- Audit and validate data across systems (ERP, MRP, WMS, PLM) so that part masters, BOMs, lead times, costs and inventory records are accurate and consistent
- Model how material moves between warehouses, stocking locations and production sites to make flow, transit time and handling cost more efficient
- Find bottlenecks, redundant moves and capacity limits in the logistics network, and propose process improvements

- Solid understanding of inventory management, including min/max levels, reorder points, lead times and BOM structures
- Experience defining KPIs and building dashboards or scorecards that leadership uses to make decisions
- Strong attention to detail and a track record of finding and fixing data accuracy problems across systems
- Clear communication skills, with the ability to explain complex analysis to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Comfort working in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment with high ownership and little structure
