Robot Qa Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About us

At Gideon, we are building the future of logistics, manufacturing, and industrial environments with AI- and 3D vision-powered autonomous robots. Our mission is to automate complex, people-operated workflows so humans can focus on higher-value, more fulfilling work.

If you're ready to join us and be part of this journey, read on!

Our team of 100+ spans hardware and software engineering, product, operations, commercial, and corporate functions. Together, we design and deploy robots that improve safety, efficiency, and scalability across some of the world's most demanding environments. We believe robots should amplify human potential, not replace it. Everything we build is centered on enabling people to become designers, operators and leaders of automated age.

We are looking for a Robotics QA Engineer to join our growing team and help ensure the quality and reliability of our robotic solutions. This role will be primarily based at our Bolingbrook, IL facility, which serves as our main QA and testing hub in the US, where robots are prepared, validated, and tested before shipment to customers.

As the first QA presence at this location, you will play a key role in establishing testing workflows, preparing robots for demos and shipment, and ensuring high-quality standards in collaboration with our QA team based in Croatia. You will work closely with a highly skilled international robotics team, particularly with QA and R&D colleagues in Croatia, while reporting directly to the QA Team Lead located in Croatia.

This is a great opportunity for a self-starter who enjoys ownership, hands‑on testing with robots, and working in an international engineering environment. The role offers the chance to build and shape the QA presence in our US facility, work with cutting‑edge robotics technology, and gain hands‑on experience with real robotic systems in real‑world testing environments—not just simulations.

• Work closely with the QA and R&D teams in Croatia to identify testing areas and define effective test strategies
