Supply Chain / Operations Lead at Opulo, Inc

Job DescriptionJob DescriptionWhat we're buildingOur vision is to make it easy and accessible to manufacture a product. We're starting with a desktop Pick and Place machine, used to assemble electronic components onto circuit boards.Existing Pick and Place machines are expensive and can require high-pressure air and three phase power. Some only accept job files on a floppy disk. Traditionally, Pick and Place machines have only been used by large companies with factory space, so that's how they're designed.But they don't need to be this way. Our machines facilitate mid-scale manufacturing, where you make your product at a moderate scale before making the risky and expensive jump to a factory contract. With our hardware, anyone can do a production run of their product in-house.What we're looking forWe're looking for someone that is excited by our vision, has experience shipping hardware, and is ready to wear a lot of hats.
