Senior Field Deployment Engineer - Robotics and Automation

Mytra Robotics; Brisbane (CA); On-site; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Mytra Robotics seeks a Senior Deployment Engineer to own site delivery from construction to sustainment handoff, acting as the technical authority on the ground. You will work closely with trade contractors, deployment engineers, and customer operations teams to ensure readiness and smooth progression of commissioning milestones.

This role requires diagnosing site constraints, re-sequencing activities when needed, and escalating issues with clear decision packets.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of industry experience.
• Proven cross-functional leadership across trades, internal engineering, and customer teams without formal authority over them.
• Experience directing technicians or junior engineers on a site team — setting task direction, reviewing work quality, and closing gaps through coaching.
• Ability to read electrical schematics, mechanical drawings, wiring diagrams, and construction blueprints.
• Experience building and enforcing gate-driven QC and objective evidence capture.
• Strong trade contractor management: scheduling, sequencing, and holding quality across multiple trades on a live site.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end site delivery from construction through commissioning to sustainment handoff
• Hold and enforce the commissioning readiness gate — reject advancement until evidence-based acceptance criteria are met
• Surface every deployment's learnings — escapes, as-built deltas, playbook gaps — with enough context for the Deployment Lead to systematize them into program-wide improvements
• Coach Deployment Engineers on rigorous gate execution and the standard of evidence required to advance commissioning milestones; set the quality bar for deployment artifacts across the site team
• Manage sequencing and scheduling across trade contractors to keep site progress on track
• For decisions that exceed site authority, upscale to the Deployment Lead with a complete decision packet: evidence, root-cause hypothesis, proposed options, and a clear decision ask
