Paired with the Slate tablet and our Copilot software, it lets an operator run a machine manually, with AI assistance, or fully autonomously.\nAbout the Role\nWe're building out our US field operations and are looking for a Site Manager to run the Gravis system on customer job sites. You'll lead our operators and technicians on site, keep autonomous work running smoothly, and be the day-to-day contact for the contractors and customers we work with.\nThe role sits between construction and robotics: you'll read a grading plan and direct a crew as easily as you work through a technical problem with our engineers. This is not a desk job.\nWhat you will do\nPlan and direct daily autonomous operations with the customer's site team\n\nLead Gravis operators and technicians on site\n\nWork with the Safety Manager to follow site safety plans\n\nConfirm site readiness before autonomous work begins\n\nCoordinate with customer crews and other contractors\n\nTrack and report production, downtime and issues\n\nManage project schedules, budgets and change orders\n\nCoordinate subcontractors and support project invoicing\n\nReport schedule, cost and risk to customers and leadership\n\nWrite site operating procedures\n\nFeed field insights back to R&D\n\nWhat we're looking for\n5+ years running heavy civil, earthwork, mining or industrial operations as a superintendent, foreman or operations manager\n\nExperience directing equipment operators and field crews, and managing schedules, budgets and subcontractors\n\nAbility to read construction drawings, site plans, survey data and grading plans\n\nWorking knowledge of OSHA\n\nExperience training people and writing procedures\n\nClear communication with customers, crews and engineers\n\nComfort with software and new technology\n\nValid US driver's license\n\nAdditional Beneficial Skills\nExperience with autonomy, robotics or machine control\n\nExperience launching a new site or program\n\nExperience working with an international engineering team\n\nLocation & Travel\nBased in the Taylor, TX area and working on site at customer projects, with travel to other job sites as projects require.\nDon't meet every requirement? If you're enthusiastic about this role but your experience doesn't match every qualification, we still encourage you to apply. You might be the perfect candidate for this or other positions.\nThis is an opportunity to join a dynamic and versatile team and to be part of a young startup that is revolutionizing heavy construction. Gravis Robotics offers a competitive salary and the opportunity to work on problems with real global impact.\nGravis is an equal opportunity employer.
