The posting

At Orchard, we’re securing America’s food supply by building the AI Farmer that automates our nation’s farms. We are the industry leader, growing rapidly, and backed by more than $25 million from leading investors, including Quiet Capital, Shine Capital, and General Catalyst.

Every year, hundreds of billions of dollars in crop value are lost because critical farming decisions are made using incomplete and imprecise data. We’re building the technology to change that.

Our AI-powered camera systems mount to tractors and scan millions of trees, vines, and plants, capturing precise data on yield estimates, fruit size, crop health, disease, and more. We train edge vision AI models that analyze every plant and determine exactly what interventions and treatments it needs. That intelligence flows into FruitScope OS, our farm-management platform, where growers can understand their crops, make better decisions, and direct operations in the field.

Today, Orchard’s technology is trusted by some of our nation’s largest farms. They use our products to grow higher-quality crops while reducing chemical use and operating costs, helping them farm more profitably and sustainably than ever before.

Our Culture:

  • Unshakeable Resilience – Our customers feed millions of people, and our customers depend on us. We are ultra-hardworking, never give up, and we do whatever it takes.
  • Always Keep Moving – We move fast, waste no time, and have an extreme bias towards action. Progress compounds every day, and our impact is measured in decades.
  • Improve Everything – At 1% success, we save millions of pounds of food from going to waste. If we are 100% successful we will impact the lives of billions of people across the world.
  • Farmers First – Every team member spends at least a few days in the fields with our farmers each month.
  • No Job Beneath Us – We’re low ego, own every outcome, and are all working towards the same goal.

The Role:

We’re hiring a Hardware Assembly Technician to build and test the AI-powered camera systems that enable our product on the farm. You’ll take cameras from individual mechanical and electrical components to fully assembled, configured, and tested systems ready for deployment.

This is a hands-on role for someone who takes pride in precise, consistent work. You’ll follow detailed build procedures, install software on onboard computers, inspect and test finished hardware, and document what you find.

Working with Manufacturing Operations and Hardware Engineering, you’ll also help keep parts available and improve the instructions and processes behind every build, helping us scale our production as we grow and deploy more systems than ever before.

What You’ll Own

  • Build complete camera systems from start to finish
  • Configure onboard NVIDIA Jetson computers
  • Inspect, test, and QA assembled hardware
  • Maintain build records and document completed work
  • Follow procedures consistently and provide feedback to improve our processes
  • Keep builds supplied, tracking and inventorying parts used in assembly
  • Keep builds on schedule, maintaining an organized work area and follow-through

What We Look For

  • Hands-on experience assembling electronics or electromechanical products, with a track record of careful, reliable work.
  • Practical mechanical and electrical knowledge and familiarity with common assembly tools and safe working practices.
  • Ability to read mechanical drawings and follow detailed work instructions accurately.
  • Experience with basic hardware inspection, functional testing, and troubleshooting.
  • Comfort using computers to follow software installation steps, enter information accurately, and maintain build and test records.
  • Strong attention to detail: you spot problems, document them clearly, and ask questions when something does not match the instructions.
  • Organization and follow-through across builds, parts tracking, and supplier follow-ups.
  • Experience following and improving standard operating procedures.

Helpful experience: Linux, NVIDIA Jetson setup, component purchasing, and inventory tracking.

About the Opportunity

  • Full-time role, five days a week at our San Francisco office
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage with 100% of employee premiums covered.
  • Our team is close-knit and highly driven. You’ll take ownership of the quality and readiness of camera systems used by our farmers, with close collaboration across Manufacturing Operations and Hardware Engineering. You'll also have the opportunity to help improve assembly processes as Orchard’s hardware production scales.
  • We move fast, and sometimes this means staying late or working weekends.
  • We’re deeply motivated by the impact we’re making – every system we build and deploy means less food that goes to waste, and more people who are fed.
