Matic is revolutionizing home robotics by building the world's first truly autonomous robots. We're on a mission to recapture the 2.5 trillion hours annually spent on home chores, worth $25 trillion in wasted economic value, with fully autonomous, useful, elegant, and affordable robots that families love.

Our first product, Matic, is a Wall-E-esque floor cleaning robot that families love and cannot fathom their lives without. We've built what amounts to "self-driving for homes" — precise 3D mapping, real-time SLAM, and semantic understanding that works reliably in real homes, all achieved through breakthrough spatial AI technology using only RGB cameras and neural networks with all processing on-device for complete privacy.

Privacy first
Our robots are also private by design, with all the computes on the edge device. We believe that families shouldn't have to jeopardize their privacy just to get some help with the constant drudgery of home chores.

Our approach
In 2017, we observed 200+ self-driving car startups and an equal number of industrial robotics startups, but the home robotics space had been dramatically overlooked. While AI is becoming ubiquitous, families are still stuck spending dozens of hours per week on repetitive household chores.

Just like consumers adopted cell phones, then PDAs, then iPods before adopting the iPhone to replace them all, we believe consumers will adopt single-purpose, elegant robots first before getting one-robot-to-rule-all-chores. Our goal is to continue automating household labor, shipping useful, affordable, privacy-first robots while building iteratively toward more complex capabilities over time.

Who we are
We are a consumer robotics product company solving real customer problems. We start with a problem, think of an elegant solution in the form of robots, and conduct necessary research to build products that just work. We believe families want solutions to their problems, and AI & robots enable us to solve them.

Who we are NOT
We are NOT a Robotics Foundation Model research lab, a humanoid builder, or a robotics software platform company. We build fully autonomous, useful, elegant, and affordable Wall-E-esque robotic products that kids, pets, and families love!

How we behave
Matic is a tight-knit and collaborative team, singularly focused on building products our customers will cherish. We're ultra-hardworking people committed to solving tough problems that save precious time and energy.

At Matic, we're eager to take risks and test convention. We love diving headfirst into hard problems — even if it means some failures along the way. We work smart, hard, and long (in that order), chasing innovation and human impact. We highly value individual ownership and take meticulous pride in the work we do, knowing our efforts affect both one another and our customers.

Those who value curiosity and learning and who don't shy away from hard problems thrive at Matic. If you are genuinely committed to innovation and improving the lives of others, we'd love to hear from you.

About the role

We're looking for a highly motivated and experienced Global Sourcing Manager to join
our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for sourcing electronics commodities, including but not limited to ICs, PCBAs, EMS/Contract manufacturing, Electronics, Cameras, SoC, and system sub-assemblies, for our organization globally. The ideal candidate should possess a strong understanding of commodity sourcing in an electronics manufacturing industry and have excellent communication and negotiation skills.

What you'll do:

• Develop and implement global sourcing strategies for electronics commodities (SoC, memory, MOSFETs, Diodes, resistors, capacitors, power management ICs, PCBAs etc) in alignment with business objectives.

• Manage and optimize the procurement process of multiple commodities, including supplier selection, contracting, and price negotiations.

• Build and maintain relationships with key suppliers, ensuring compliance with contractual obligations and identifying opportunities for improvement.

• Conduct supplier assessments and audits to evaluate supplier capabilities, quality systems, and overall performance.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering, quality, and manufacturing, to ensure sourcing decisions align with the company's overall goals and objectives.

• Monitor market trends and industry developments, leveraging this information to make strategic sourcing decisions.

• Work closely with supply chain partners to develop and implement inventory strategies that optimize cost and minimize
