The ideal candidate is organized, safety-conscious, and experienced in shipping, receiving, inventory management, and logistics within a manufacturing environment. This individual thrives in a fast-paced setting and is committed to quality, compliance, and continuous improvement.

Duties

● Receive inbound deliveries: unload trucks, verify against POs and packing slips, inspect for damage, and document discrepancies

● Process receipts in our inventory system, tag assets, and route items to the right team, lab, or storage location the same day

● Deliver packages and equipment internally across floors and buildings, including sensitive and high-value hardware

● Pick, pack, and ship outbound: parcels, RMAs, inter-site transfers, and palletized freight

● Assist with cycle counts, inventory audits, and asset tracking accuracy

● Flag process gaps and help build the SOPs for a new function

What we are looking for:

● 1+ years in shipping, receiving, warehouse, mailroom, or logistics operations

● Experience with inventory or receiving software, or strong comfort learning new systems quickly

● Reliable, punctual, and detail-oriented. Receiving accuracy directly affects engineering timelines

● Able to prioritize on the fly when multiple urgent deliveries land at once

● Clear communicator, comfortable coordinating with engineers, facilities, and delivery drivers

● Forklift certification a plus, or willingness to get certified. We will pay for training

● Valid driver's license preferred for inter-site runs
