The ideal candidate has experience operating in complex, fast-moving environments where they were responsible not only for execution, but also for designing the systems, workflows, and processes behind the operation.
The role will oversee international shipping, freight forwarding, customs coordination, export compliance, and logistics operations supporting highly regulated hardware programs and global customers.

  • Establish logistics infrastructure, documentation standards, SOPs, packaging procedures, and shipment workflows
  • Implement scalable operational processes and systems for shipping and trade compliance
  • Help define organizational structure and operational ownership across logistics functions
  • Partner cross-functionally to improve visibility, efficiency, and operational readiness
Risk Management & Issue Resolution
  • Identify and mitigate shipping, customs, compliance, and operational risks
  • Resolve shipment delays, customs holds, and transportation issues
  • Act as escalation point for critical logistics and trade-related problems
Qualifications
  • 10+ years of experience in logistics, global shipping, international trade, or export operations
  • Strong experience with international freight forwarding and customs processes
  • Working knowledge of ITAR, EAR, export controls, and trade compliance requirements

  • Exposure to ATA Carnet processes and temporary import/export workflows
  • Startup, scale-up, or high-growth operational experience strongly preferred
  • Licensed Export Compliance Officer certification or equivalent experience is a plus
What Makes This Opportunity Unique
This is an opportunity to build a global logistics function from the ground up inside a rapidly scaling advanced hardware environment.
The company is looking for someone who can create structure, processes, and operational rigor where little infrastructure currently exists. The right person will have significant ownership and influence across logistics strategy, trade compliance, operational scaling, and international execution.
The role is best suited for someone who enjoys building systems, solving complex operational problems, and operating close to hardware, manufacturing, and mission-critical delivery timelines.
Additional Information

  • Comprehensive healthcare coverage
  • 401(k) matching
