    HELP SHAPE THE FUTURE OF ROBOTICS WITH US!

    ABOUT TINY MILE:

    We're making last-mile delivery faster, cheaper and greener.

    We deploy remotely-piloted electric sidewalk robots that provide a safe, contactless delivery option to restaurants, pharmacies, and other retail partners and their customers.

    We've raised $10M in funding from notable investors who believe Tiny Mile has hit an inflection point. Some of our investors include Animo Ventures, Bedrock, Golden Ventures and Naspers.

    WHY TINY MILE EXISTS:

    We're solving a real problem.

    The transportation sector is among the highest polluters, accounting for 29% of greenhouse gas emissions. Urban last-mile delivery emissions alone are set to increase by 30% by 2030 due to the rise in e-commerce.

    Our robots use as much electricity as a lightbulb, are fully electric, and free up congested road space by 'right-sizing' vehicles for local small parcel delivery. Imagine getting medication from your local pharmacy delivered in -20 Celsius weather for less than it costs to fill the prescription.

    Transportation has always been the backbone of the economy. Our delivery robots are here to ease trade and foster economic growth. Join us and be part of this uncharted territory!

    POSITION DETAILS:

    • Annual salary: $40,000-$50,000
    • Job type: Contract, 1 Year (with the possibility of extension)
    • Schedule: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
    • Location: Downtown Miami
    • Physical requirements: Capable of occasionally lifting 75 lbs
    • Additional requirements: Valid driver's licence

    WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:

    As a ROBOT TECHNICIAN, you'll work directly with our robots daily.

    Your primary responsibilities are repairing and troubleshooting any mechanical, electrical and software issues to maintain an operational fleet. You're that crucial link that connects robot operations with our Engineering and Development Research teams.

    This position is perfect if you're eager to jump into the field of robotics and learn more about a state-of-the-art delivery robot. Fast learners will particularly exceed in this position due to many new and exciting features regularly introduced to the robots.

    The ROBOT TECHNICIAN will:

    • Upkeep robot operations within downtown Miami by repairing and maintaining a fleet of delivery robots
    • Manage our robot repair shop by maintaining spare parts inventory and tools
    • Interact with remote robot pilots and dispatchers to track the status of our fleet
    • Communicate with robot operators to identify issues and update operational schedule
    • Rescue robots and deliveries in case of emergencies:
      • Robot rescues: Check if the robot can be restored to operation on-site. If not, then the robot has to be returned to the workshop for repairs
      • Cargo rescues: The items meant to be delivered by a robot need to be hand-delivered to the address. We want to ensure a seamless delivery, even when technical issues may arrive

    WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

    • Knowledge of electrical fundamentals. These include voltage, current, batteries, DC motors, KCL, etc.
    • Confidence in using power tools, hand tools, and precision tools
    • Ability to work with sheet metal, screws, bolts, etc.
    • Willingness to learn new tools, such as Linux OS and using command line and Bash scripts
    • Strong organizational skills that enable repairs to be done smoothly and efficiently
    • Strong communication skills that maintain a high standard even under pressure

    NICE TO HAVES:

    • A degree in Mechatronics, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or similar
    • Experience working with multimeters, oscilloscopes, wires, connectors, and crimpers

    WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US:

    • Growth: You'll be an early employee working directly with a cross-functional team that spans mechanical engineers to robot pilots.
    • Leadership: Our CEO, Ignacio Tartavull, truly empowers all members of our team to have an impact on Tiny Mile and our future.
