You’ll build and run the physical operations layer of the company: how material comes in, how it gets tracked, how it reaches the engineer who needs it, and how finished robots get out the door and to a customer in one piece. Today that means inventing the system. Later it means running and scaling it.
This is a hands-on job. You’ll be on the floor, in the lab, and on the loading dock.
What you’ll do
Inventory and materials
•
Design and run our inventory system end to end — part numbering, bin and location scheme, receiving, put-away, cycle counts
•
Own inventory accuracy across labs, warehouses, and set the accuracy targets we hold ourselves to
•
Kit parts for robot builds and get them to the right bench at the right time
Maintain serial-number-level tracking and as-shipped configuration records for every unit
•
Handle cargo insurance and damage claims
•
Coordinate inbound and outbound with our Seoul office
What we’re looking for
•
3+ years in hardware lab operations, materials management, or logistics at a hardware, robotics, or capital equipment company
•
Direct experience with inbound and outbound logistics, including international shipments
•
You’ve built or meaningfully improved an inventory system, not just operated one someone else designed
•
Comfortable around engineering hardware — you can read a BOM, understand why a part revision matters, and handle prototypes without damaging them
•
High bar for organization and accuracy, and willing to hold other people to it
•
Able to lift 50 lbs and be on your feet for much of the day
Strong pluses
•
Current hazmat / dangerous goods certification for lithium batteries (49 CFR ground, IATA DGR air). If you don’t have it, we’ll certify you — but someone here needs it before our first unit ships.
•
Experience shipping capital equipment internationally: semiconductor tooling, medical imaging, industrial automation, or similar
