Field Service Engineer — Robotics (Humanoid & Quadruped)

The role

Forge Robotics is an early-stage UK venture bringing humanoid, quadruped and specialist robots from leading overseas manufacturers to UK businesses through demonstrations, trials, pilot programmes and Robotics-as-a-Service.

As our Field Service Engineer you are the person who makes robots work in the real world: unboxing, commissioning, configuring, demonstrating, servicing and repairing platforms at customer sites across the UK. You will work directly with the founding team and with manufacturer support engineers, and help define how Forge delivers service as we grow.

What you will do

• Commission and configure humanoid, quadruped and specialist robots for demonstrations, trials and pilots
• Deliver on-site installation, preventative maintenance, diagnostics and repair
• Run customer demonstrations and train operators in safe use
• Work with manufacturer technical teams on escalations, firmware and spares
• Feed field learnings back into our trial planning and robot selection
• Help build the service playbooks, tooling and spares operation from the ground up

What we are looking for

• Hands-on field service, maintenance or commissioning experience with robots, automation, or complex electromechanical equipment
• Strong electrical and mechanical fault-finding skills
• Comfort with software-configured hardware — networking, controllers, calibration, logs
• Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel UK-wide
• Clear communicator who is confident in front of customers
• Desirable: ROS/ROS 2 exposure, robot safety standards awareness, manufacturer service training
