Job description
Strategic Network Expansion & CapEx Ownership: Capitalize and lead end-to-end launch strategies for new fulfillment centers (FCs) and major retrofits. You will own multi-million-dollar capital expenditure (CapEx) budgets, negotiate with external automation and general contractors, and ensure aggressive timelines match our hyper-growth trajectory.
Next-Gen Storage & Automation Architecture: Define the network-wide standards for storage capacity, vertical space utilization, and layout engineering. You will pioneer the integration of advanced automation (e.g., AS/RS, robotics, complex conveyor systems) to radically maximize density and throughput.
Data-Driven Operational Design: Lead complex layout overhauls utilizing advanced CAD/SketchUp modeling integrated with predictive data analytics. You will align physical footprint design with complex inventory health metrics, long-term velocity forecasts, and macroeconomic supply chain shifts.
Business Intelligence & Executive Governance: Establish robust engineering metrics, predictive throughput models, and centralized Power BI/SQL frameworks. You will synthesize complex operational data into actionable narratives for executive leadership to justify infrastructure investments.
Cross-Functional & Vendor Leadership: Act as the primary technical liaison between executive leadership, operations, tech teams, and tier-1 automation vendors. You will manage high-value vendor relationships, negotiate service-level agreements (SLAs), and foster cross-functional alignment to mitigate deployment risks.
Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related quantitative field.
Experience: 5+ years of progressive experience in industrial engineering, fulfillment network planning, or large-scale logistics program management.
Capital Project Portfolio: A proven track record of successfully scoping, budgeting, and deploying $5M+ greenfield or automation-heavy brownfield capital projects.
Technical Mastery: Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD/SketchUp for facility layout design, paired with expert-level data extraction and modeling capabilities (SQL, Power BI, Python, or discrete event simulation tools like FlexSim).
Leadership Impact: Demonstrated ability to influence executive stakeholders, manage high-performing project teams, and navigate complex, ambiguous cross-functional environments
