Textile Technician (1pm-10pm) at unspun
Are you fascinated by how things are made? Do you love working with complex machines and seeing tangible results of your work? If you're excited about hands-on innovation in sustainable manufacturing, we might have something special for you.
Why This Role Matters
We're building Vega™, a breakthrough 3D weaving system that turns yarn directly into garments in minutes. As part of our evening shift team, you'll be hands-on with the technology that's eliminating waste in the fashion industry, helping us achieve our mission of reducing global carbon emissions by 1%.
What Success Looks Like
Imagine Operating Advanced Machines That Are Creating The Future Of Manufacturing, Knowing Your Expertise Helps Bring New Products To Life. Your Impact Will Be Measured In
We're not just another manufacturing company - we're reinventing how things are made. Here's what makes us special:
We're relentless in pursuing our mission, intentional in our decisions, and fundamentally human in how we work together. We celebrate small wins, speak up to benefit many, and aren't afraid to make mistakes along the way.
Benefits
The salary range for this role is $68,000 - $75,000 USD annually (base hourly equivalent, plus overtime), plus 0.01% - 0.02% equity.
Benefits Include
We won't roll our eyes if your socks don't match. We get it. But then, if you spend those extra few minutes in the morning matching your socks and shirt, we get that too. Our workspaces are sometimes spotless and sometimes chaotic, and we celebrate messy exploration. We work through complex problems but generate simple and elegant solutions. We strive to look at things differently, and never do anything solely because "that's the way it's always been done."
We're a team of designers and engineers, industry-veterans and serial entrepreneurs, artists and developers. We're aspiring chess masters and climbers, bakers and photographers. Originally spun out of Stanford and the University of Colorado, we now call the SF Bay Area home, with strong ties to Hong Kong. We are looking for teammates who share our desire to work on ambitious problems and leave the world better than we found it.
unspun is an equal opportunity employer, and we are committed to being a diverse team that reflects a broad range of background, thought, and experience. We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, national origin, status as an individual with a disability, status as protected veteran, or any other legally protected characteristics. Women, minorities, and people from underrepresented backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply.
