Challenging applications such as bin picking, sorting, packaging, and assembly are now open to fast, precise, and reliable automation. Apera is led by an experienced team from high-growth companies focused on robotics, artificial intelligence, and advanced manufacturing.
Let's End Robot Blindness
Robots can do amazing things, if they can see. That's where you come in.
We're Apera AI. Our breakthrough vision systems turn blind robots into intelligent, adaptable workers. But that transformation doesn't happen without people, especially the ones who teach others how to harness that power.
We're hiring a Field Application Engineer to lead customer deployments of our flagship vision platforms across North America.

install, configure, and commission Apera's AI-driven robotic vision systems at customer sites
conduct pre-deployment site audits to ensure readiness and compatibility
train customer teams on operation, troubleshooting, and optimization of deployed systems
respond to field issues quickly, diagnose root causes, and minimize downtime
gather technical feedback from deployments and collaborate with Product and Engineering to improve usability
track system performance post-installation and optimize with AI diagnostics and analytics
Why This Is a Career Move (Not Just a Job)
At Apera, we're not just installing robots - we're ending robot blindness.
Here's what makes this role special:
You're the face of innovation. You turn cutting-edge AI into real-world results on manufacturing floors across North America.
You create confidence. Through training and collaboration, you help customers see what's possible - and make it happen.
You drive impact. Every successful deployment, every confident operator, every uptime increase - that's your work in motion.
You grow fast. Exposure to robotics, AI, controls, and real-world integration will sharpen your skills faster than any classroom ever could.
What We're Looking For
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, or related field.
3-5 years in automation, robotics, or controls engineering
proven understanding of robotics, machine controls, and manufacturing systems
hands-on experience troubleshooting mechanical, electrical, or pneumatic systems
ability to read and interpret technical drawings and documentation
strong communication skills and willingness to travel up to 75% across North America
bonus: experience with industrial vision systems, FANUC or other industrial robots, or simulation tools like Roboguide
Why Apera?
Every employee is an owner - equity for all.
A culture of curiosity: we experiment, learn fast, and share openly.

Trusted by big-name automotive in TIER 1 suppliers.
