About The Boring Company

The Boring Company builds safe, fast-to-dig, low-cost transportation, utility and freight tunnels — solving traffic with Loop, powered by the Prufrock tunnel boring machine. Backed by Sequoia.

About the role

The Boring Company was founded to solve the problem of soul-destroying traffic by creating an underground network of tunnels. Today, we are creating the technology to increase tunneling speed and decrease costs by a factor of 10 or more with the ultimate goal of making Hyperloop adoption viable and enabling rapid transit across densely populated regions.

What they're looking for

  • Owner of large scale production of a complex system in a fast paced environment
  • Subject matter expert on system function and manufacturing
  • Lead continuous improvements of system manufacturability by optimizing process, cost, quality, simplicity and efficiency
  • Solve complex problems via scrappy, and systematic solutions
  • Identify, implement and manage batch “production running” of assemblies, taking full responsibility for bulk purchasing and strategic outsourcing
  • Evaluate and engineer production flow, ensuring complete oversight and accountability for effective build processes
