Operations Associate (Contract)
Location: Beaverton, OR
Nike does more than outfit the world’s best athletes. We are a place to explore potential, obliterate boundaries, and push out the edges of what can be. We’re looking for people who can grow, think, dream and create. We thrive in a culture that embraces diversity and rewards imagination. We seek achievers, leaders and visionaries. At Nike, it’s about bringing what you have to a challenging and constantly evolving game.

In support of that mission, we are currently seeking an Operation Associate to join a growing new business.
Our footwear e-commerce experiment is seeking an Operational Associate to be a “Swiss Army Knife” and support in all day-to-day operations. You will be a part of a scrappy and lean team, work closely with your fellow Operations Associates, the two founders, and our systems engineer.
