Job description

Build the Path Forward

At Path Robotics, we’re attacking a trillion dollar opportunity - doing things that have never been done before to support an industry hurting from a lack of skilled labor. Big, hard problems are what Path tackles every day and our people are our greatest asset to get that job done. Our intelligent, hardworking team of people do the impossible every single day, yet remain incredibly kind, humble, and always ready to support one another.

We are looking for a Facilities Associate to keep our office and warehouse spaces clean, stocked and running smoothly for employees and guests across multiple locations. This is a hands-on, highly visible role for someone who is proactive, dependable and detail-oriented, and who notices what needs attention before others do.

What You’ll Do

  • Keep break rooms, coffee bars, kitchenettes and conference rooms clean, organized and stocked with snacks, beverages and supplies
  • Clean and restock restrooms daily and maintain sanitation standards across office and warehouse-adjacent spaces, including air purifier upkeep
  • Track inventory of cleaning supplies, snacks, beverages and facility consumables, and coordinate with vendors to keep spaces stocked
  • Clean and reset desks and workstations for new hires and team moves
  • Set up, run and clean up company lunches, all-hands meetings and events for up to 150 people, including furniture, equipment, signage and catering areas
  • Respond to day-to-day issues such as spills, leaks and restroom outages, and escalate larger maintenance concerns
  • Handle small projects like hanging items, assembling furniture and moving equipment

Who You Are

  • Experience in facilities, janitorial, hospitality, workplace operations or a similar hands-on role preferred
  • High standards for cleanliness and strong attention to detail
  • Reliable, organized and proactive, with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently
  • Positive, service-oriented attitude
  • Comfortable working in an active warehouse and office environment
  • Nice to have: experience in a manufacturing or startup environment, basic handyman skills, or coordinating vendors and food service partners

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Daily free lunch to keep you fueled and connected with the team
  • Flexible PTO so you can take the time you need, when you need it
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 6 weeks fully paid parental leave, plus an additional 6–8 weeks for birthing parents (12–14 weeks total)
  • 401(k) retirement plan through Empower
  • Generous employee referral bonuses—help us grow our team!
