About Us

eJam is a bootstrapped consumer products company that has built, scaled, and exited multiple brands — all without ever taking a dollar of outside capital. Our portfolio includes category leaders ranked at the top of Amazon, carried in major retailers nationwide, and sold across DTC, marketplaces, and every channel in between.

We’re not a startup hoping something works. We’re a team that has done it repeatedly — taken products from idea to category leader, landed them on retail shelves nationwide, and built real brands that consumers love. We operate like a holding company with the speed of a startup: small team, no bureaucracy, massive ownership.

This is the place where you’ll see the entire machine — sourcing, product development, packaging, manufacturing, compliance, marketing, marketplace strategy, retail — all under one roof. If you want to learn how consumer products actually get built and shipped at scale, there is no faster education than this.

The Role

We are looking for an organized and detail-oriented Retail Operations Coordinator to support our retail operations team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their career who wants to learn how products move from our warehouses to major retail partners.

You will help with retail item setup, purchase order tracking, data entry, packaging/labeling updates, and communication between teams and retail partners. If you enjoy working with details, staying organized, and supporting a busy operations team, we’d love to meet you!
