Continuous Improvement Analyst

Agility’s commercially deployed humanoids operate alongside teams in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers—tackling physically demanding and repetitive tasks while enabling workers to focus on higher‑value work. With industry‑leading safety standards and years of proven deployment data, we're pioneering a new era of automation that enhances human potential. About the Role Agility Robotics is scaling its operations and doing it deliberately. As a Continuous Improvement Analyst, you will be embedded at the intersection of our Program Management Team and our Operations and Supply Chain functions, helping the business understand how work gets done today and what it needs to look like tomorrow. You will work closely with operations and supply chain teams to analyze processes, surface inefficiencies, and translate business needs into clear, actionable requirements. You will be a trusted partner to functional leaders who need someone who can come in, get up to speed quickly, and produce work that holds up. In the near term, this means mapping and improving how work happens today within our existing systems. As we transition off our current ERP in the months ahead, that work may also extend to translating improved processes into the new system. This role is a strong fit for someone with direct experience in operational environments who brings analytical rigor, sound judgment, and the ability to work independently once given a clear mandate. About the Work Own process improvement initiatives end-to-end using a structured, DMAIC style approach: define the problem and establish a quantitative baseline, identify root cause, implement the change, and measure results afterward to confirm the improvement is statistically real, not just anecdotally better, and sustained over time Gather and validate business requirements from stakeholders across operations and translate them into structured requirements, process maps, and documentation that program managers, technical teams, or leadership can act on with confidence. Build trackers and reports in Excel or Google Sheets to give teams a consistent view of performance. Partner with the BI team when something needs to become a governed dashboard or ongoing monitoring. Work with data from multiple systems including ERP platforms, operational databases, Jira and reporting tools to produce accurate, reliable analysis. Partner with program managers to support cross-functional initiatives, providing analytical grounding and requirements discipline to programs that need it. Document current‑state processes and help define future‑state workflows in a clear, repeatable format that functional teams can use and maintain. Pilot process changes on a subset of the workflow, validate results against the baseline, and coordinate full rollout once the improvement is confirmed. Help teams understand how system changes affect their day to day work and support adoption through documentation and communication. Support the upcoming ERP transition by translating improved processes into the new system and helping teams adopt new workflows through the cutover. Communicate findings and recommendations clearly to both working-level teams and senior stakeholders, adjusting depth and framing for the audience. About You Lean Six Sigma certification or equivalent experience. Comfortable using Lean tools (value stream mapping, waste reduction) to improve flow and efficiency and DMAIC discipline to reduce variability and prove with quantitative before/after metrics that a change actually worked and held 3+ years of hands on experience in operations, manufacturing or supply chain environments Experience with process mapping and collaboration tools (e.g., Visio, Lucidchart, Miro, or similar). You have direct experience working in or supporting operations, manufacturing, or supply chain environments and can establish credibility with functional partners quickly. Advanced proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets (pivot tables, lookups, basic formulas, Apps Script). You are a strong analytical thinker who moves from data to insight to recommendation without getting lost in the middle. You are thorough and precise in your work. Your documentation, requirements, and analysis are clear enough that someone else can act on them without having to come back with questions. You work well independently. You can take a clear mandate and run with it, managing your own time, priorities, and output without close oversight. You are a natural translator between business teams and technical or analytical work. You know how to ask the right questions, listen well, and capture what people actually need. Familiarity with project or task tracking tools (e.g., Planner, Project, Jira). You communicate clearly in writing and in person, and you adjust your style based on who you’re talking to. You are curious about how things work and not satisfied with surface-level answers. You dig until you understand the real problem.
