59d•$85,000 - $95,000•Onsite

About The Position

Revivn is a profitable and rapidly growing company that helps enterprises manage their technology through our end of life software platform. We take electronic recycling one step further by repurposing hardware that still has remaining life and providing it to people who lack dedicated computer access and make it more affordable for people who may not be able to purchase new technology. Working with companies like Instacart, Lyft, Qualtrics, X, Gensler, and Allbirds we are changing the way companies view used technology with a new model that focuses on repurposing instead of recycling. We’re seeking an organized, motivated, and hands-on operations leader to help oversee our Brooklyn facility. The Assistant Facility Operations Manager will support the Facility Operations Manager in ensuring all aspects of receiving, processing, and shipping run efficiently, safely, and profitably.

The team comprises IT Technicians (data wiping, functionality testing, grading, and repairs), inbound associates (receiving, sorting, serializing), and outbound associates (cleaning, photography, picking, packing, and shipping).
