What are the responsibilities and job description for the Electrical Engineer position at Pickle Robot Company?
About this role:
Pickle Robot Company is looking for an Electrical Engineer with experience in system design, analog/digital printed circuit boards, power electronics, system wiring/interfaces, test development, and failure analysis. They will lead and support the electrical engineering design, test, and successful implementation within a cross-functional R&D team.
What You’ll Accomplish:
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.
