About Us

Headquartered in Seongnam, we're an AI startup building frontier products for global markets. Small team, zero tolerance for mediocrity, moving fast.


How We Work

Skill is the bare minimum. What sets us apart is what comes next.

Product is our north star. Where we're going, what we build, how we define success — all of it flows from the product. Not tech for tech's sake. End-to-end systems that run on a real customer floor and move real business KPIs. That's why we exist.

Technology is what makes the product possible. Making manufacturing and logistics fully autonomous is how we win. Engineering is the center of gravity — everything else exists to serve it.

People are what make the technology and the business real. That's why people come first. The people we hire don't draw lines around their scope or their title. They find the work, close the gaps, and see it through. Ambiguity is room to operate, not a reason to stall. Problems get solved by people who just execute.

We hire people who put the product ahead of ego, title, and turf. If changing their role, ownership, or team structure helps the product win, they change it. No politics. No empire-building. Just what makes the product win.

Speed, speed, speed. We ship, we learn, we ship again — faster than feels comfortable.



About the Role

We are looking for a Workplace Operations Lead to build and run the operational backbone of the company as we scale from a founding team into a multi-hundred-person organization. Office, procurement, assets, vendors, facilities, events — the systems that let engineers focus on engineering. When the workplace works, no one notices. When it breaks, everyone does. This is the role that makes sure it works.

This is not a coordinator role. You will own decisions — what to buy, who to contract, how the office runs, what the policies are. You will partner with external counsel, accountants, and vendors directly. What you set up in the first six months defines how the company operates for years.



Key Responsibilities

  • Run day-to-day operations of the headquarters: facilities, vendors, supplies, F&B, and shared spaces
  • Own procurement end-to-end — laptops, monitors, peripherals, furniture, R&D equipment, office supplies — from spec to delivery to lifecycle
  • Build and maintain the asset registry, vendor contracts, insurance, and lease records
  • Manage corporate cards, expense workflows, and procurement approvals; partner with finance on monthly close
  • Design and run onboarding logistics — workstation, accounts, welcome kit, day-one experience
  • Plan and execute internal events: monthly all-hands, quarterly offsites, team gatherings, visitor and investor hosting
  • Serve as primary point of contact for external partners across facilities, IT integrators, insurance, legal, and accounting
  • Write the playbooks — workplace policies, procurement standards, asset standards — so decisions survive headcount growth

Requirements

  • 4+ years across some combination of workplace operations, office management, procurement, general affairs, or executive assistant work — with hands-on experience in at least two of these
  • Track record of running operations at a company scaling past 50 people, or in a fast-growing environment with frequent change
  • Comfort with the procurement lifecycle — quotes, POs, invoicing, vendor selection, contract management
  • Working English proficiency for vendor and parent-company correspondence
  • Fluency with modern collaboration tools (Google Workspace, Slack, Notion or equivalent)


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience launching or relocating an office from zero — buildout, vendor selection, move-in
  • Background at a Series A–B startup, or a fast-growing tech or hardware company
  • Procurement experience beyond IT — R&D equipment, parts, lab supplies
  • ERP or procurement system fluency (Douzone, SAP, NetSuite, or similar)
  • Experience operating across a Korea–US dual-entity environment
