What to Expect:Nimble's Business Operations team is embedded in daily operations, supporting both near-term execution and long-term planning through financial analysis and broader business decision-making and strategy. The team is lean and dynamic, supporting all functions at Nimble: engineering and supply chain, manufacturing, fulfillment operations, service, construction, and sales.
A lot of that work now runs on tools we build ourselves, including capacity planning, customer forecasting, pricing, billing, reporting, candidate sourcing and launch tracking for new warehouses. We build them with AI coding agents like Claude Code, which lets a small team move quickly. This role is for someone who wants to do business operations work and also build the tools behind it.

- Build and maintain internal tools for capacity planning, customer forecasting, pricing, billing, candidate sourcing and KPI reporting
- Build Slack bots and assistants that answer questions using our warehouse, robot and financial data
- Support your tools after launch: fix issues, help users, and follow up on whether they're being used
- Help the rest of the team get more out of AI coding tools, including our shared Claude Code setup and documentation
- Define and monitor KPIs and keep the data behind them accurate
- Make sure anything that touches billing, customer or employee data, or production systems, has the right review and approvals
- Analyze data and bring recommendations to leadership
Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science preferred; Mathematics, Engineering or a related technical field also considered
- 1-3 years of experience in software engineering, data/analytics, solutions engineering, or a technical business operations role

- Strong written and verbal communication, including explaining technical topics to operations teams and executives
- Evidence of exceptional ability, especially in an ambiguous environment
