Job Summary
Purple is seeking an Amazon Supply Chain & Inventory Manager to own end-to-end Amazon marketplace inventory operations as we scale our presence on the platform. This role is directly accountable for FBA replenishment planning, demand forecasting, in-stock rate performance, and out-of-stock risk mitigation across Purple's mattress and pillow assortment. Reporting to the Director of Marketplaces with a strong dotted line to Logistics and Supply Chain, this person serves as the critical bridge between Purple's internal operations and Amazon's fulfilment network.
Job Description
Essential Duties & Responsibilities:
Amazon Inventory & Replenishment Management

• Own FBA replenishment planning end-to-end, including shipment creation, inbound routing, and fulfilment center placement, while monitoring daily in-stock rates by ASIN and proactively resolving out-of-stock risks before they impact sales.

• Manage Amazon storage limits, IPI score health, and stranded inventory to optimize FBA capacity and avoid long-term storage fees; determine and maintain appropriate safety stock levels by SKU based on lead times, sales velocity, and seasonal demand patterns.

• Evaluate FBA vs. FBM/Seller-Fulfilled Prime decisions for oversized and non-standard SKUs (critical for Purple's mattress catalog).

Required Skills, Education, Experience:
Demand Planning & Forecasting

• Build and maintain ASIN-level demand forecasts using Amazon sales data, seasonality trends, promotional calendars, and new product launch timelines.

• Translate Amazon demand signals into actionable replenishment and production requests for the internal supply chain and logistics teams.

Supply Chain Coordination (Dotted Line to Logistics & Supply Chain)

• Serve as the primary Amazon inventory liaison to Purple's Logistics and Supply Chain team - communicating reorder triggers and urgency levels proactively, escalating supply constraints before they become OOS events, and ensuring inbound lead times are accurately reflected in replenishment planning.

• Coordinate inbound shipment timelines from Purple's DCs or 3PLs to Amazon FCs and maintain and update lead time assumptions by SKU and route as supplier or logistics conditions change.

Reporting & Analytics

• Build and maintain dashboards tracking key Amazon inventory KPIs: in-stock rate, weeks of cover, restock lag, OOS frequency, and sell-through rate and provide weekly inventory health reporting.

• Manage FBA reimbursement of reconciliation for lost, damaged, or miscounted inventory.

• Identify systemic inventory risks and present data-backed recommendations to improve replenishment processes.

Voice of Customer & NCX Monitoring

• Monitor ASIN-level NCX scores and customer return reason data in Seller Central, identifying ASINs approaching Amazon's defect thresholds and escalating to eCommerce and Product teams before account health action is triggered.

• Distinguish preference/expectation-based return drivers from product defect signals, maintain a running NCX risk tracker, and include findings in weekly inventory health reporting to eCommerce and Supply Chain leadership.

Required Skills, Education, Experience:

• Bachelor's degree in supply chain management, Business, Operations, or a related field; equivalent work experience considered.

• 3-5 years of experience in Amazon Seller Central operations, eCommerce inventory management, or supply chain planning.

• Demonstrated experience managing FBA replenishment, restock limits, and IPI score optimization in a 3P Seller Central environment.

• Experience with oversized or bulky FBA categories (furniture, bedding, or similar) strongly preferred.

• Background working cross-functionally with logistics, warehousing, or 3PL teams to execute inventory plans.

• Experience building demand forecasts at the SKU or ASIN level using sales data and market signals

Skills & Competencies

• Deep fluency in Amazon Seller Central: shipment workflows, restock recommendations, inventory performance tools, and FBA fee structures

• Strong analytical skills; comfortable building and maintaining inventory models in Excel or Google Sheets. Experience with BI tools (Tableau, Looker, or similar) is a plus.

• Understanding safety stock and lead time modeling concepts, including how to account for variability in supplier and carrier performance.

• Ability to translate inventory data into clear, urgent, and actionable communication for cross-functional partners in supply chain and logistics.

• Familiarity with inventory planning tools (e.g., Inventory Lab, SPS Commerce, Cin7, NetSuite, or similar) is a plus.

• Detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable managing multiple SKUs and fulfillment scenarios simultaneously.

• Self-directed and proactive - this role requires owning problems and driving solutions without waiting to be asked.
