What We Do
Gecko Robotics is helping the world’s most important organizations ensure the availability, reliability, and sustainability of critical infrastructure. Gecko's complete and connected solutions combine wall-climbing robots, industry-leading sensors, and an AI-powered data platform to provide customers
with a unique window into the current and future health of their physical assets. This enables real-time decision making to increase the efficiency and safety of operations, promote mission readiness, and protect the environment and civilization from the effects of infrastructure failure.
Role At A Glance
Are you self-motivated and want to see the impact of your work making a difference every day? Are you continually driving yourself and others to find better ways to solve tough problems using solid engineering fundamentals and practices? Does building scalable, modular solutions that impact the lives of millions of people across the globe sound exciting to you?
Gecko Robotics’ hardware engineering team develops, prototypes, tests, and supports our line of inspection robots. As a mechanical technician within the hardware engineering team, you will be involved in multiple aspects of developing and supporting our robots: prototyping, assembly, testing, troubleshooting, and servicing.
What You Will Do
At Gecko, our people are our greatest investment. In addition to competitive compensation packages, we offer company equity, 401(k) matching, gender-neutral parental leave, full medical, dental, and vision insurance, mental health and wellness support, ongoing professional development, family planning assistance, and flexible paid time off.
Gecko values collaboration, innovation, and partnership, and we believe we do our best work when we're together in person. We’re an office-first culture but understand that sometimes you may need to work from home. Many people are in the office five days a week, others need a bit more flexibility. Ultimately, we care about the outcomes we achieve - and creating a culture of autonomy and trust that enables that impact.
Gecko is committed to creating a culture of inclusion and belonging, and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We believe it is our collective responsibility to uphold these values and encourage candidates from all backgrounds to join us in our mission to protect today’s infrastructure and give form to tomorrow’s.
