Job Description

This is a 6-month contract position for maternity coverage. Full-time, remote work is an option.

Since our humble beginnings of selling absurdly soft t-shirts from a VW bus, we've been busy building a great brand, opening 39 (and counting!) stores, and making super soft clothing. This growth requires strong backend support, and our HQ team is expanding—this is where you come in.

We're seeking a Product Operations Associate to join our small but mighty Planning Team. The role involves managing our product manufacturing process, including purchase order placement and vendor management.

The ideal candidate has a knack for numbers and a passion for leveraging data to improve business operations. You should thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced startup environment and be eager to take on new challenges as we grow. Even while working remotely, you will be expected to make an immediate impact.

    • Driven to Build Something Great : We're on the cusp of something special. Embracing challenges and playing a key role in our growth is important.
    • An Authentic Brand Advocate : Know, like, and understand how to build and represent our brand authentically.
