WHO WE ARE
Biofire Technologies is on a mission to give gun owners better tools for reducing preventable gun injuries and deaths, especially among children. We believe our technology, combined with a best-in-class customer experience, will define the future of firearms safety for the next generation. Our mission-driven approach has earned support from the firearm community, the tech world, and the media.
Biofire employees encompass a diverse range of talents, including world-class engineers who have designed and tested firearms, medical devices, robots, cars, satellites, rockets, and supersonic jets; expert technicians from aerospace, defense tech, special forces, and gunsmithing; and elite operators from high-tech, advanced manufacturing, and regulated industries. Whether building the product or powering the company behind it, every Biofire team member is united by an obsession with safety, reliability, and operational excellence.
OUR CULTURE
Reducing accidental firearm injuries and deaths requires original thinking and authentic collaboration, so we’re deeply invested in building a team and culture that can achieve our mission together. Team members enjoy autonomy and flexibility from day one, so expect to be immediately tasked with solving challenging problems and building new systems that work. We’ll hold you accountable for executing audacious goals, giving and receiving honest feedback, and helping your teammates succeed.
You’ll receive respect, kindness, and support from every direction while you figure out how to get it all done.
As a Senior Commodity Manager, Electronics at Biofire, you will build the electronics supply base that carries our product from low-rate initial production (LRIP) into full-rate production. You will own the electronics commodity strategy across PCB fabrication, PCB assembly (SMT/THT), and component sourcing for semiconductors, passives, connectors, and cable/harness assemblies.
That means qualifying suppliers, cutting cost out of the bill of materials, reducing single-source exposure, and putting commercial agreements in place that carry Biofire through its next phase of growth. We're looking for someone who combines real electronics manufacturing process knowledge with hands-on system-building skills, and who can influence engineering, quality, and production partners without direct authority. You'll help our supply chain team build procurement infrastructure essentially from scratch.
To succeed, you'll need to stand up a supplier qualification framework, a dual-sourcing roadmap, and formal commercial agreements within your first six months, all without interrupting current production supply. This is a role for someone who wants to take an electronics supply base that's still in LRIP and turn it into something qualified, cost-effective, and resilient enough to support Biofire's production ramp. If solving problems like this sounds exciting, we encourage you to apply.
Compensation
In addition to competitive pay, as a full-time employee at Biofire you are eligible for:
The compensation range for this role is $170,000 - $180,000/annual salary + stock options + benefits.
Pay offered may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package for this position may also include other elements dependent on the position offered. Details of participation in these benefit plans will be provided if an employee receives an offer of employment.
LOCATION
Colorado (Broomfield HQ) – Primarily on-site: This is a full-time, salaried role based in our dog-friendly, state-of-the-art headquarters located between Boulder and Denver. The team regularly engages in collaborative, in-person sessions at our vibrant office space, with flexibility to work from home as needed.
We expect you to bring your very best, and in return, we will provide the support necessary for you to excel. You’ll collaborate with colleagues you appreciate, respect, and find inspiration from, and have access to all the technical resources needed.
DIVERSITY & INCLUSION
We’re bringing innovation to a technological problem that has persisted for decades, so we depend on diverse, inclusive, and collaborative teams to break new ground and do great work. We welcome people from all qualified backgrounds, and we don’t discriminate based on race, religion, color, political affiliation, national origin, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability,
or other applicable legally protected characteristics.
