Robotics Maintenance & Field Service Technician II / III (La Vegas)

 

Robotics Maintenance & Field Service Technician II / III — Remote, field-based out of Riverside / Inland Empire, CA. ~75% travel.

Are you the person everyone calls when something breaks? Are you tired of being stuck on one machine in one building, when what you really want is to own a fleet of robots in the real world — and be trusted to keep it running without anyone looking over your shoulder? At Tutor, your office is the customer site and the road. You'll be the face of Tutor on the West Coast: the person our customers know by name, call when they need help, and trust to keep their robots running.

You'll deploy, maintain, troubleshoot, and improve advanced robotic systems operating in customer facilities across the Western U.S. You'll own a territory anchored in California's Inland Empire — our Southern California cluster (Ontario, Perris, Fullerton) — with regular travel to Northern California (Stockton, Belmont) and surge, deployment, and NPI support nationwide as the fleet scales. Your mission is simple: keep the fleet happy and the customers happier. The work makes the technology better — every failure you document and root-cause feeds directly into the next generation of our product.

We're hiring across two levels. As a Level II, you'll independently own preventative maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs across your territory. As a Level III, you'll do all of that and serve as the regional escalation point for the West Coast — the call the rest of the field makes when they're stuck, the senior technical voice on the hardest diagnostics and root-cause work, and a mentor to the II/I techs as the regional bench grows. We hire for mindset over credentials: self-direction, accountability, and a genuine love of solving difficult technical problems matter more to us than any specific stack.
