ChargeItSpot

Description
About the Company
ARC is a rapid-growth enterprise technology company. Since launching in late 2021 to serve frontline workers, ARC has become a category-defining device management solution and trusted partner to some of the world’s largest enterprises, including Walmart, lululemon, Gap, ShipBob, and several global leaders in supply chain and logistics. ARC was born out of ChargeItSpot, the consumer-facing tech company that pioneered phone charging solutions starting in 2012.
Through smart lockers integrated with proprietary software, ARC stores, secures, and charges the company-owned handheld devices (made by Zebra, Honeywell, and others) that frontline workers rely on every day for package scanning, inventory lookup, task management, mobile point of sale, and more.
Clients turn to ARC because managing and maintaining enterprise mobile devices post-purchase is harder than it looks. Devices go missing (~25% annually), stop working, or run out of power, costing payroll time, money, and productivity. ARC virtually eliminates these issues, ensuring devices are functional, charged, and accounted for – while improving productivity and experience for teams on the ground.
Market demand for ARC has been overwhelming. Device management has been a massive unmet need for decades, and ARC – backed by a decade of technical expertise and a homegrown patent portfolio – is uniquely positioned to solve it.
ARC’s Mission
Minimize Device Waste. Maximize Worker Productivity. Make Life Easier.
ARC’s Vision
Be the unrivaled leader in physical device management. With more than 25,000 ARC units deployed by 2030, ARC will simplify life for more than 1,000,000 workers every day.

About The Team
At ARC, we surround ourselves with independent thinkers who are detail-oriented, and customer-obsessed. Our clients have routinely called us “the most talented team they’ve ever worked with.” We value determination, resourcefulness, imagination, and follow-through. We want people who are ready to get things done.
Our focus is fierce, but it’s not all hard work. We take time to get to know each other through a daily game of Jeopardy, meals together, and nights out for karaoke. We operate a hybrid work model, with most team members working in the office a couple of days a week, and the rest remotely.

<li>Details matter. A lot.</li>
<li>Bias for action.</li>
<li>Customer obsession.</li>
<li>Diversity and authenticity.</li>
<li>No ego. Only outcome.</li>
<li>Think big.</li>
