Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 545,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne. We are the world's first mesh energy infrastructure, uniting communities through resilient, sustainable, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.

Torus has raised over $267 million from investors like Magnetar, Mercado, ICONIQ and Origin Ventures. The investments are helping to accelerate deployment of modular power plants across utilities, data centers, and industrial sectors. This investor confidence reflects the strength of our team, technology as well as the scale of the problem we are solving.

At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

About the Role

As a Precision Material Handler, you will oversee the movement, staging, and transport prep of Torus's high-value assets, including multi-million dollar Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and precision power components. Operating in an environment where single items range in value from $1,000,000 to $10,000,000+, this role requires immaculate precision, spatial judgment, absolute safety adherence, and zero-defect execution.

• Pre-Move Assessment & Risk Mitigation: Conduct thorough Job Safety Analyses (JSAs), calculate centers of gravity, verify load weight distribution, and inspect floor/ground weight limits prior to initiating any asset movement.
• Zero-Defect Receiving & Condition Inspection: Conduct micro and macro incoming/outgoing visual and structural damage assessments on capital assets, verifying physical integrity, seal status, and compliance against technical specifications.
• Chain-of-Custody & Traceability: Maintain digital tracking, high-value asset serial number logging, and strict chain-of-custody records within ERP/WMS platforms for all material transfers and staging actions.
• Hazmat & High-Voltage Handling: Adhere to strict safety standards (DOT, UN 38.3, NFPA 855) for handling high-voltage systems and commercial-scale lithium-ion battery modules.
• Transport & Logistics Coordination: Oversee loading, tie-down, and securement procedures for heavy-haul freight carriers, lowboy trailers, and specialized transport teams to guarantee zero damage during transit.
• Equipment Maintenance & Safety Compliance: Manage daily inspections, maintenance logs, and load tests for specialized lifting gear, rigging straps, chains, spreader bars, and heavy material handling vehicles.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner directly with manufacturing, engineering, and field deployment leads to coordinate precise staging timelines for production lines and off-site customer installations.
• Other duties and projects as assigned.

Required Experience

• 5+ years of experience in high-value, specialized material handling, precision rigging, or heavy logistics (aerospace, defense, power utilities, or semiconductor manufacturing strongly preferred).
