Gecko Robotics is helping the world’s most important organizations ensure the availability, reliability, and sustainability of critical infrastructure. Gecko's complete and connected solutions combine wall-climbing robots, industry-leading sensors, and an AI-powered data platform to provide customers with a unique window into the current and future health of their physical assets. This enables real-time decision making to increase the efficiency and safety of operations, promote mission readiness, and protect the environment and civilization from the effects of infrastructure failure.
We are hiring a Senior Quality Engineer to build, formalize, and support the quality systems that underpin our product development and robot operations. This role spans the full quality lifecycle — from establishing robust processes and inspection disciplines to driving supplier accountability, internal audit rigor, and systematic corrective action.
You will work cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and supply chain teams to ensure that our inspection services are implemented effectively and efficiently — and that when problems arise, they are resolved at their root cause and don't recur.
This is a hands-on role suited for a quality professional who is comfortable in both the details of technical standards and the dynamics of cross-functional collaboration. You'll have direct visibility into how your work shapes product reliability, supplier performance, and operational efficiency.
This role includes up to 25% travel to other Gecko Robotics locations (Houston, United Arab Emirates, etc), supplier sites, and field environments.
