Supply Chain Manager Jobs

About The Position

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in low-volume manufacturing, with direct ownership of procurement, inventory, or material planning.
• Hands-on experience with ERP and MRP systems, including setting one up or significantly reconfiguring one for a growing operation.
• Strong understanding of inventory strategies and where each applies: lineside, just-in-time, kanban, min/max.
• High ownership, autonomy, and accountability. You build the process before someone tells you it's missing.
• Comfort working directly with engineers and technicians on the floor, not just at a desk.

Nice To Haves

• Experience at a manufacturing startup or in a prototyping environment where processes were still being established.
• Hands-on hardware experience and the ability to spot defects or quality issues before they turn into shortages.
• Experience standing up a new facility's material operations from scratch, not just running an existing one.
• Familiarity with export control requirements (ITAR/EAR) in a defense or aerospace supply chain.

Responsibilities

• Define and implement inventory practices for a new manufacturing facility, from receiving and put-away to cycle counting and lineside replenishment.
• Select, configure, and run the ERP/MRP system that tracks parts, BOMs, and stock levels as we move from low-volume builds to higher-rate production.
• Interface daily with engineers and technicians to triage shortages, expedite critical parts, and keep build schedules on track.
• Place and manage recurring purchase orders, negotiate with suppliers, and maintain stock levels that match real production needs.
• Own shipping and receiving operations, including inbound inspection and outbound logistics for finished units.
• Build the inventory strategy for the production floor, choosing where kanban, just-in-time, or min/max approaches make sense for a given part or process.
• Establish the reporting that gives engineering and leadership visibility into inventory accuracy, lead times, and material spend.

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Long-term equity incentive program with significant growth potential.
• Flexible PTO and paid holidays.
• Comprehensive medical, dental, vision insurance.
• 401k
• Lunch and snacks provided in office.
• Access to a unique work environment, blending technology, maritime, and defense.
