This is a hands-on role where you'll help keep our manufacturing operations running smoothly by making sure the right components and materials are available, accurately recorded and ready for production. You'll be working with a wide range of electronic components and materials used in our high-performance electronics, motors and control systems. As we continue to scale our manufacturing operations, you'll play an important role in maintaining an organised and efficient stockroom, supporting both our Engineering and Production teams. You will be working on: - Managing daily stockroom activities, including receiving, labelling, stocking and organising electronic components and materials. - Maintaining accurate inventory records, including stock movements, purchase orders, invoices and deliveries. - Preparing component reels and materials for SMT production, ensuring correct feeder numbers, part numbers and quantities. - Monitoring stock levels, identifying replenishment needs and resolving inventory discrepancies. - Picking, issuing and supplying components and materials to Engineering and Production teams. - Collaborating with team members to ensure components are available and ready for production. - Maintaining a clean, organised and efficient stockroom to support ongoing manufacturing operations. ## WHY HARGRAVE Named after Australian aviation pioneer Lawrence Hargrave, we are an Australian engineering company designing and manufacturing high-performance electronics, motors and control systems for demanding applications. Our work is mission-critical, technically challenging and used in environments where reliability matters. Our technology supports drones and military applications, where quality and attention to detail directly influence real-world performance. We're small enough for your work to have a direct impact, while scaling to deliver projects around the world. You'll work alongside our Engineering and Production teams, gaining exposure to specialised electronic components and advanced manufacturing processes. Less bureaucracy. More ownership, accountability and quality. As Hargrave grows, you'll have opportunities to learn, develop your skills and contribute to improving how we work. The ideal candidate would have: - Previous experience in stockroom, warehouse, inventory or manufacturing environments would be advantageous. - Strong organisational skills and attention to detail. - Basic computer skills and the ability to maintain accurate inventory records. - Ability to follow procedures and manage multiple tasks. - Good communication skills and willingness to work with different teams. - Ability to work independently and as part of a team. - A proactive attitude and willingness to learn. - Experience with electronic components, inventory management systems or SMT manufacturing would be highly regarded. ## About Hargrave Technologies ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Hargrave Technologies is a leading Australian developer of mission-critical power electronics solutions, specialising in electronic speed controllers (ESCs) for brushless electric motors used in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), defence, automotive, and space applications. - **Entity Type**: Private (Privately Held) — bootstrapped momentum with a single known grant - **Headquarters**: Sydney, New South Wales, Australia - **Founded**: 2015 (began life as Advanced Power Drives, later renamed Hargrave Technologies) - **Founders**: Not publicly disclosed ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Power electronics for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), defence, aerospace, automotive, and space - **Target customers**: B2B, focused on commercial and defence aerospace primes, tier-1 integrators, and UAS platform manufacturers - **Mission/purpose**: To beat the forces of gravity; to develop the smallest, lightest, highest-performance UAS power electronics that enable longer flight times, greater payloads, and faster, more agile missions ## Products & Services All products are designed and manufactured in Australia, NDAA-compliant, and support open standards (DroneCAN, ARINC 825, DShot, PWM).
