About Apkudo: Our Vision To meaningfully extend the useful life of connected devices while eliminating new e-waste. Apkudo enables companies that sell or manage connected devices to maximize value from resale, repair, and reuse while eliminating e-waste. Instead of relying on extensive labor and a patchwork of re-purposed systems, Apkudo provides a fully integrated solution to ensure that items such as mobile phones, tablets, watches, laptops, and wireless earphones move smoothly to the highest-value outcomes. Apkudo's Circular Industry Platform includes the full suite of decision-support and operating tools: automated testing and grading systems, device lifecycle management, and resale market integration. As a result, Apkudo customers always have the answer to the question, “What do I do with this device, right now?” The Fine Print: Occasional travel may be required (e.g. team meetings); while this is a remote role, the majority of our team operates in the Dallas Fort Worth, Texas area with remote team members globally. As such, you may need to accommodate virtual meetings during non-standard business hours. The physical requirements include prolonged periods sitting at a desk and working on a computer (though you can use the tech benefit to create whatever desk you'll work best at). We are an agile organization, and so the duties and description of this role (like every other at Apkudo) may change at any time as we adapt. This position is exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Note: Apkudo is an Equal Opportunity employer. We are committed to diversity and inclusivity and to creating a culture where everyone feels respected and connected, no matter the location of their work.
