Inventory Specialist

Torrance, CA

What we’re building

Our vision is to electrify all waterborne vessels, starting with electric water sport boats.

Gas-powered boats dominate today’s marine industry not because they offer a great experience but because of a lack of better alternatives. Boaters have grown accustomed to vehicles that feel stuck in the 1980s—unreliable, expensive, loud, noxious, and difficult to own and operate. They are also harmful to the water and air they reside in.

By contrast, electric boats are superior in nearly every way. They are far more reliable, less costly to operate, quieter, quicker, and cleaner, with no fumes or pollutants. However, they have been held back by both the technology and the talent needed to make them truly competitive with gas alternatives. That is Arc’s opportunity.

Using modern aerospace and automotive-inspired techniques, we are developing our hulls, batteries, cooling systems, firmware, and software together to deliver the next generation of watercraft.

Who we’re looking for

We seek someone who is excited by our vision, eager for a challenge, and willing to learn on the job. We pride ourselves on transparency and operate in a lean, high-trust environment that encourages everyone to take ownership of their domain.

You will be a full-time member of our Supply Chain team and will work from our manufacturing facility in Los Angeles. As a startup, we operate in a fast-moving, dynamic environment that requires adaptability. That said, here are some responsibilities and qualifications that will remain relatively constant for this role.

Core responsibilities

  • Managing raw materials, parts, and hardware for factory operations, including receiving, storing, and issuing
  • Performing efficient picking to create kits of necessary parts, materials, and hardware, ensuring availability and accuracy
  • Verifying incoming materials for conformity and absence of damage
  • Monitoring shelf life storage and uphold rigorous material handling practices
  • Investigating and resolving discrepancies between inventory reports and physical inventory
  • Recording inventory activities in software, complete daily transactions, and link them to relevant work centers
  • Assisting leaders with inventory replenishment tasks

Basic qualifications

  • Clear written and verbal communication
  • Experience with computer software, including spreadsheets, email, and resource planning programs
  • Experience with manufacturing inventory and kitting processes
  • Ability to stand for four to six hours per day and lift up to 50 pounds

Bonus qualifications

  • High school degree or GED certification
  • Prior experience in a fast-paced manufacturing setting
  • Familiarity with operating forklifts or towing equipment
  • Comfortable maintaining a fast but sustainable pace
  • Enthusiasm for boating and clean energy

At Arc, we encourage diversity and welcome all qualified applicants, regardless of background, identity, or status. Even if you don’t meet every qualification, passion and aptitude make up for a lot, so don’t hesitate to reach out.

What we value

We value these five things above all else

  • Ownership over both your work and the company’s success
  • Empathy for colleagues and for customers
  • Humility in problem solving and collaboration
  • Pragmatism for navigating ambiguity quickly and sensibly
  • Inclusion of different backgrounds, opinions, cultures, etc.

Given that we work in a sometimes intense or stressful environment, it’s vital that our values align. We’d be happy to elaborate on any or all of these during the interview process

What you’ll get

  • Talented teammates who challenge you to grow
  • Exposure and input into a wide range of business activities
  • An hourly wage between $25 and $29.50
  • Semi-annual bonuses tied to impact
  • A meaningful equity stake
  • An opportunity to help shape industry-defining vehicles
  • The ability to drive positive environmental change through your work
  • Nearly free health insurance with 99 percent coverage and 401k access
  • Generous parental leave
  • Daily lunches at HQ, plenty of snacks, lots of swag, and more
  • Boat rides

Hope to hear from you soon

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
