About the Job

Via Separations is a Boston-area startup dedicated to enabling process efficiency and intensification for the industrial sector. In 2024, Via delivered its first commercial facility and changed the narrative around market-driven energy technologies that drive value for industrial customers.  At the intersection of engineering, society, and impact, our team is passionate about making a difference and building the technology and organization to do it.  We are a fast-paced, interdisciplinary team backed by leading venture capital firms, and we are looking to add talented, mission-driven people to our cohort. 

We are passionate about transformative impact, optimistic about scientific progress, and unafraid of hard problems. We believe that our people are our unfair advantage, and drive our mission forward. We embrace the diversity of our team for creative solutions and believe the best ideas come from the intersection of disciplines and perspectives. We want you to join us!

  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Engineering (mechanical, electrical, chemical), or related fields; or equivalent combination of education and work experience
  • 2-4 years of experience working in Supply Chain Operations, Purchasing, or Logistics, preferably within the manufacturing industry
  • Experience with supply chain strategies (e.g., global sourcing, inventory management, supplier consolidation, lead-time reduction, continuous improvements, KPI tracking, and contracting)
  • Strong organizational, problem-solving, analytical, and decision-making skills. Strong interpersonal skills to develop excellent working relationships at various levels across the organization and with external suppliers
  • Detail-oriented with strong clerical skills

  • Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Disability & Life Insurance
  • 401(k)
  • 12+ weeks of paid Family Leave
  • Paid Flex time off
  • Paid time off for Company holidays

Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they can perform every job description task. We are most interested in finding the best candidate for the job, and that candidate may come from a less traditional background. Via may consider an equivalent combination of knowledge, skills, education, and experience to meet minimum qualifications. If you are interested in applying, we encourage you to think broadly about your background and skill set for the role!
