• Enhance the existing capabilities of our robots, driving improvements in both speed and reliability to optimize unload performance
• Characterize the system’s performance across a vast quantity of data and use it to inform future work, building better understanding of the system’s current and potential performance
• Collaborate with cross-functional software engineering teams to seamlessly integrate your contributions into broader hardware and software systems
• Play a key role in designing and contributing to the architecture of scalable software systems that support the deployment of multiple robots in diverse and dynamic environments.
• Take ownership of key subdomains of the task planning system, providing context and guidance for fellow engineers who are less familiar with those aspects of the system

Who You are:

• A seasoned Software Engineer with 3-5 years of experience, preferably within robotics or a closely related field
• A graduate with a bachelor’s or master’s degree in robotics, computer science, or a similar discipline—Master’s degree preferred
• An engineer with a proven track record in developing autonomous robotic systems
• Highly proficient in object oriented programming with Python (or C++), with experience in other relevant languages as a plus
• Experienced in motion and behavioral planning for robots or other autonomous systems, with a deep understanding of these key areas
• Experienced in working with complex algorithms and data pipelines, capable of optimizing for performance and scalability
• Some experience with aggregation and analysis of data, with a good eye for recognizing trends and turning them into actionable responses
• A strong, clear communicator who centers discussion on ideas and experiments
• Willing and able to work from our Cambridge, MA office at least three days per week

About Pickle Robot
Pickle Robot is a pioneer in Physical AI for supply chain applications. Today Pickle robots autonomously unload trucks, trailers, and import containers at human-scale or better performance. The alternative is manual work that is difficult, dirty, sometimes dangerous, and increasingly hard to staff at distribution centers around the globe. Pickle Robot is laser focused on automating truck unloading using generative AI, machine learning, computer vision, advanced sensors, and industrial robotics to deliver engineered products customers rely on.

Pickle Robot Unload Systems work alongside people on loading docks to make the work safer, faster, and more efficient. Pickle robots are physical AI that unload trucks.

Pickle provides best-in-class benefits including health, dental, & vision insurance; unlimited vacation, along with all federal and state holidays; 401K contributions of 5% your salary, travel supplies, and other items to make your working life more fun, comfortable, and productive.
