Application Support Engineer, Fauna

Job ID: 10434562 | Amazon.com Services LLC We are looking for an Applications Engineer to join the Fauna Robotics support team. This role is hands‑on technical problem‑solving combined with operational ownership that helps the team scale. You will be a primary point of contact for customers experiencing issues with Fauna robots in the field, responsible for diagnosing problems that span hardware and software, and driving those issues to resolution with a high degree of independence. You will take active ownership of building and improving support infrastructure: establishing the tools, processes, documentation, and feedback loops that the team needs as our customer fleet grows. Responsibilities Serve as the primary technical point of contact for customer‑reported issues with Fauna robots, conducting remote troubleshooting and driving problems to root cause and resolution across hardware and software domains. Develop and maintain support infrastructure including ticketing/case management, knowledge base, troubleshooting playbooks, and corrective action documentation. Analyze and report on support metrics (response time, resolution time, issue categorization, repeat failure rates) to identify trends, surface insights, and inform product improvements. Communicate field issues clearly to engineering and software teams through structured reporting, advocating for resolution priority by providing field impact context and detailed reproduction steps. Refine and improve escalation criteria and handoff processes for issues requiring on‑site field support or bench‑level repair, identifying gaps and driving process improvements. Create and maintain customer‑facing and internal support documentation including troubleshooting guides, FAQs, known‑issue bulletins, and repair procedures. Collaborate with field engineers by providing diagnostic context and handoff documentation when issues require on‑site intervention. Proactively identify recurring issue patterns, build decision trees, and develop tools or scripts that accelerate troubleshooting and reduce resolution time. Basic Qualifications Experience troubleshooting and debugging technical systems, including strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities. 4 years of experience in a technical support, applications engineering, systems engineering, or field engineering role, or equivalent hands‑on experience working with robotic or electromechanical systems. Demonstrated ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to technical audiences, both verbally and in writing. Experience documenting technical processes, writing troubleshooting guides, or building knowledge base content. Ability to independently manage multiple open issues simultaneously, prioritize based on severity and customer impact, and drive problems to resolution. Preferred Qualifications Experience working with robotic systems in a support, integration, test, or applications role. Familiarity with hardware troubleshooting including mechanical assemblies, actuators, sensors, and electrical systems. Experience building or owning support documentation, knowledge bases, or operational processes. Background supporting highly technical customers (researchers, engineers, scientists). Experience setting up or administering case management or ticketing systems, not just using them. Familiarity with ROS, embedded systems, or common robotics middleware. Exposure to field service operations, spare parts management, or repair workflows.
