Hardware Operations Support
We're growing our hardware operations and are looking for a practical, organised, and curious person to support the day-to-day running of our electronics, production, and operational workflows.
This is a hands-on role where you'll work across inventory, device preparation, distribution, repair, refurbishment, and production support. You'll gain experience in how a real hardware product is built, tested, shipped, maintained, and improved, while working closely with our engineering and operations teams.
Whether you've worked with electronics before or simply enjoy practical problem-solving and learning new skills, we'd love to hear from you.
Tasks
Electronics & Production Support
- Prepare, configure, and test devices and accessories for internal use, pilot deployments, and customer shipments
- Support production runs by kitting parts, and following test and assembly processes
- Carry out practical bench tasks such as basic assembly, functional checks, and light rework where appropriate
- Record build, test, and repair outcomes clearly so the wider team has accurate visibility
- Flag recurring faults, quality issues, or process gaps to engineering and operations teams
Inventory, Distribution & Operations
- Receive, organise, and book in incoming stock, parts, and accessories
- Maintain accurate inventory records and help with stock counts, stock movements, and low-stock alerts
- Pick, pack, and dispatch devices, spares, and accessories to customers and internal teams
- Support returns, reverse logistics, and refurbishment workflows
- Help keep the electronics lab, stock areas, and production spaces organised, safe, and efficient
