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.

I’m the founder, trying to do “enlightened business.” We are a people-first, fully-remote, boutique indie tech agency – building a team of talented, high integrity, and community-minded individuals first, then building businesses around them. Our leadership staff are ex-Fortune 100; everybody touches code. Notable recent projects: internal tools for Anduril, and the auction system for voltagepark.com.
We’re currently especially seeking:
Full-Stack Software Engineers (React, NextJS, Ruby on Rails; Typescript, Python; Database Design, Devops, and third-party API integrations)
IoT Developers (Python, MQTT, GraphQL, AWS, Test Infrastructure)
Please apply using this Google Form: https://forms.gle/Dxpj7eTwcHpjiGT39. Applicants who submit before January 15 will typically receive a reply by January 31. Tier3 roles are typically 5-10 y/o/e with $150-$175k annual total comp. Tier4 roles are 11-20 y/o/e, $210-$250k annual total comp. Higher tiers exist, and we welcome exceptional applications.
REGARDING DECEMBER - if you already submitted to last December's post, and haven't heard from us yet, we're still getting to you. The team's been working really hard over the last year, and I unexpectedly gave most of the folks helping me with job submissions the time off at the end of December / beginning of January. Apologies for the delay, and we will be with you soon. Rest assured there are jobs we're trying to fill - in fact, more than ever, it seems.
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.

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
