At the same time, Pio is a playground for what comes next. As part of the AutoStore ecosystem, you will help explore and shape the future of automation, including robotic arms, residential storage, vertical farming, and new retail experiences.

About The Role

At Pio, you will design and build APIs and backend systems that connect software and robotics, ensuring what we build is reliable and ready to scale.

Are comfortable making technical tradeoffs and taking ownership of solutions
Like working in a collaborative team where people support each other, share knowledge, and enjoy building together
Want to have a real impact on both the product and the way things are built
