Are you the type of person who wants things done the right way? Do laziness and sloppy work bother you? Us too!
Our fulfillment team pays attention to the details. We want our customers to get exactly what they ordered in a timely manner.
This isn't a typical “warehouse” job for mindless drones with a barcode scanner, always running to get the next item then awaiting further instructions from the algorithm overlords. That might work for giant e-commerce companies, but we recognize the value of thoughtful people to ensure customer happiness.
We're a small team of 17 people total (5-6 in the warehouse), so personality matters. We want team players who like coming in, solving problems, and enjoy the company of their co-workers (who are all cool and interesting in one way or another).
What's the job like?
The primary responsibility of this position is to print shipping labels. You'll also be packing up some orders, double-checking the work of others, receiving inventory from our vendors, doing inventory counts, cleaning up around the warehouse, and communicating with our Customer Experience team via Slack.
We ship 250 - 400 orders per day. You'll pull up the order in ShipStation, enter the weight and dimensions of the box, compare rates between USPS and FedEx, and choose the best shipping option. You'll apply the label to the box, then put the box onto the correct cart (USPS, FedEx Ground, or FedEx Express). To be successful at this position, you'll need to be computer savvy and detail oriented. If you're not 100% comfortable with computers, this isn't the job for you.
As far as the order picking process, we pull the products from our shelves and carefully pack them into boxes. A lot of our products are glass, so we use bubblewrap to make sure they'll arrive at their destination in one piece.
We receive pallets of inventory from our vendors and check them against our order to make sure what we received matches up against what we ordered, then we put those items into the right bins. If an item gets put into the wrong bin, then it's likely that the wrong item will get shipped to the customer. No one likes it when that happens.
We also like a clean working environment, so we clean up around the warehouse. Sweeping, vacuuming, etc. Stray piece of paper on the floor? Pick it up. If your home is a mess, this isn't the job for you.
We work in a warehouse, so it can be hot in the summer and cold in the winter. On the plus side, we listen to music & podcasts while we work, we can dress how we like, and everyone gets their birthday off as a paid holiday.
What about COVID-19?
We only have essential staff on site in our warehouse during this time. All employees who can work from home are doing so. In addition, we've implemented the following safety procedures:
- Everyone is required to wear a mask (provided by us)
- We ask that people stay 6 feet apart (as much as possible)
- Warehouse garage doors are open
- Multiple fans throughout the building keep air moving
- We have 6 HEPA filters with hydroxyl generators that capture and kill viruses and bacteria in the offices and breakroom
Schedule & Location
We're hiring for our Wednesday - Saturday shift. During non-peak times, this is an 8 hour shift that begins at 9am. When we are busy (holidays, 4/20, etc.), it can be a 9-10 hour shift.
We're located in South Austin near Slaughter & S. 1st Street. This is a full time position and we need people who are reliable and arrive on time each day.
And yes, this shift is 4 days per week, so you'll have 3 day weekends. We have a second warehouse team that works Sunday - Wednesday. Since both teams are on-site on Wednesdays, that's when we have our team meetings.
Compensation
- $18.75 / hour (32-40 hours per week)
- Health, Dental, and Vision insurance
- Paid holidays including your birthday
- Paid sick days
- Paid vacation days
- Employee discount
