activities as required
