Production & Supply Chain Manager — Sunrise Robotics (via Remotesome)

About Sunrise Robotics

At Sunrise Robotics, we are dedicated to augmenting humanity through intelligent robotics. Our mission is to evolve the world of manufacturing by introducing intelligent, flexible robots that enhance human capabilities and existing machinery, ushering in the next era of production at higher quality, with less waste, and lower cost.

The role

As our Production & Supply Chain Manager, you are presented with a unique and exhilarating mission: take a complex, intelligent robotic system from prototype to scalable production while maintaining speed, quality, and flexibility. You will own the end-to-end process of manufacturing planning, supplier coordination, inventory control, and quality assurance, ensuring we deliver reliable robotic systems on time and at scale.

This is a hands-on, foundational role. You will work closely with engineering, deployment, and R&D teams to bring each robotic cell from design to delivery.

From managing suppliers and sourcing custom parts to setting up scalable production systems and inventory workflows, you will be instrumental in turning intent into execution.

You will also support the sourcing and qualification of R&D components, bringing forward alternate parts and new technologies to the engineering team. If you thrive in ambiguity, bring structure to complexity, and are excited to help scale a fast-moving robotics company, we want to hear from you.

What you’ll do

• Coordinate production schedules to align with deployment timelines and demand forecasts

• Own supplier relationships across mechanical, electrical, and custom parts

• Negotiate pricing, lead times, and contracts to ensure quality and cost targets

• Set up and manage inventory systems to track parts, usage, and replenishment

• Implement quality control processes across incoming parts and internal builds

• Work with engineering/R&D team to source and validate new and alternate components

• Liaise with the R&D team to introduce new parts, materials, and technologies for validation

• Support preparation and logistics for field deployments

• Create scalable systems and processes to support growth across multiple builds and customers

Who you are

• 8+ years experience in production, supply chain, or hardware operations

• Strong understanding of sourcing, manufacturing, and inventory management

• Experience working with complex hardware products in robotics, automation, or electronics

• Comfortable building processes from scratch in a fast-moving environment

• Hands-on and detail-oriented, with a bias toward action

• Clear communicator who collaborates well across engineering, deployment, and leadership teams

• Organised and capable of managing multiple vendors and priorities in parallel

Nice to have

• Experience in low-volume, high-mix production environments

• Experience managing supply chains for complex electromechanical systems or industrial machinery

• Exposure to PLM systems and lean manufacturing principles

• Familiarity with ISO 9001 or equivalent quality standards

• Understanding of international logistics, customs, or DDP
