Operations Manager / Founders Associate at Jack&Jill Club

Join an elite robotics team led by a Magic Pony co-founder as their first operations hire. This isn't a standard ops role; you'll be building the company's 'central brain' using AI tools to automate everything from logistics to finance while deploying robots into the real world. If you're a proactive problem-solver with 1-4 years of experience in startups or consulting, and you're ready to move from high-level strategy to 4am on-site deployments, this is your chance to shape the future of manual labour automation alongside veterans from Amazon and DeepMind.

Working directly with the C-suite, you will automate business systems using AI, manage robot logistics, and build the company's operational infrastructure from scratch in a high-stakes, rapidly scaling environment.
