The Vision: Building the Operating System for Product Creation

Since 2013, THE/STUDIO has been building the definitive operating system for product creation. We are combining modern SaaS technology with custom manufacturing to make producing physical goods as seamless, fast, and scalable as launching software.

We operate two core platforms: Customize Now (our best-in-class, on-demand manufacturing platform) and Source Anything (our new SaaS product that enables customers to seamlessly work with global factories beyond our own network).

We are a profitable, previously Silicon Valley-backed, fully remote company, and we are not just looking to improve manufacturing, we are looking for a visionary operator to help us truly revolutionize the global supply chain.

The Opportunity

Who You Are:

• The Tech-Enabled Operator: You have built your career at the intersection of complex physical operations (supply chain, manufacturing, or logistics) and modern technology/SaaS.

• A Systems Thinker: You don't just throw bodies at a problem. You solve bottlenecks with better software, better data, and better processes.

• Highly Analytical: You are incredibly fluent with data. You know how to extract insights, define complex KPIs, and use those metrics to drive organizational change.

• A Cross-Functional Powerhouse: You know how to speak the language of engineers, marketers, and factory managers, bringing diverse teams together to execute a unified vision.

• Experienced & Autonomous: You have 6+ years of operational leadership experience, specifically within high-growth startups, e-commerce platforms, or tech-forward supply chain companies. You thrive in a fast-paced, remote-first environment.
