Podium Automation is an early-stage startup reimagining industrial control panel manufacturing through software-enabled design and automated fabrication. We’re building technology to create a new industrial supply chain and reduce lead times for critical electrical equipment from months to days. We have raised $5M+ to-date and are backed by a16z’s American Dynamism fund, SV Angel, and Banter Capital.

We are seeking an Assembly Technician I to join a nimble, fast-paced team at the front lines of our factory, building and testing industrial control panels.
