Job description

About fab2

The fab2 team can build anything. We design all the hardware and software needed to make chips and we make the fabs, tools, and components ourselves.

We're looking for exceptional, hands-on people who can iterate to the limits of what's possible.

Fab2 was founded by Sam Zeloof and Jim Keller. Sam is best known for making chips in his garage, and Jim has been a leader in the semiconductor industry for the past 40 years.

About the Team

The materials team owns the physical flow of material from the receiving dock to the production floor. We receive, store, count, kit, and deliver every part that goes into our components, tools, and fabs, and we keep the production floor supplied so builds never wait on material.

About the Role

The Inventory Specialist is a hands-on material handling and kitting role. You will receive incoming shipments, put material away, pull and stage kits against the build schedule, deliver parts to the floor, and transact every move in our ERP/MES so the system matches what is physically on the shelf. This is floor-level work: you will be on your feet, moving material, counting parts, and working directly with the technicians and engineers who consume it.

Responsibilities

• Receive incoming shipments, verify quantities and part numbers against packing slips and POs, and route material for inspection.
• Put material away in assigned locations and keep the stockroom, supermarkets, and lineside bins organized and labeled.
• Pull, stage, and deliver complete kits to production against the build schedule, and flag shortages before they stop a build.
• Transact receipts, moves, issues, and returns in our ERP/MES accurately and in real time.
• Perform cycle counts, research discrepancies, and correct quantities and locations.
• Replenish lineside and point-of-use inventory so technicians have what they need at the bench.
• Handle sensitive, cleanroom, and high-value components using the correct packaging, ESD, and material-handling practices.
• Track lot numbers, serial numbers, and part revisions on the material you touch.
• Pick, pack, and ship outgoing material, including transfers between our Austin and Lockhart sites.
• Operate forklifts, pallet jacks, carts, and lifts to move material safely.
• Keep the receiving dock, stockroom, and shipping areas clean, safe, and audit-ready.

Required Experience

• 1+ years in a stockroom, warehouse, receiving, shipping, or material-handling role.
• Comfortable reading part numbers, revisions, packing slips, and BOMs, and matching physical parts to paperwork.
• Careful, accurate, and consistent with counts, labels, and system transactions.
• Able to lift and move material and stay on your feet through a shift.
• Willing to learn our ERP/MES and follow standard work.

Nice-to-have

• Experience with an ERP, MRP, WMS, or barcode scanning system.
• Kitting experience against BOMs in a manufacturing environment.
• Forklift certification.
• Experience handling ESD-sensitive, cleanroom, or serialized components.
• Experience in semiconductor, aerospace, robotics, automotive, or other complex hardware manufacturing.
