About the Role

As an Operations Specialist in San Diego, you'll keep our local EV inventory organized, charged, clean and ready to sell. You'll run the lot and its vehicle queues, keep inventory and key counts accurate, coordinate inbound and outbound shipments with carriers, and drive vehicles between lots, showrooms, service partners and chargers. It's a hands-on role for someone who is detail-oriented and dependable, who likes being on their feet, and who catches problems early in a fast-moving, high-volume operation.

What You'll Do

• Maintain organized vehicle queues across work-in-progress and finished inventory, making the best use of lot space
• Track the status and location of every unit to keep inventory flowing
• Inspect inventory regularly to keep it at sellable quality, and flag units that need reconditioning or escalation
• Maintain vehicle charge levels according to Ever's procedures
• Manage the key system to keep every key accounted for and matched to its vehicle
• Conduct regular lot audits and reconcile physical inventory against system records, escalating discrepancies promptly
• Wash, clean and touch up vehicles to keep them presentable and delivery-ready
• Prepare vehicles for customer deliveries, test drives and onsite display
• Manage inbound and outbound vehicle flow with carriers and shipping partners
• Check in and release vehicles, verifying condition, documenting accurately and resolving discrepancies
• Drive vehicles between lots, showrooms, third-party service partners and chargers
• Ensure every handoff meets compliance and quality standards

What You Bring

• Experience in vehicle logistics, fleet operations, auto reconditioning or a related field
• Comfortable with lot operations software, inventory tools or mobile tracking apps
• Strong attention to detail, with an eye for condition issues, documentation gaps and inventory discrepancies
• Spatial awareness to safely move vehicles and manage lot space in a fast-moving environment
• Able to stay accurate and maintain quality in a high-volume environment
• Clear, timely communication, raising issues early and keeping the right people informed
• Availability during high-volume periods, weekends and month-end close
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record

Preferred Experience

• Familiarity with EV charging infrastructure and vehicle readiness standards
• Experience with high-volume dealership, auction or reconditioning lot operations

Physical Requirements

• Stand, walk, bend, kneel, crouch and reach while working in and around vehicles for extended periods
• Safely enter, exit and drive vehicles for reconditioning, testing, moves and deliveries
• Work outdoors in varying weather conditions
• Occasionally lift, carry, push or pull up to 50 lbs, using equipment or help for heavier items
