Field Technician - AgriTech Robotic Systems
Beewise
About Beewise
At Beewise, we develop and operate autonomous robotic beehives that actively protect and support bee colonies — enabling sustainable pollination and revolutionizing agri-tech.
We combine robotics, AI, and environmental tech to bring precision to the heart of nature.
Our operations are expanding rapidly in the U.S., and we’re building a growing technician team to ensure continuous monitoring, service, and performance across our hive network. This is an exciting time to join a developing operation with global impact, where your contributions shape real-world results.
Merced area, California (field-based, with occasional travel)
About the Role
We are looking for a motivated and hands-on Field Technician to join our operations team and support the deployment, maintenance, and repair of advanced robotic beekeeping and agri-tech systems. You will be working directly in agricultural environments — orchards, fields, and bee pastures — ensuring that our robotic hives and related equipment operate reliably.
This role is ideal for someone with 3+ years of field technician or assembly experience, who enjoys working outdoors, solving technical problems, and supporting sustainable agriculture.
What You’ll Do
- Perform maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs on robotic hive systems and related agri-tech equipment.
- Apply ECOs (engineering change orders) and implement system upgrades in the field.
- Support installation and setup of systems in orchards and bee pastures.
- Use a technician app and ticketing system to receive assignments and report completion of tasks.
- Carry out field assembly work, including electrical and mechanical adjustments.
- Collaborate with teammates and engineers, providing clear feedback and maintaining strong communication.
- Ensure equipment is safe, clean, and presentable at all times.
- Work primarily in the Merced area most of the year, with occasional travel for periods of 2 weeks to 1 month as needed.

- Strong troubleshooting skills and ability to work independently in outdoor conditions.
- Good teamwork, interpersonal, and communication skills — organized, professional, and customer-oriented.
- Experience working with ticketing systems for task assignment and reporting back.
- Living in the Merced area, with willingness to travel during certain seasons.
