This position collaborates closely with procurement, manufacturing, and leadership teams, making impactful recommendations supported by predictive analytics and smart automation.

  • Analyze inventory categories (raw materials, purchased components, WIP, finished goods) across all locations to identify demand patterns, usage trends, inventory aging, and potential stockouts.
  • Develop and implement modernization initiatives to optimize inventory, improve accuracy, reduce excess or obsolete stock, and maximize availability of high-performing inventory.
  • Leverage mathematical models, forecasting tools, and AI-driven analytics for inventory prediction and optimization.
  • Design, program, and maintain automation tools for routine reporting, exception alerts, and real-time dashboards, ensuring actionable information is available across the organization.
  • Integrate new technologies (such as predictive analytics and anomaly detection) to proactively manage inventory and reduce risk.
  • Partner with Sales, Customer Service, Production, Shipping, and Purchasing to ensure end-to-end accuracy and efficiency of inventory processes.
  • Lead or support annual physical inventory counts and develop SOPs and training materials for best practices in inventory management.
  • Prepare and deliver clear presentations and data-driven recommendations to leadership and cross-functional teams.
  • Continuously refined forecasting and reporting methodologies, keeping pace with industry’s best practices and digital transformation.
  • Maintain full authority over required inventory parameters within enterprise systems, including adjustment or removal of inventory levels as necessary.
  • Perform other duties as assigned to support organizational goals.
  • Associate’s degree in business management or equivalent required; bachelor’s degree in business, Computer Science, Data Analytics, Supply Chain, or related field strongly preferred.
  • 3–5 years in supply chain, manufacturing, or inventory management, ideally in a custom-engineered or high-technology environment.
  • Demonstrated competency in analytics, production planning, and inventory control.
  • Proficiency in one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, R) for data analysis, automation, and AI integration; willingness and aptitude to further develop technical skills highly valued.
  • Familiarity with ERP systems required; experience designing workflow automation or building predictive models a significant asset.
  • Advanced skills in Microsoft Office tools (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Visio) for reporting, visualization, and process documentation.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, including the ability to present complex data to diverse audiences.
  • Self-motivation, strong time management, and a proactive, growth-oriented mindset.
