Description
Nimble is an AI robotics company building the autonomous supply chain to power fast, efficient and economical commerce. We’re training robot AGI to power a proprietary generalist supply chain superhumanoid, the first robot in the world capable of performing thousands of tasks across the supply chain. We’ve raised over $220M at over $1B valuation and formed a strategic alliance with FedEx to build a national network of autonomous warehouses capable of generating many billions in annual revenue. We are a hardcore and obsessed team of the world’s best engineers and operators. If you are obsessed with your craft, enjoy a high-intensity and fast moving high impact environment, are super high agency in getting hard things done and want to be part of building the world’s most legendary robotics company at the most pivotal moment in history, we want to work with you.
We are on a mission to empower and inspire mankind to accomplish legendary feats by inventing robots that liberate us from the menial. We will accomplish this by training robot AGI to invent and build the Autonomous Supply Chain – everything from the inside of factories and warehouses to your front door – powered by generalist superhumanoids.
Our founding team comes from the AI labs at Stanford and Carnegie Mellon and our board of directors include famed robotics and AI legends including Fei-Fei Li (Chief Scientist of AI at Google and Director of Stanford’s AI Lab), Marc Raibert (founder of Boston Dynamics), and Sebastian Thrun (founder of GoogleX, Waymo; Stanford Professor and considered the father of autonomous vehicles).
Let’s be legendary.

Compensation
About this role
Nimble Robotics is building autonomous warehouse systems in partnership with FedEx, and this role puts you on the operations floor managing their robot fleet in real time. As a Robot Support Associate, you'd monitor live systems for errors, respond quickly to hardware and software faults, perform triage to get stalled robots back online, and log detailed reports that feed into engineering's continuous improvement cycles. The work demands calm decision-making under pressure—you're the bridge between frontline operations and the engineering team, troubleshooting everything from sensor failures to pathing jams while keeping production moving.
The position requires at least a year in a similar technical operations environment—automated warehouses, manufacturing, or fleet monitoring. You'll need comfort with software dashboards and fleet management tools, solid troubleshooting instincts, and the ability to stay sharp during high-volume incidents. Familiarity with WMS systems, Google Suite, and OSHA regulations is expected. The physical demands are substantial: up to 12-hour shifts involving standing, walking, climbing to elevated heights with fall protection, and regularly lifting 20–40 pounds.
Based in Haslet, Texas, this is a full in-office role paying $25–$27 per hour. It's a hands-on position in a fast-moving environment where you'd be directly contributing to how Nimble's robots operate at scale.
