Robotic unloading solutions for warehouses
Salary Range: 60000 to 74000 (Currency: USD) (Pay period: per-year-salary)
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 a Manufacturing Technician with a strong electrical background to lead complex builds on our robotic systems, focusing on wiring, electrical cabinet assembly, and controls hardware integration. This is a senior technician role — you’ll work with minimal oversight, serve as the primary point of contact for electrical build-floor troubleshooting, and train junior technicians on electrical systems and safety.
Lead end-to-end builds of electrical subsystems — wiring harnesses, electrical cabinets, sensor and motor wiring, and controls hardware integration
Serve as the primary troubleshooting resource for electrical build issues on the floor, diagnosing problems others escalate to you
Perform continuity testing, wiring verification, and electrical safety checks per defined procedures
Train and mentor junior technicians on electrical build steps, wire routing standards, and safety practices
Regularly surface DFM/DFA issues to Engineering that you catch during electrical builds — connector fit, harness routing, labeling clarity — and propose workable fixes, not just flag problems
Maintain accurate, complete electrical build and test records
Also supports mechanical assembly builds when needed
3+ years of hands-on electrical assembly experience — wiring, harnessing, panel/cabinet builds, or similar electro-mechanical work
Comfortable reading electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and connector pinouts
Experience with hand tools and test equipment specific to electrical work: crimpers, wire strippers, multimeters, continuity testers
Strong troubleshooting instincts — able to diagnose the root cause of an electrical issue, not just identify that something’s wrong
Comfortable training and mentoring less experienced technicians
Prior experience in robotics, automation, or industrial controls electrical assembly is a strong plus
Familiarity with basic electrical safety standards (lockout/tagout, E-stop systems) preferred
Positive attitude and strong communication skills; willingness to learn and share knowledge with others.
Robotic unloading solutions for warehouses
Pickle Robot builds robotic systems that help unload trucks and containers at warehouse loading docks for logistics and e-commerce operations. The robots work alongside human workers to handle heavy or repetitive unloading tasks, using onboard sensors and software to coordinate paths and actions. Revenue comes from selling or leasing robots and providing maintenance and software licenses. The company focuses on dock-side automation to differentiate itself by offering flexible ownership models and ongoing support, aiming to improve safety and speed of unloading while reducing worker fatigue.
