Director of Cloud Engineering

About Us

Are you ready to build the future of supply chain? At Gather AI, we're not just creating software; we're pioneering a new era of warehouse intelligence. We've developed a groundbreaking, vision-powered platform that uses autonomous drones and existing equipment to capture real-time data, completely digitizing workflows that have historically been manual and error-prone. This means facilities operate smarter, safer, and more efficiently, ultimately redefining "on-time, in full" delivery. 

If you're looking for an opportunity to contribute to truly transformative technology and make a significant impact in a vital industry, Gather AI is the place for you. We're leading the charge in the rapidly evolving robotics industry, and we invite you to join us in reshaping the global supply chain, one intelligent warehouse at a time.

About the Team

Our engineering team builds and operates a rapidly scaling B2B SaaS platform at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, AI/ML-driven insights, and real-world operational systems. We partner closely across product, autonomy, ML, and customer-facing teams to deliver reliable, enterprise-grade solutions. As we expand globally, we are investing in strengthening our cloud architecture and growing our engineering presence in India.
