Trainer

We are an innovative, Vancouver-based startup at the forefront of robotics, AI, and machine vision technologies. Backed by VC funding and we’ve been recognized with the 2025 Frost & Sullivan Technology Innovation Leadership Award, the AAM Supplier Excellence Innovation Award, and the 2024 BC Tech “Company of the Year – Growth”, we are on a mission to redefine the future of AI-driven robotic vision systems.  Apera AI helps manufacturers make their factories more flexible and productive. Robots enhanced with Apera’s software have 4D Vision – the ability to see and handle objects with human-like capability. Challenging applications such as bin picking, sorting, packaging, and assembly are now open to fast, precise, and reliable automation. Apera is led by an experienced team from high-growth companies focused on robotics, artificial intelligence, and advanced manufacturing.

Let’s End Robot Blindness 

Robots can do amazing things, if they can see. That’s where you come in. We’re Apera AI. Our breakthrough vision systems turn blind robots into intelligent, adaptable workers. But that transformation doesn’t happen without people, especially the ones who teach others how to harness that power.

We’re looking for a Trainer who can translate vision AI into human confidence. Someone who lights up in front of a class, thrives on interaction, and sees every training session as a launchpad for adoption, retention, and ROI.

This is a training-first role, not tech support, not implementation. You’ll guide customers and integrators from “this seems pretty cool” to “how did we ever live without it?” 

What You’ll Actually Do:

• Pre-sales training that educates and excites - giving future customers a taste of what’s possible. 
• Onboarding programs that empower new users to go from curious to confident. 
• Re-onboarding and advanced training for existing users as we roll out new capabilities. 
• Deliver structured training sessions virtually and onsite: clear, repeatable, and energizing. 
• Improve everything - content, delivery, outcomes - using real-time feedback + AI learning insights. 
• Build lasting trust as the friendly, technical, human voice of Apera AI 

Why This is a Career Move (Not Just a Job) 

At Apera AI, you’re not training robots. You’re training the humans who make intelligent automation real. This role sits at the crossroads of technology, communication, and transformation. Every session you deliver turns curiosity into capability, and capability into confidence.

This isn’t classroom repetition: it’s industry evolution. You’ll shape how global manufacturers adopt robotic vision AI and redefine how people and machines work together. The programs you lead will directly drive customer success: faster adoption, higher ROI, and a tangible shift in how factories think about automation.

Within your first year, you’ll see the results of your work everywhere: in faster robot deployments, empowered teams, and customers who now swear by technology they once doubted. You’ll be the human face of Apera’s breakthrough, translating complex AI robotic vision systems into practical, empowering learning experiences that change how the world builds, moves, and creates.

If you’ve ever wanted to be part of a movement, not just a company, this is your moment. You’ll grow your influence across industries, sharpen your craft at the frontier of robotics and AI, and help define what “smart manufacturing” really means.

This isn’t a support role. It’s the human engine behind the AI revolution.

Here’s what makes this role special: 

• It’s not support - it’s strategic. You drive adoption, retention, and revenue. That’s impact. 
• You’re on the frontlines of a movement. We’re ending robot blindness. You’re the catalyst. 
• You get freedom to shape how we teach. No stale manuals. No rinse-and-repeat delivery. 
• You’ll work cross-functionally. Marketing, Product, Engineering, Sales, Customer Success, you’re everyone’s secret weapon. 

What We’re Looking For 

• Experience delivering technical or product training (live and virtual) 
• Confidence speaking to varied audiences: operators, engineers, execs 
• Bonus points if you’ve trained on automation, robotics, or B2B software/hardware 
• Curiosity, clarity, humor, and love for making others feel smart.
