The posting

  • Identify and implement process improvements that enhance safety, accuracy, and efficiency across the inventory lifecycle.

  • 2+ years of experience in inventory, logistics, or warehouse operations within manufacturing, aerospace, or defense environments.
  • Proven ability to work with inventory management systems (ERP/MRP) and maintainaccurate records.
  • Forklift certification or ability to become certified upon hire.
  • Basic proficiency in Windows and Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, Teams).
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational discipline in a fast-moving production environment.
  • Capable of lifting up to 50 lbs, standing for long periods, and working extended hours or weekends when needed.
  • Demonstrated commitment to safety, quality, and continuous improvement.

Preferred Skills and Experience

  • Experience supporting engineering development, R&D, or prototype build programs.
  • Familiarity with aerospace material handling, including ESD, cleanroom, and hazardous material protocols.
  • Knowledge of tooling and fixturing logistics for prototype or production builds.
  • Experience with shipping logistics, import/export compliance, and freight coordination.
  • Proficiency with inventory management or ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, or similar).
  • Demonstrated success in implementing 5S or lean warehouse practices.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to interface across engineering, procurement, and production teams.

Physical Requirements:

  • Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer.
  • Frequent walking through office, manufacturing, and test facility environments.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
