# Lab Operations Specialist

**Dexmate** · Fremont Office

Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/dexmate/282c792d-815a-4e2e-96ab-b034df2034a6

## About Dexmate

Building tomorrow's intelligence and automation

## About the role

#### The role

You'll build and run the physical operations layer of the company: how material comes in, how it gets tracked, how it reaches the engineer who needs it, and how finished robots get out the door and to a customer in one piece. Today that means inventing the system. Later it means running and scaling it.

This is a hands-on job. You'll be on the floor, in the lab, and on the loading dock.

#### What you'll do

**Inventory and materials**

- Design and run our inventory system end to end — part numbering, bin and location scheme, receiving, put-away, cycle counts

- Own inventory accuracy across labs, warehouses, and set the accuracy targets we hold ourselves to

- Kit parts for robot builds and get them to the right bench at the right time

- Manage consumables and reorder points: fasteners, cabling, adhesives, PPE, ESD supplies

- Track tools and lab equipment, including calibration schedules and preventative maintenance**Lab operations**

- Set and enforce lab organization standards — labeled storage, bench discipline, 5S, clean-as-you-go

- Own ESD compliance and lab safety practices

- Handle battery and hazmat storage in line with our lithium-ion safety requirements

- Support lab buildouts: new benches, test stations, equipment installs**Customer shipping**

- Own outbound robot shipments end to end, domestic and international

- Design and source crating and packaging — shock mounting, tip and impact indicators, reusable vs. one-way

- Manage freight forwarders and carriers; quote and book LTL, FTL, and air freight; select Incoterms

- Prepare export documentation: commercial invoices, packing lists, HS classification, certificates of origin

- Maintain serial-number-level tracking and as-shipped configuration records for every unit

- Handle cargo insurance and damage claims

- Coordinate inbound and outbound with our Seoul office

#### What we're looking for

- 3+ years in hardware lab operations, materials management, or logistics at a hardware, robotics, or capital equipment company

- Direct experience with inbound and outbound logistics, including international shipments

- You've built or meaningfully improved an inventory system, not just operated one someone else designed

- Comfortable around engineering hardware — you can read a BOM, understand why a part revision matters, and handle prototypes without damaging them

- High bar for organization and accuracy, and willing to hold other people to it

- Able to lift 50 lbs and be on your feet for much of the day

#### Strong pluses

- Current hazmat / dangerous goods certification for lithium batteries (49 CFR ground, IATA DGR air). If you don't have it, we'll certify you — but someone here needs it before our first unit ships.

- Experience shipping capital equipment internationally: semiconductor tooling, medical imaging, industrial automation, or similar

- Export compliance background — ECCN classification, restricted party screening, license determination

- Forklift certification

- Experience at a company that scaled from prototype builds to customer shipments
