Job Summary

We are looking for a hands-on Supply Chain Project Manager to lead logistics and warehouse optimization projects within our manufacturing operations. Onsite at the manufacturing facility (not remote / hybrid). This role will drive internal material flow improvements from inbound receiving to final assembly and outbound shipping, while also enhancing external logistics coordination with suppliers for just-in-time deliveries and pull systems. This role is cross-functional and execution-oriented. While it has no direct reports, it requires strong coordination across engineering, planning, purchasing, production, and warehouse teams to lead end-to-end project execution. You'll also support standardization, layout planning, lean implementation, and improvement of internal logistics processes.

Job Description

This is an onsite role with a strong emphasis on factory execution. The ideal candidate combines lean logistics understanding with strong project management capability, thrives in a cross-functional environment, and delivers real results on the shop floor.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and optimize internal factory material flow, including receiving, storage, line-side delivery, and finished goods shipping
• Develop efficient warehouse and material handling layouts to support production operations
• Implement lean internal logistics systems (e.g., Kanban, Supermarkets, PFEP, pull-based replenishment)
• Support supplier logistics by establishing pull delivery systems, shipment frequency plans, and delivery visibility
• Drive cross-functional projects from concept to execution, aligning with planning, sourcing, and operations teams
• Analyze process performance using data; identify bottlenecks, propose solutions, and track results
• Support integration of barcode scanning, mobile / WMS technologies, and other automation within warehouse and material flows
• Document material handling standards and provide training to warehouse and production teams
• Utilize tools like AutoCAD or simulation software to model logistics flows (preferred)
• Collaborate on logistics-related system improvement efforts (Oracle or other ERP experience is a plus, but not required)
