Job Description

Job Overview

We’re looking for an Inventory, Returns, and Administrative Specialist who thrives in a fast-moving, small-shop manufacturing environment and can keep complex inventory systems running like clockwork.

We’re a family-owned manufacturer of electronics, serving customers through white-label manufacturing, contract projects, direct-to-consumer channels, and retail sales. Our operations involve a wide variety of moving parts, both literally and figuratively, and we need someone who can bring order to it all.

The ideal candidate is detail-obsessed, proactive, and capable of managing inventory across multiple workflows : kitting operations, material transformations, vendor outsourcing, returns processing, and more. You’ll also handle basic resale tasks, maintain online listings, and keep our customers happy by processing returns accurately and efficiently.

If you enjoy creating systems, solving logistical puzzles, and working alongside a tight-knit, entrepreneurial team—this role is for you.
