About the role

  • This role is for a Logistics & Inventory Manager who thrives on bringing order, speed, and reliability to a fast-moving factory, equally comfortable designing systems from first principles and running them hands-on on the floor.
  • You will stand up materials operations from scratch, making core decisions across stocking strategy, receiving and shipping workflows, ERP implementation, and inventory accuracy.

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end inventory management: accuracy, cycle counts, stocking strategy, min/max levels, and reconciliation across the factory
  • Manage all receiving operations: inspection, documentation, putaway, and discrepancy resolution with suppliers
  • Manage all shipping operations: outbound logistics, carrier coordination, packaging standards, and on-time fulfillment
  • Build inventory, receiving, and shipping processes from scratch, defining workflows, layouts, labeling, and standard operating procedures
  • Implement and administer the ERP system for materials and inventory: item master, BOMs, transactions, and reporting
  • Establish and track KPIs (inventory accuracy, on-time receiving/shipping, stockouts, cycle time) and drive continuous improvement
  • Hire, train, and lead the materials and warehouse team as the operation scales
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with procurement, production, and engineering to align material flow with build schedules and demand
  • Proven ability to build inventory, receiving, and shipping operations from the ground up (greenfield, startup, or new-facility environment)

Requirements

  • 7+ years in materials, inventory, or logistics operations, including experience standing up new processes or facilities, and 2+ years leading a team
  • Hands-on ERP experience implementing, configuring, and/or administering an ERP/MRP system for inventory and materials management
  • Experience selecting and rolling out an ERP system, not just operating an existing one
  • Familiarity with lean / 5S, Kanban, Six Sigma, or similar continuous-improvement methodologies
  • Experience scaling materials operations from low-rate to high-volume production
