Boston Dynamics

Boston Dynamics is a world leader in mobile robots, tackling some of the toughest robotics challenges. For years, our awe-inspiring viral videos on YouTube have shown the world what remarkably capable robots can do. Now we are quickly becoming a recognized leader in automation solutions for industrial applications and warehouse logistics.

As a Sales Engineer supporting the Sales organization for Spot, our quadruped robot, you will help highlight the “art of the possible,” guide customers on the journey of making mobile autonomous robots part of their day-to-day operations, and execute on your team's process to ensure our customers find value from Spot. You will accomplish this by aligning our robot’s capabilities, any relevant sensors, communications, software, and services into a defined workflow, with an SOW, to map out how our customers will get value out of the solution.

You will also enable your team and our salespeople to showcase all the best capabilities that Boston Dynamics has to offer. You will need to communicate effectively with a broad spectrum of stakeholders, both internally and externally, explore use cases with operators of Spot and guide them on the path that brings the fastest value from our solutions.
