Sobre este puesto de Backend Software Engineer – Software Architecture en Picklerobot
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 Backend Software Engineer to join our Software Architecture team and build the scalable systems that support robotic workflows. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering and robotics infrastructure — you'll work closely with robotics engineers to design backend services that power real robotic systems on the warehouse floor, bringing solid engineering practices into an environment where you're not afraid to get close to the hardware.
What You'll Do
What You'll Bring
- 5+ years of experience in backend or distributed systems engineering
- Strong programming experience in Python
- Proficiency in at least one other strongly typed language — C++ preferred, though others used in robotics (e.g., Rust, Go, Java) are welcome
- Strong understanding of software architecture, concurrency, and distributed system design
- Experience building or supporting event-driven systems, messaging frameworks, or service-oriented architectures
- A clear communicator who can work independently and help teammates grow
- Experience developing systems that interface with hardware, robotics, or real-world operational environments is a plus
- Experience with real-time systems
- Experience managing large volumes of data
- Deep knowledge of robotics middleware (e.g., ROS, Zenoh, DDS)
- Deep knowledge of GPUs
Stand-out candidates will have one or more of the following:
