About Loombotic

Loombotic is bringing wire-harness manufacturing back to America, and automating a job still done almost entirely by hand. Harnesses are the nervous system of every robot, vehicle, and machine, and they stay slow and expensive for one reason: nobody automated them, so the work shipped overseas. We build our own instant-quoting software and our own machines to make harnesses here, and ship a custom one in about a week instead of 6 to 12. Teams building robotics, aerospace, and advanced thermal and data-center hardware rely on us to get custom cables in days, not months.

The role

This isn't a back-room warehouse job. You'll own the material flow that keeps the factory running: receiving parts, verifying shipments, maintaining inventory accuracy, preparing complete kits for harness jobs, staging materials for technicians and automated equipment, and catching shortages before they block production. Harness manufacturing is extremely materials-sensitive - one missing or mislabeled connector, terminal, seal, label, or piece of heat shrink can stop a job. Your job is to prevent that. You'll work closely with production, engineering, purchasing, and operations. The factory only moves fast if the material system is accurate.

What you'll do

• Receive inbound materials, components, tools, and supplies; verify deliveries against POs, packing slips, BOMs, and job requirements

• Inspect shipments for damage, shortages, wrong parts, or labeling issues

• Label, organize, and stock connectors, terminals, wire, seals, housings, heat shrink, labels, and consumables; maintain accurate bin locations, counts, and records

• Prepare complete job kits before production starts, verifying correct parts, quantities, revisions, and approved substitutions

• Stage materials for technicians, automated equipment, inspection, test, and shipment

• Identify shortages, discrepancies, and material risks early, and communicate job-readiness blockers clearly to production, purchasing, and engineering

• Support cycle counts, inventory audits, and variance investigations

• Handle vendor returns, damaged materials, and nonconforming parts with proper documentation

• Maintain receiving paperwork, packing slips, certifications, and material records

• Use our software systems to track inventory, kits, shortages, receipts, and job progress accurately

• Help build and improve our inventory, receiving, and kitting systems as we scale

You are

• Organized, detail-oriented, reliable, and precise under pressure

• Serious about accuracy: every part, every label, every bin, every kit

• Someone who takes ownership of the material flow and does the hands-on work - receiving, labeling, counting, stocking, kitting, staging

• A clear communicator who raises issues early and makes the shift better for everyone around them

• Low-ego and happy to do the unglamorous work that needs doing

• Always looking for ways to make the process better

Minimum qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent

• 1+ year in receiving, inventory, warehouse, manufacturing, kitting, or a similar hands-on operations role

• Strong attention to detail and organization, and the ability to prioritize across receiving, inventory, and production needs

• Able to follow detailed work instructions and use hand tools, labels, scanners, computers, and inventory systems

• Able to stand, walk, bend, reach, and move around a production floor for extended periods, and lift up to 50 lbs

• Comfortable working full-time on-site in Austin, TX

• Legally authorized to work in the U.S. (we're unable to sponsor visas for this role)

Nice to have

• 2+ years in inventory control, receiving, kitting, warehouse operations, or manufacturing materials

• Experience preparing kits for production jobs, and with small-parts inventory (reels, terminals, connectors, hardware, electronics components)

• Reading BOMs, drawings, work orders, POs, packing slips, and material requirements

• Kanban, cycle counting, ERP, inventory tracking, or warehouse management systems

• Forklift or pallet-jack experience

• Handling material certifications, vendor returns, and nonconforming-material documentation

• Background in wire harness, cable, electronics, aerospace, defense, automotive/EV, robotics, or industrial manufacturing

• Comfortable using AI tools or software to work faster and more accurately

What we care about

We care more about ownership and accuracy than fancy resumes. A great person in this role notices when a kit is missing a terminal before the technician does, catches the wrong connector before it reaches the floor, and always knows where parts are, whether the count is accurate, and what jobs are at risk. This role protects production from chaos - we want someone who takes pride in making the factory organized, accurate, and ready to move.

Compensation & benefits

• $24-$32/hour DOE, overtime eligible

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage

• Paid time off and company holidays

• Company-provided tools, PPE, and safety equipment

• Training and growth across inventory, production, quality, operations, and supply chain

• Clean, modern facility and hands-on work with automated harness production

• Access to our engineering lab and tools for approved personal projects - we like people who build things

How to apply

Apply with your resume and short answers to:

1. What experience do you have with receiving, inventory, warehouse operations, kitting, or manufacturing materials?

2. Have you prepared kits for production jobs? What types of parts or products?

3. What inventory, ERP, warehouse, labeling, or production-tracking systems have you used?

4. Tell us about a time you caught a material, inventory, or documentation issue before it caused a bigger problem.
