Operations Specialist

Tropic Square is a deep-tech company. Our belief led to the creation of TROPIC01, a secure chip with a revolutionary, transparent implementation.

While our engineering team pushes the boundaries of transparent hardware, we need a strong operational backbone behind it. As an Operations Specialist, reporting directly to the Head of Operations, you’ll keep our physical logistics, stock management and internal operations accurate and efficient — from international chip shipments to team travel.

To achieve ambitious goals with a lean, highly focused team, we rely heavily on AI tools and automation to remove busywork and focus on high-value operational work. We’re looking for someone meticulous, proactive, and comfortable using AI to make operations run better.

If precision, ownership, and smart automation sound like your kind of work, keep reading.

👉 What You'll Do

• ERP & AI-Driven Administration: You’ll own the operational data in our ERP system. This is not just manual data entry — you’ll use AI tools and automation to streamline inputs and outputs, process shipping paperwork more efficiently, and maintain accurate digital records. Your goal is to make our ERP a perfectly accurate reflection of our physical reality

• Precision Warehouse Keeping: Take complete ownership of our physical inventory of high-value semiconductor components and development boards. This includes actively setting and auditing stock levels, designing a well-organized storage system, and ensuring hardware is stored safely and logically so the engineering team can quickly find what they need

• Global Shipping & Logistics: Manage the complete end-to-end shipping lifecycle. You’ll pull stock from the warehouse, securely package sensitive electronic items, source and book the most efficient forwarders, and handle follow-up communication and customs documentation with our international customers and partners

• Travel Coordination: Manage flight bookings and accommodation based on internal team requests, ensuring our engineers and founders can get to critical meetings and conferences without logistical friction

💪 Who You Are

There’s no single “perfect background” for this role, but what matters is how you think and work. Here’s the profile we have in mind:

• An AI-Empowered Operator: You don’t tolerate repetitive manual tasks. When faced with a mountain of paperwork or a complex scheduling email, your first instinct is to use AI tools (such as Gemini, Claude, or ERP automation) to draft responses, extract data, and speed up the process

• Independent & Meticulous: You have strong attention to detail and a strict sense of order. You do not let inventory discrepancies, missing customs invoices, or logistical details slip through the cracks

• Technically Minded: You don’t need a specific university degree, but you have the attitude and willingness to learn the technical vocabulary and context needed to safely handle the hardware and electronic components we build

• Clear Communicator: You have communicative Czech and at least an intermediate level of English (B1/B2), allowing you to coordinate comfortably with international shipping forwarders and our internal team

What will help you ramp up faster:

• Hands-on experience working with modern ERP systems and a track record of using AI/automation to optimize daily workflows

• Knowledge of semiconductors or familiarity with electronic components

• Familiarity with global hardware shipping logistics, customs procedures

🤝 Why Join Us

• The Team: Work alongside the founders behind Trezor and a world-class engineering team pushing the boundaries of transparent hardware

• Impact: Hardware security underpins everything — from wallets to cars to critical infrastructure. This chip matters, and you will help ensure our operations can scale alongside our technology
