We create automation technology for the cannabis industry.
Sorting Robotics is a fast-growing company that specializes in automating the cannabis industry.
We have a talented and self-motivated team of mechanical, electrical, and software developers focused on creating the best machines possible.
We seek an experienced Software Developer to join our team and help us take our technology to the next level!
Responsibilities
Sometimes, nothing will work, and you'll need to conduct experiments until the problem's root cause (hardware or software-related) is fully understood.
Before writing any code, you must deeply understand complex topics and communicate proposed solutions to a highly technical team. Ideally, you write the minimum number of lines that solve the problem ("spin lock? Why not? It solves this problem" - "I'll just use a JSON file for now as a database so anyone can easily modify it").
Your work will be focused more on clear communication and business impact than on lines of code you can write or cool tech you can use - although there is space to experiment with cool new tech if you can justify it -
Preferred Qualifications
You will work on different parts of the stack at various times. We expect you to understand where everything goes and why, and we expect you to add to the stack to make the development process more robust.
We build computer vision powered robots that automate and improve human-centric processes for companies.
Our first robot sorted Magic: The Gathering cards and we sold units to the biggest trading card companies in the North American market. As of Fall 2019 we sold that product line and pivoted into focusing solely on automation for the blossoming cannabis industry.
Our most recent system sorts biomass, and looks to improve the efficiencies of all downstream processes by removing undesirable waste material, in addition to allowing customers to sort by size, color, strain, and more.
We are currently working on automation for oil cartridge filling, and improving the efficiency of packaging processes in the cannabis industry by introducing novel robotics to join processes together.
