Job description

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 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.

What You'll Do

  • 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

What You'll Bring

  • 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.
