Protecting the world’s most important hardware. Backed by CRV.
About the role
We have a growing building full of labs, chemicals, prototypes, and inventory, plus a steady flow of hardware going out to industrial sites and datacenters and sometimes coming back. Today, engineers handle the building, the doors, and the shipping in between their real jobs. We need an operator to own the physical side of the company: the facility, its security and safety, and everything that moves in and out of it. You will build these systems from scratch and keep them a step ahead of our growth. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 6+ years in facilities, physical operations, or logistics, with at least 2 years owning a site or function end to end, not just executing within one
- Hands-on experience running a facility with labs, manufacturing, or warehouse space: build-outs, maintenance, vendors, and landlord relationships
- Experience owning physical security programs: access control, cameras, alarms, visitor policy, and incident response
- Working knowledge of EHS and OSHA requirements, including chemical handling and hazardous materials
- Experience moving physical product: receiving, inventory control, shipping, and carrier/freight management
- You have built ops from scratch, or rebuilt broken ones, in a lean or fast-growing environment
More about this role
Omen is miniaturizing lab-grade spectroscopy into field-deployable embedded sensors. Our systems deliver PPM-level trace analysis on the fluids inside industrial machines and datacenters. That lets us catch wear trends like bearing failures or coolant contamination in real time, weeks to months before a catastrophic failure.
Our team is a tightly knit group of ~20 builders, dropouts, and industry veterans. We don't build things that are good enough; we build things that are 100x better.
- Omen Scout: for closed-loop hydraulic and lubricating oils.
- Omen Sentry: for direct-to-chip liquid cooling loops (typically water/glycol mixtures).
