Facilities & Office Manager

# About Ultra Ultra builds industrial AI robots that are working in the real world today. Our robots automate mission-critical warehouse labor end-to-end, starting with e-commerce order packaging. We deploy fast, learn from real production data, and iterate aggressively. We already have a quickly growing number of revenue-generating robots operating in U.S. warehouses, and are now scaling towards thousands of deployments over the next few years. Our mission is simple: build the world's most useful and deployable robot. **WARNING:** Robotics is not for the faint of heart. There are no silver bullets here. It is tiresome, unglamorous, and at times brutal work.

We hope you join us. # About the Role We’re looking for someone to own Ultra’s physical workplace, from facilities and everyday office operations to the buildout and move into our new office.
