Job Description
About Servo7
We’re a small team, building robots to automate how the world's goods are moved. We build AI-powered robots for the hardest, most demanding job in logistics: unloading loose-loaded shipping containers at the dock door, the entry point of the entire supply chain. Our robots work in the field, doing the job for paying customers. For 3 months in a row, we have doubled our customer base. Now, we need more engineers to keep up with demand.
Founded by a team with experience in military drones, surgical robots, LLM research, and world models. We have an office and a small factory in Amsterdam, The Netherlands (with an actual shipping container inside). We operate across western Europe, and we have global growth ahead of us.
Our first product is Mammoth, a mobile container unloading robot. One robot at the dock door that is deployed in just 45 minutes, unloading a full container. Mammoth reads the container in real time and handles each box as it finds it. We deploy, we watch, we fix, and deploy again. The whole loop, often within a single day. If you want to be part of a team that builds fast, consider applying.
What you’ll do
As our Forward Deployed Robotics Engineer, you are the person on the ground where our robots meet the real world. You deploy the robots on-site, keep it running, and solve whatever the real world throws at it.
- Deploying the robot on-site, owning it from arrival to a running robot.
- Diagnose and fix engineering problems in the field across mechanical, software, and controls, under real time pressure.
- Be the technical face to customer operations and floor teams: train them, set expectations, build trust.
- Feed learnings straight back to AI, software, and hardware teams so the whole product gets better with every deployment.
What we’re looking for
- You're an operational machine and a problem-solver. You’ve kept systems running in the real world, and you're the person people call when something breaks on-site.
- Strong engineering instincts across mechanical, software, and controls: you can localize a problem fast without owning every layer, and you're comfortable being technical in a live, messy environment.
- Proven experience working directly with customers or operators under pressure: you keep people confident while you fix the thing, and you know when to reassure versus when to escalate.
- You want to work in a startup: you'll get your hands dirty deploying, debugging and improving the product while having fun together.
Interview Process
(subject to change)
- 15-minute online screening. You’ll hear from us within one day
- A tour + lunch in our factory & office in Amsterdam
- Take-home questions related to deploying and debugging the robot in the field
- Presentation at the office & offer extended

About Servo7
You’re wasting millions of dollars on custom industry robots that take months to implement. Today, robotic automation means redesigning your entire facility for the robot to work. You need to change the floor plan, adjust conveyor belts, and re-educate your staff. This is inefficient and unnecessary. With Servo7, you don’t have to do any of that. Automating with Servo7 is simple and fast, because our robots: 1) Deploy in existing operations 2) Learn from simple demonstrations 3) Keep improving on the job We have previously worked on autonomous defense systems, LLMs, autonomous driving, and hyperloops. Not just in the lab, but actually deploying them in the field. We’re already working with warehouses to automate their fulfillment. If you work in assembly, manufacturing, or logistics, email [email protected]. We're onboarding our next partners now.
