Roboteam named best employer for veterans

Roboteam values veterans skills and experience

(May 7, 2018) Roboteam, Inc is the leading global provider of tactical ground robotic systems for defense, law enforcement and public safety. They have announced that they have been selected as the “Best for Vets: Employer” for 2018, by the Military Times.

Roboteam manufactures and sells a complete product line of mobile robots which aid our service men and women by providing battle field intel and remote bomb manipulation. Their products enable our troops to remain in a safe location while scouting remotely with the Roboteam vehicles. Roboteam hires a large number of vets to help in the design, manufacturing and servicing of the Roboteam products. By leveraging the battlefield experience of the vets, Roboteam is able to continue to develop cutting edge products.

“The companies on the Military Times Best for Vets list earned their rankings through determined efforts to recruit and support service members, veterans and military families,” said George Altman, the Military Times editor in charge of the rankings. “These efforts deserve recognition from the country and should get the attention of veterans looking for a new career.” Through a competitive process, Military Times invites companies to fill out its nearly 100-question survey, tests to ensure the accuracy of responses, carefully evaluates survey data and includes only the best companies in its published rankings. This is a valuable resource for veterans – and a coveted honor for companies around the country.

“Having a veteran-friendly workplace environment has allowed us to become a tight-knit team that works tirelessly to get the job done. This bond is not only felt between our team members, but our customers become a part of the Roboteam family and know that their needs will always be met”, said Shahar Abuhazira, CEO of Roboteam, Inc.

In addition to products which serve our troops, Roboteam products are also used by Law Enforcement and Public Safety officers. They develop lightweight, fast deployable unmanned ground systems which put distance between the operator and the situation at hand.
