Field Deployment Engineer (m/f/d)

About Us Sereact is a rapidly growing embodied AI company revolutionizing industrial intelligence. We develop advanced robotics and artificial intelligence solutions that enable robotic systems to sense, reason, and act in real-world warehouse and factory environments — helping businesses streamline operations, increase productivity, and transform physical work. Role Overview As a Field Deployment Engineer, you will lead the installation and deployment of our AI-powered robotic systems at customer sites across Europe. This is a dynamic, hands-on engineering role that combines technical leadership with practical implementation to ensure successful system integration in high-automation production environments. You will plan and coordinate deployments, collaborate closely with internal engineering teams, project managers and customer stakeholders, and take end-to-end responsibility for the complete installation, integration, and commissioning process onsite. This is a hands on role where you will contribute directly to mechanical and electrical work to support live systems, helping install new systems, and troubleshoot robotic systems during on-site deployments.

Your Responsibilities

Deployment Leadership

• Lead the installation and commissioning of robotic systems at customer facilities.

• Coordinate deployments with internal engineering teams, contractors, and customer personnel.

• Coordinate deployments with internal engineering teams, contractors, and customer personnel.

• Plan installation workflows and ensure deployments are executed safely and efficiently.

• Serve as the primary technical contact during on-site deployments.

• Ensure systems meet operational, performance, and safety requirements prior to production handoff.

System Installation & Integration

• Install and integrate robotic arms, grippers, sensors, cameras, and mobile platforms.

• Contribute directly to mechanical and electrical installation of robotic systems.

• Mount and replace end-effectors such as grippers and tooling.

• Route and secure electrical and communication cables within robotic cells and control cabinets.

• Assist with installation, wiring, and modification of control cabinets and electrical components.

• Drill, tap, mount, and modify brackets, fixtures, and mounting hardware as required for system integration.

• Conduct on-site system testing and validation.

Troubleshooting & Optimization

• Diagnose and resolve mechanical, electrical, and software issues during deployment.

• Replace or repair hardware components such as grippers, sensors, actuators, and cabling.

• Optimize system performance for efficiency, speed, and accuracy in production environments.

• Provide technical training and support to customer teams.

• Document installation procedures, configurations, and lessons learned from deployments.

• Collaborate with internal engineering teams to improve system robustness and deployment processes.

• Support customer sites across Europe remotely when not actively on deployment.

Travel Willingness and ability to travel extensively across Europe (approximately 75%) is required for this role.
