Role: Supply Chain Engineer
Location: San Diego, CA (On-site)
We are comma.ai. We’re building the Android of self-driving cars and already operate the second largest fleet after Tesla. We own our stack, from training state of the art machine learning models on our own infrastructure, to building the operating system, designing the hardware, and manufacturing it.
We don’t care where, or even if, you went to school. We don’t care if you have a traditional background. We’re looking for people who can independently contribute to shipping openpilot. As a Supply Chain Engineer, you’ll own comma’s end-to-end hardware supply chain—from vendor sourcing and cost negotiation to purchase orders, receiving, and inventory.
Responsibilities:
- Own the full hardware supply chain—from sourcing parts to stocking shelves
- Evaluate and negotiate with vendors for pricing, lead time, and quality
- Place and manage purchase orders, track deliveries, and follow up with vendors
- Solve problems—whether it’s a supply delay, a bad batch, or a parts mismatch
- Keep our inventory organized and accurate
Qualifications:
- Experience in supply chain, procurement, or manufacturing operations
- Strong negotiation and vendor relationship skills
- Familiarity with electronics manufacturing, and BOMs
Perks:
- Chef-prepared lunch and dinner
- On-site gym and yoga studio
- 24/7 access to the comma fleet of cars
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Flexible time off
We love a great GitHub, open source contributors, good projects, and competition winners. Can you solve our challenge? To apply, complete the ops or hardware challenge, then reach out to work@comma.ai.
