Aurelius Systems Operations Specialist at Aurelius Systems manages day-to-day operational work in the San Francisco lab and build floor. Responsibilities include shipping and receiving, inventory management, vendor coordination, and field support for test events.

Responsibilities

We need an Operations Specialist to keep our San Francisco lab and build floor running. You’ll work directly with our Head of Ops to handle the day-to-day operational work that keeps builds, test prep, and the team moving. This is a hands-on, floor-based role. You’re the person who notices what’s missing, fixes it fast, and keeps the environment organized and functional. That might mean receiving hardware, coordinating a vendor, restocking critical supplies, setting up for a test event, or helping the team stay ahead of blockers before they slow work down.
This is not a pure warehouse manager role and not a traditional logistics-manager job. We’re looking for someone who is practical, proactive, and comfortable doing whatever helps the team execute.
What You'll Own:
Shipping and receiving for hardware, equipment, and team supplies
Inventory of components, consumables, PPE, safety supplies, and general stock
Vendor coordination, repairs, purchasing follow-ups, and lab support
Field support for range days and test events, including setup, gear, and team needs
Lab and office operations support, including build floor readiness and general facilities coordination
Visitor and demo support for the SF lab

Required

2–5 years in operations, office operations, hardware support, receiving, inventory, procurement, military support roles, or a similar hands-on environment
Strong organizational skills, comfortable juggling multiple vendors, shipments, and timelines at once

Ability to carry, lift, or move 50 lbs in and around the warehouse and at the range as needed
Trustworthy, proactive, low-ego, bias to action
Comfortable with ambiguity in an early-stage company still figuring out its processes
Where you probably come from: You may have worked in operations at a hardware or manufacturing company, supported a lab or shop floor, handled inventory or procurement, served in a military support role, or been the person on a small team who just made things work.
Not a fit if: You're looking for an admin, logistics or scheduling role (that's our Business Operations Associate), you've never seen a pallet, or you need a written process for everything before you'll act.
