  • Ability to climb ladders and be on your feet for extended periods of time
  • Must be available and willing to work overtime when needed
  • Location :

  • We are located in Hawthorne, CA in a 35,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility featuring large open spaces for team collaboration, R&D, and production, as well as easy access to the 405, 105, and 110 freeways. Our facility is in the heart of Los Angeles' vibrant emerging tech ecosystem alongside many other high growth startups and enterprises.
  • What We Offer :

  • We have an inclusive and diverse culture that values collaboration, learning, and making deliberate data-driven decisions.
