Episode 2 Promo: How Vecna Robotics Keeps Automation Aligned with the Floor
The second episode of Robot vs. Wild features David Rabinovic, Vice President of Deployment at Vecna Robotics, and Josh Kivenko, Chief Marketing Officer, in a conversation about the ever-changing nature of warehouse environments and what it takes to keep automation aligned with reality.
Unlike manufacturing, where operations follow predictable cycles, warehouses are dynamic ecosystems—shifting every 15 minutes in response to human activity, delivery schedules, and inventory flow. Rabinovic explains how modern distribution centers require automation that behaves like a responsive system—constantly adapting to shifting priorities, dock schedules, and labor patterns.
The episode also touches on broader industry trends, including the growing pressure for faster delivery and the rise of rural warehouse construction near major metro areas—highlighting how geography and labor shortages are influencing fulfillment strategy.
It’s a look at why automation can’t be rigid—and why Vecna Robotics builds systems that flex with the flow of the warehouse.
