Genesis AI; San Francisco (CA); On-site; USD 65,000 - 90,000; Full time

Job summary

Genesis AI, based in San Francisco, seeks an inventory and kitting specialist to turn a pile of boxes into a functioning floor. You will run receiving and shipping, build and serialize kits, manage the props library, and ensure stations are stocked for new deployments.

You will also handle production inventory as the line starts, maintain records with asset tags and barcodes, and keep the stockroom organized and safe for daily operations.

Qualifications

• Three or more years in shipping, receiving, inventory or kitting in a hardware, lab, manufacturing or field-operations environment.
• You have run an inventory system, done cycle counts, and kept counts accurate under a fast pace; barcode or QR workflows are familiar.
• You have built kits to a bill of materials and shipped them to deadlines, including internationally, and you know what paperwork a customs broker will ask for.
• You are organized to the point that other people rely on it, and you notice when a count is off.
• You are comfortable with electronics and small devices: handling, basic power-on testing, labeling, packing them so they arrive working.
• You work well with operators, technicians and engineers, and you communicate clearly in English.
• Bonus: ERP or inventory software setup; forklift or pallet jack certification; experience supporting a robotics, R&D or production floor.

Responsibilities

• Receiving and shipping: incoming deliveries checked against the order, serial numbers captured, items put away and recorded the same day; outbound shipments to partner sites, customers, suppliers and our Paris office packed, documented and tracked, with the paperwork international shipments need.
• Kit building and serialization: assemble collection kits from components, test that each one powers on and pairs, serialize and label them, and keep the record of which kit is where and in what state.
• Inventory: kits, devices, spares, consumables, tools and fixtures in one system with locations, counts and minimums; cycle counts on a schedule; reorder before the floor runs out; returns and repairs to suppliers tracked to closure.
• Props and objects library: every object used in a task with an ID, a home location and a photo; checked out to stations and checked back in; new objects sourced, received and added when a task needs them; the library kept in sync with the task list.
• Station kitting: each station type has a bill of materials; you kit new stations from it, keep running stations stocked, and support moves and re-layouts.
• New sites and deployments: build the kit packages for partner sites and robot deployments to the checklist, ship them, and confirm receipt and setup with the site.
• Production inventory, as the line starts: receive and store production parts and sub-assemblies, kit them to the build schedule, and keep the production stockroom accurate.
• Records and systems: asset tags, barcodes or QR on everything that moves, the inventory system kept current, a weekly count of what is in stock, in use, in repair and in transit.
• Space: receiving, inventory, stockroom and staging areas organized and safe, with a place for everything.
