About the role

You'll build the robots that are showing up on factory floors across the country. Standard Bots is moving fast from prototype to high-volume production, and the people on the assembly line are the most important people in the building — this role sits right at the center of that. You'll work alongside the Production Supervisor and the engineering team, turning parts into precision robotic systems that are ready to work.

📍 Location

This is a full-time, on-site role at our Glen Cove, NY manufacturing facility, working first shift, Monday through Friday. We're unable to sponsor visas for this role.

What you'll do

- Assemble production robots and components to spec, following work instructions — hands-on work that takes a pile of parts and turns it into a finished machine.

- Run quality checks throughout the build, not just at the end, and report issues to the Production Supervisor as soon as you spot them.

- Keep your workspace safe and organized, in line with company and industry standards.

- Handle material movement and distribution to workstations so the line keeps running.

- Contribute to continuous improvement on the production floor — if you see a better way to build, we want to hear it.

What you'll bring

- A high school diploma or equivalent.

- 2+ years in a mass production or manufacturing environment.

- 1+ year of hands-on assembly, maintenance/repair, or tool experience.

- The ability to lift up to 50 lbs.

- Sharp attention to detail — you catch things, and you don't let things slide.

- Clear communication: you flag issues quickly and work well within a team.

- The ability to prioritize and stay focused when things are moving fast.

- A habit of showing up every shift ready to execute, and pride in clean, accurate assembly work.

Nice to have

- An Associate's or Bachelor's degree.

- Experience in automotive, aerospace, industrial, or electromechanical manufacturing.

- Machine shop or CNC equipment experience.

- Familiarity with OSHA standards and workplace safety practices.
