Field Support Specialist, Missouri St. Louis

Field Support Specialist, Missouri St. Louis

Eyebot is an outcome-focused technology company on a mission to make vision care accessible to everyone, equally. Headquartered in Boston's Charlestown neighborhood and backed by top investors and the National Science Foundation, our vision test kiosk is reshaping how vision care is delivered.

If you are passionate about solving big problems and building the future of vision care, we would love to hear from you.

Eyebot is seeking Field Support Specialists to serve as a local presence for our kiosk network in the St. Louis, Missouri area. In this role, you will visit retail locations on a regular cadence to check in with store staff, assess how our kiosks are performing in the field, and provide hands-on training and encouragement to associates. You will be a key part of how Eyebot maintains strong relationships with its retail partners and drives kiosk utilization across your territory.

This is a 1099 independent contractor engagement. We're hiring across three regional territories, each covering six to seven store locations. Reliable transportation is required, as some circuits involve several hours of regional drive time between locations.

The St. Louis Metro territory will cover stores in Shrewsbury, Maplewood, Chesterfield, St. Ann/Bridgeton, Ferguson, and Florissant.

You will visit each assigned store location in person approximately once per month, plus a brief weekly phone check-in with most locations to stay connected between visits. Expect roughly 12.5 to 15 hours of work per week depending on territory, factoring in store visits, drive time, phone check-ins, and travel planning. Specific visit logistics and scheduling will be confirmed at engagement start.

You'll occasionally be asked to attend a wellness event at one of your stores when the location schedules one. These come up as needed rather than on a fixed calendar, and you'll get advance notice.

Your first few weeks will include onsite training at Eyebot's Boston headquarters, followed by ride-alongs with current Field Support team members before you begin independent store visits in your territory.

Visit assigned retail locations approximately once a month to check in on kiosk operations and store staff engagement.

Maintain a weekly phone check-in with most assigned locations to stay on top of store conditions between visits.

Build relationships with store associates and managers, serving as a trusted and approachable point of contact for Eyebot in the field.

Gauge store staff sentiment toward the Eyebot kiosk and surface insights back to the Eyebot team both the positive signals and the friction points.

Conduct in-person training sessions for store associates on how to use and recommend the Eyebot kiosk to customers.
