Job description

Hours: Part-time (Weekday Evenings 6 -10pm)

Location: La Vergne, Tennessee 

Salary: $22 per hour


OUR MISSION

Tackle the fast growing e-waste problem by making electronics manufacturing circular. 


Molg builds robotics microfactories and software to autonomously assemble and disassemble complex electronic products like laptop PCs, servers, and battery packs. Working with some of the leading computer + server manufacturers as well as industrial companies like Stanley Black and Decker, we are building the circular manufacturing technology to recover existing in-market devices for reuse and recycling as well as helping develop the next generation of circular-focused devices at the design level. 


IN THIS ROLE YOU WILL:

Have a great opportunity to get practical hands-on experience working in a robotics and climate-focused company. This role is for an individual that is available to work on-site at a facility in La Vergne, TN.  Working with a talented cross-functional team of software, mechanical, electrical, and robotics engineers, you will be running, supervising, and documenting operations of Molg microfactories. As a Robot Operator, you will be responsible for:


  • Running, supervising, and documenting operations on Molg’s Microfactories across various automated demanufacturing processes.

  • Collecting data on process success, failures, and key areas of improvement.

  • Resetting systems and equipment. 

  • Collaborating with robotics engineers on developing better tests and systems.

  • Releasing features and improvements into production environments.


WHO YOU ARE:

  • Passionate and curious about robotics and manufacturing 

  • Detailed oriented and methodical in data collection and analysis

  • Ability to communicate effectively and efficiently both verbally and in writing

  • Consistent and reliable 


WHO WE ARE:


We spend our days building robotic systems, developing complex assembly intelligence software, and designing the next generation of circular products for our customers. 


While we are primarily funded by our work with Fortune 100 companies, we are also supported by amazing backers like Elemental Excelerator, Closed Loop Partners, and Techstars. 


THINGS TO KNOW:

  • We’re a small collaborative team with big ambitions, and there’s a good amount of context-switching. We expect people to be autonomous and drive their own work to completion.

  • We are a profitable business that is primarily funded from customer revenue, which means we are scrappy and looking to build a great sustainable company for years to come.

  • As a growing company and startup, priorities may shift as customer or business requirements change. We strive to empower individuals with context and decision-making power to meet this need.
