Pickle Robot is solving the long tail of physical automation. We deploy robots that autonomously unload trucks and trailers. The Perception team is expanding to tackle the chaotic reality of the loading dock.
I am hiring 5 Engineers across 4 technical tracks. I am also looking for short-term (~3-6 months) (computer vision) contractors based around Boston, MA.
See below for the opening on my team.
Senior Robotics Software Engineer: Architect a hybrid C++/Python stack to fuse multi-modal data (RGB-D, LiDAR) into a unified 3D world model https://jobs.lever.co/picklerobot/adb162fe-056b-4439-ad2e-e7...
Senior MLE (Eng): Build and deploy robust, high-performance computer vision models for the edge (NVIDIA Orin). https://jobs.lever.co/picklerobot/adf27300-1af5-4b9e-b471-e6...
Senior MLE (R&D): Tame the long tail of rare events and distill massive foundation models/VLMs into lightweight networks. https://jobs.lever.co/picklerobot/057c340d-4ec0-4f67-907b-8d...
MLE (Ops/Infra): Build data engines to support active learning and mine interesting events from our fleet data. https://jobs.lever.co/picklerobot/2dfc1a23-af48-4972-abe6-7d...
Contact: Email noe[at]picklerobot.com and mention "HN - Who is hiring?" in the subject. Please specify the role you are applying for and/or whether you are interested in contracting.
Note: We are also hiring across Engineering in Motion Planning, Task Planning, and Control. View all roles at: https://jobs.lever.co/picklerobot
Hi HN! We’re a YC-backed, Series-A startup building robots that build large-scale solar farms.
Check out a video of our first system here! https://youtu.be/ZZ2fP1Y5Z2E
It turns out that construction companies literally can't build solar fast enough, so what we're doing is a crucial part of switching the grid over to renewable generation.
You’ll be a key contributor, helping bring our next generation of mobile solar factory to life.
Come work with us if you love:
* Fast-paced prototype development with software and hardware components
* Making a positive climate impact through your work
* Hacking on massive construction equipment!
Senior Robotics Software Engineer: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/charge-robotics/b2aa347c-4738-4065-...

Work: - FastAPI, async Python, Supabase/Postgres - Designing APIs and data models for simulation and optimization workflows - Performance and reliability work across the stack (queries, async, concurrency, resource limits) - Job orchestration for running and tracking simulations - Observability: logging, metrics, tracing, debugging real issues
We are especially interested in people who work in a "vibe engineering" style: using LLMs and coding agents as accelerators, but still planning ahead, writing tests, supervising agents, and staying fully responsible for code quality and architecture. If you already use AI tools this way in your day-to-day work, you will fit in well here.
Stack: FastAPI, Python, Supabase/Postgres, distributed compute for simulations, AI-assisted dev.
Benefits: competitive salary, meaningful equity, remote-first, unlimited PTO, 401k match, medical/dental/vision, paid parental leave, home office budget.

StorPool is building the future of data storage. Our software runs at the heart of modern clouds, delivering <100µs latency, 113M+ IOPS per cluster, and 99.999% availability. We're profitable, self-funded, and our customers love us (NPS off the charts).
We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Core Storage team. You'll tackle genuinely hard problems: writing custom Linux drivers, optimizing lock-free data structures at nanosecond scale, building fault-tolerant distributed algorithms, and debugging issues that go all the way down to kernel internals. This isn't CRUD work - it's systems programming at its most challenging.
Competitive salary, fully remote, meaningful time off, and a yearly education budget to keep learning.
If you get excited about shaving microseconds off I/O paths and building infrastructure that simply doesn't break, we should talk.

Conductor lets you run a team of coding agents on your Mac. We launched in July through Show HN, and are used by engineers at companies like Linear, Vercel, Notion, Stripe, and YC.
We’re on a mission to build the human interface to AI organizations. We’re a team of four looking for one or two more exceptional engineers or designers. No AI experience needed, just some enthusiasm for the awesome alien power of LLMs.

You'll be working on solving every aspect of the rental journey, from models to predict the right price of a property, to building the future of property management, all to help tenants find their dream home, and landlords their ideal tenant.
We're VC backed, profitable, and have plenty of ambition to maintain our fast growth in this absolutely massive market.
Roles currently available:
- Lead Product Designer | Equity | 100k+ (based on experience) + quarterly bonus

We build mobile apps and supporting systems for long-haul truck drivers.
We have a critical DNS registrar/hosting migration to do this year and while I did the last one (on a less-critical domain), I'd really like support from someone who has done >5 of these to help our team get it right. Good news: no DNSSEC. =)
Please reach out to me at phil@eleostech.com and mention this post if this is you and you have a reference or two. It should be really easy project for the right person, but we'll compensate commensurate with the business risk.
There's definitely a way to do it without downtime.
