Hours: Full-time On-Site

Location: Molg HQ in Dulles, VA (Northern Virginia)

Salary: $90-$110K, plus equity, and full healthcare benefits

OUR MISSION

To tackle the growing e-waste problem, Molg enables circular manufacturing with robotics and design. Its robotic microfactories can autonomously disassemble complex electronic products, and the team partners with leading manufacturers to design electronics with reuse in mind — ensuring one product’s end is another’s new beginning.

OriginMark™ is Molg’s open standard for device, component, and material traceability, facilitating detailed tracking from manufacturing through disassembly to remanufacturing. Designed to capture the lowest level of detail within assets and products, OriginMark™ records the relationships between components and establishes scalable assembly hierarchies. This enables users to compute valuable data — such as total materials, processes, or embodied carbon — across any scale, from individual products to global portfolios. By providing the transparency and data needed to optimize asset management, reuse, recycling, and recovery, OriginMark™ is essential to advancing Molg’s mission of enabling a circular economy.

IN THIS ROLE YOU WILL:

As the OriginMark Lead, you will drive the development and evolution of OriginMark™, Molg’s platform for device, component, and material traceability. You will oversee the creation of both the front-end application and back-end systems, ensuring the platform supports the needs of customers and stakeholders. Your responsibilities will include:

• Product Leadership: Define and prioritize the roadmap for OriginMark within the open-source community, ensuring alignment with Molg’s mission and customer requirements.

• End-to-End Development: Oversee the design and implementation of both standards documentation and front-end and back-end applications, ensuring seamless integration, user-friendly interfaces, and robust system performance.

• Collaboration with Engineering: Partner closely with software engineers to develop scalable and secure features for traceability and transparency across supply chains. Even better if you can do some of the development work yourself and lead by example.

• Supply Chain Integration: Drive solutions that enable detailed tracking of materials, components, and devices throughout their lifecycle, from manufacturing to disassembly to remanufacturing.

• Customer Engagement: Gather insights from stakeholders to refine the tool and ensure it delivers measurable value for diverse use cases.

WHO YOU ARE:

• An experienced product owner or manager, with a strong track record in driving software development projects from concept to execution.

• Skilled in both front-end and back-end application development processes, with a solid understanding of modern development frameworks and tools.

• Experienced in supply chain management, with a proven ability to bridge the gap between technology and operational efficiency.

• Familiar with manufacturing or lifecycle management (a plus) and motivated to develop solutions that enhance circularity and sustainability.

• A collaborative leader who thrives in a dynamic startup environment and is comfortable taking ownership in ambiguous situations.

• Passionate about traceability and transparency, and innovation.

WHO WE ARE:

We spend our days building robotic systems, developing complex assembly intelligence software, and designing the next generation of circular products for our customers. Given the importance of working hands-on with physical systems, we are a 100% in-person team collaboratively working in our industrial space in Dulles, VA, down the road from the largest data center market in the world. Our facility includes a variety of robots, CNC milling machines, 3D printers, and all the tools needed to build and test our products. It is important to us that anyone on our team that is interested in learning how to use our various pieces of equipment and machinery is taught and can gain the skills and appreciation for making physical things.

THINGS TO KNOW:

We’re a small collaborative team with big ambitions, and there’s a good amount of context-switching. We expect people to be autonomous and drive their own work to completion. We are a profitable business that is primarily funded from customer revenue, which means we are scrappy and looking to build a great sustainable company for years to come. As a growing company and startup, priorities may shift as customer or business requirements change. We strive to empower individuals with context and decision-making power to meet this need.
