About Acrylic

At Acrylic, we're redefining the future of fine art by merging robotics, machine learning, and traditional artistry. Our technology enables visual artists to produce textured artwork made with real paint on canvas — at scale. We believe in making fine art accessible while ensuring artists can earn a sustainable living.

The Role: Robotic Operator (Summer 2026 Internship)

We're looking for a full-time Robotic Operator to join our team in Montreal. You'll work directly with our robotic painting systems, ensuring smooth daily operations and contributing to the production of artworks that will reach collectors and galleries around the world.

This role is hands-on, fast-paced, and collaborative — perfect for someone who is curious about how robotics and automation intersect with the arts. No prior robotics experience is required; we'll train you. What we value most is your attention to detail, problem-solving ability, and eagerness to learn.

What You'll Do

As a Robotic Operator, you will:

• Run robotic painting sessions: Prepare canvases, load instructions, and oversee production runs to ensure accuracy and consistency.
• Monitor system performance: Watch for errors or irregularities and make quick adjustments to keep production on track.
• Maintain equipment: Carry out basic maintenance, cleaning, and calibration to keep machines running smoothly.
• Troubleshoot issues: Identify and resolve minor technical or mechanical issues with guidance from our engineering team.
• Coordinate logistics: Manage packing and shipping of completed artworks, ensuring they arrive safely and on time.
• Track performance: Keep detailed records of runs, maintenance, and output quality to support continuous improvement.

What You'll Gain

This internship offers the chance to:

• Develop practical skills in robotics and automation through direct, hands-on work.
• Learn how technology and fine art intersect in a unique, startup environment.
• Build problem-solving, troubleshooting, and operational management skills that are highly transferable to both engineering and creative industries.
