Senior Manager of Electrical Engineering
Our Company
Miso Robotics is transforming the restaurant industry, and making food workers’ lives better. Our signature product is an AI-powered kitchen robot named Flippy which automates the dangerous operation of a restaurant’s fry station and cooks all sorts of fried items. Flippy is powered by a sophisticated AI platform driven by our proprietary and patented technologies.
Miso is a well known first-mover in kitchen automation, AI, and robotics. The company has raised over $125 million from equity crowdfunding, which we believe makes it THE most successful crowdfunding story in history. It has successfully piloted its products with the most prominent global brands in food, and now it’s time for the company to scale.
The company recently added a new CEO and other senior leaders, including a new CTO – all of whom hold decades of experience operating growth companies. Our CEO has a track record of successful exits, and we recently accepted a strategic investment and partnership from Ecolab (NYSE: ECL), a $70 billion public company which, as the global leader in sales of cleaning solutions to restaurants, truly knows how to operate at scale. Our new leadership team is evolving the company’s culture from early stage to growth stage with new processes and disciplines, and is supported by a board that includes the former President and CTO of OpenTable.
With Ecolab’s support, we are building a world-class team, and are looking for more exceptional people to join us.
