Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is becoming increasingly common in the workplace. By 2025, intelligent automation systems are expected to replace more than 40% of service desk interactions.
This doesn’t mean jobs are being eliminated and humans are being replaced with robots. Rather, RPA is designed to enhance the workplace by eliminating menial tasks, simplifying processes, and countering the possibility of human error.
Many experts expect the industry to see significant growth over the next few years. In 2020, the industry’s market size was $1.29B, and this is predicted to grow to $7.64B by 2028.
Agtonomy is a company that works with established farming equipment manufacturers to turn tractors and agricultural machines into autonomous tools that can be controlled remotely by farmers. They aim to combat food and labor shortages in the farming industry by providing farmers with the tools to increase their productivity. While Augury uses RPA to perform diagnostics on machines to predict and prevent them from failure. Their product is key for companies looking to decrease machine downtime and increase productivity.
RPAs will continue to become increasingly common as they can be helpful to a wide variety of industries. If you want to build the future of robotics in the workplace, here are 5 RPA tech companies hiring now.

Security in the Skies: 5 High Altitude Balloon and Satellite Startups Hiring Now
Nearly nine decades after the Hindenburg disaster, some speculate we’re entering the Second Age of the Balloon. “As all these objects fall, a new space race is rising,” Vox (https://www.vox.com/world/2023/2/7/23588464/suspect-spy-china-balloon-sputnik-moment-space-race) proclaimed. Tens of thousands of balloons float into near-space every year, and the numbers rise every year. The National Weather Service alone launches around 60k high-flying balloons each year. The Pentagon spent nearly $4B over the past two years on its own high altitude balloons, according to Politico (https://www.politico.com/news/2022/07/05/u-s-militarys-newest-weapon-against-china-and-russia-hot-air-00043860). Why the interest in such old-school tech? “They’re cheap, easy to transport, can be fielded in large numbers and are payload agnostic,” industry expert George Howell wrote. Tucson, Arizona-based World View (https://spacenews.com/world-view-emphasizes-remote-sensing-as-it-prepares-to-go-public/), a stratospheric ballooning company, last month announced plans to go public via SPAC merger. The company develops a “stratollite” that provides high-res imagery for extended periods. (The company also offer space tourism.) Colorado-based Urban Sky (/company/urban-sky) is creating what it claims as the first ever reusable stratospheric balloon. Called “micro-balloons,” they’re the size of a VW bus and can hover in near space to collect data over urban areas. Company founder Jared Leidich (https://www.smithsonianmag.com/air-space-magazine/04_fm2017-alan-eustaces-jump-1-180961678/) has some chops in this arena, having designed the space suit used in the world record space dive in 2014 via a balloon at nearly 136k feet. Near Space Labs (/company/nearspacelabs) invites people to “step inside a new way of thinking about all things geospatial imaging (https://nearspacelabs.com/blog/).” The company's high-altitude balloons that carry a small, autonomous robot called Swifty to capture the world around them at 60k to 85k feet in the air. The company says it’s done zero carbon emissions and recently launched (https://www.zdnet.com/article/near-space-labs-provide-free-high-resolution-imagery-to-universities-nonprofits/) a program to make its high-resolution Earth imagery available to universities and nonprofits for free. Sounds fascinating, right? Luckily, with a new wave of space technology, comes a brand new, cutting-edge wave of jobs. Check out 5 top startups aiming skywards and hiring now.
