Forward Deployed Engineer

OUR MISSION: At Sunrise Robotics, we are dedicated to augmenting humanity through intelligent robotics. 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: At Sunrise Robotics, this Forward Deployed Engineer role exists to make our robotic systems work reliably in real factories, and to turn each deployment into something we can repeat and scale. You’ll own end-to-end delivery in live production environments, working directly with customers to get systems running and meeting real production requirements. At the same time, you’ll identify what slows us down or breaks across deployments, and help turn those insights into improvements in our product, tools, and processes. You are not just someone who installs machines and leaves. You are the bridge between the field and our development team - the person who has seen the full cycle from design through to live production, and who brings that knowledge back to make us better. WHAT YOU’LL DO: - Deploy Sunrise robotic systems in live manufacturing environments and deliver successful customer go-lives - Act as the primary technical point of contact for customers during integration and ramp-up - Own system performance during deployment, ensuring solutions meet defined operational and reliab
