Facilities Operations Manager, Robotics

Scale AI is at the forefront of enabling machine learning for advanced robotics systems. We’re looking for a hands-on Collection Space / Workplace Manager to own and optimize our physical collection spaces while driving operational excellence in our on-site workflows.

You’ll lead a small team, manage inventory and layouts, coordinate vendors, and create systems that turn physical chaos into scalable, repeatable operations — all while supporting the delivery of high-quality datasets for robotics platforms.

You will:

• Plan, maintain, and evolve collection spaces and workflows
• Lead a small on-site team (3–6 team members) responsible for setup, teardown, and resets
• Manage inventory: tracking, storage, audits, and buy vs. dispose decisions
• Coordinate with vendors to support operations and space management
• Drive operational processes for data creation, quality, and delivery
• Improve processes and tools; run pilots, tests, and iterate on solutions
• Build reporting and feedback loops to inform leadership and cross-functional teams

Ideally you'd have:

• 3–5+ years in facilities, warehouse operations, workplace operations, supply chain, or related roles
• Experience managing inventory, vendors, and on-site teams
• Strong organizational instincts and ability to design scalable systems
• Experience improving processes and running pilots or experiments
• Hands-on, action-oriented mindset with a bias toward execution
• Familiarity with basic EHS practices in logistics or warehouse environments
• 5 days in office

Nice to haves:

• Undergraduate degree in Engineering, Economics, or analytics-heavy field; graduate degree preferred
• Experience with SQL, Python, or Mode Notepad scripting
• Consulting or supply chain/operations experience
• Prior experience mentoring or managing a team or have lead a project
