Job Description

Our Company

MISO develops technology that elevates human lives in the commercial kitchen.

We’re engineering production-ready robotic systems that tightly integrate perception, real-time decision making, and electromechanical controls to automate the most dangerous, least desirable tasks in food preparation. That means building software that understands the physical world as it actually behaves, and hardware that can execute precisely in the face of chaos. Success is measured in uptime, throughput, and trust from our customers, not demos.

Our flagship platform, Flippy, is already operating in high-volume restaurant kitchens across seven states. Zippy, our Kitchen Intelligence software centralizes all operational data in our broader ecosystem, expanding the role of AI enabled autonomy in real-world operations. Backed by industry leaders, including Ecolab (NYSE: ECL), Miso combines the stability of a proven commercial product with the technical depth and ambition of a company passionately innovating to solve foundational problems in robotics and restaurant operations.

If you’re excited by hard constraints, real customers, and the challenge of making software and machines perform reliably where failure isn’t an option, you’ll find meaningful problems to work on here.

The Role 


As a Test Kitchen Associate, you will be a key member of the Systems and Test team, operating our robotics systems and keeping our test kitchen organized and presentable for demonstrations. You will learn to operate the systems exactly the way a restaurant employee does, and you will be directly responsible for operating our kitchen robots, loading them with food when needed, and maintaining the systems clean.  

This is a part-time position with an expected 20 hours per week.

Key Responsibilities

  • Set up and run the kitchen robots just like at a restaurant for cooking tests
  • Clean up the system and test kitchen area after the cooking tests
  • Explain to visitors how the system is operated
  • Provide feedback to the engineering team regarding the usability of the systems
  • Assist the engineering teams with project builds if needed
  • Manage the cleanliness of the testing lab space, as well as keeping it stocked with needed testing supplies
  • Communicate and coordinate cleanup with the cleaning crew
 

Qualifications

  • 1+ year of fast-food restaurant kitchen experience
  • Familiarity with touchscreen user interfaces (e.g., smartphones, tablets)
  • Experience in a customer-facing role
  • Willingness to learn and train on the job
  • Attention to detail
  • Eye for cleanliness
  • Ability to work well in small teams, and with people with different skill sets than your own
  • No previous robotics experience necessary
  • Must be able to work in person at our test kitchen in Pasadena, CA
  • Ability to lift 25lbs

Compensation 

$18-$22 per hour 

The stated compensation range reflects only the targeted base salary range for candidates residing in the Los Angeles Metro area and excludes additional earnings such as bonus and benefits. If your salary requirements fall outside of the range, we still encourage you to apply.

At Miso Robotics, we are committed to fostering an inclusive, diverse, and equitable workplace where every team member is valued and respected. We believe that diversity in our team drives innovation and creativity, which is why we strive to create a welcoming environment for everyone, regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age, or veteran status.
