Inventory Analyst

Job Overview
Medra builds Physical AI Scientists: robots and AI that run real biology experiments in our lab in San Francisco. As our lab grows, so does the stream of reagents, consumables and equipment coming through our doors. We’re looking for an organized, reliable Receiving & Inventory Associate to own the full process, from the moment a delivery arrives to the moment it’s logged, labeled and on the right shelf. Our scientists and robots depend on accurate inventory, and you’ll make sure that when the system says something is in stock, it really is.

This is a full-time, hourly (non-exempt), on-site role, Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm.

Responsibilities

• Receive incoming deliveries and check packing slips against open purchase orders.
• Flag damaged, missing or incorrect items and follow up with the procurement team.
• Scan, label and log items into our inventory system accurately and on time.
• Put items away in the correct shelves, fridges and freezers, including temperature-sensitive reagents.
• Keep the receiving and inventory areas clean, organized and free of clutter and cardboard.
• Support regular inventory counts and help resolve discrepancies.
• Restock commonly used lab supplies and flag low stock before it becomes a problem.
• Follow lab safety rules, including wearing the required PPE in lab spaces.

Requirements

• 1+ year of experience in receiving, warehouse, stockroom, shipping or similar work.
• Strong attention to detail. You notice when a part number or quantity doesn’t match.
• Comfortable using barcode scanners, spreadsheets and basic inventory software.
• Dependable and punctual. You’ll be a key part of daily lab operations.
• Able to lift up to [50] lbs and spend most of the day on your feet.
• Clear communicator who’s comfortable asking questions and flagging issues.

Nice to Have

• Experience in a lab, biotech, healthcare or other regulated environment.
• Familiarity with handling cold-chain or temperature-sensitive items.
