About Us
At Pickle Robot, we're on a mission to automate global supply chains with Physical AI. Our robots work alongside warehouse teams to unload trucks and containers — one of the toughest, most understaffed jobs in logistics — making the work safer, faster, and more efficient for the people doing it. Loading trucks comes next, followed by the Dill Autonomy Engine: generalized autonomy that will eventually orchestrate robots across entire logistics processes.
We're looking for an applied ML engineer to own one of our hardest technical problems: how a robot decides what to grasp, and how to grasp it. The answer is a fusion of classical robotics with state-of-the-art neural networks, and you'd be the person setting its direction on a team of two.
This is a senior seat — you'll be trusted to pick the approach, not just implement one. If you've gotten your hands dirty with both ML systems and real robot platforms, and you want problems that are technically deep and practically grounded, this is the role.
