Logistics Coordinator

The Logistics Coordinator is responsible for making the physical operations behind π run smoothly.

This person coordinates the many moving pieces required to get a location ready for data collection: props, transportation, moving services, setup logistics, and ongoing site needs. They also help improve the systems and workflows that allow us to operate across more locations with less manual coordination.

This is a highly operational role. The ideal person is organized, responsive, comfortable juggling multiple priorities, and good at building relationships with a wide range of people.

Workflow Improvement

- Identify unnecessary manual work and opportunities to simplify coordination.

- Create checklists, trackers, templates, and other lightweight systems.
