Ecommerce & Merchandise Operations Coordinator
About Us
At States Made, we build custom merch stores that help candidates, causes, and communities bring their ideas to life. From graphic design to product fulfillment, we handle the full stack—so our clients can focus on what they do best. We’re a small, fast-moving team that values creativity, autonomy, and thoughtful problem-solving.
The Role
We’re looking for a timeline-driven, spreadsheet-loving, “keep the trains running” kind of person. This role lives at the center of e-commerce, merchandise production and project management.
You’ll manage the full life-cycle of merch stores: making sure every product gets launched, every order gets where it’s going, and every task is tracked and done. You are someone who finds joy in a clean spreadsheet, has been described as “insanely organized”, and can work cross-functionally to keep projects on a timeline.
