Overview:
This position supports manufacturing operations by investigating inventory discrepancies, material inaccuracies, and transactional breakdowns across the manufacturing floor and stockroom. The role functions as a “CSI-style” investigative resource—identifying what went wrong, why it happened, when it occurred, where the material is, and how to prevent it from happening again. This is a hands-on, analytical role requiring strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently in an unstructured environment. .

Key Responsibilities:
- Investigate and resolve inventory discrepancies across manufacturing and stockroom environments
- Support discrepancy investigations, including engineering change break-ins and material variances
- Interpret and validate Bills of Material (BOMs)
- Perform physical inventory counts, cycle counts, and special counts (both internal and customer-requested)
- Identify root causes of inventory inaccuracies and clearly document findings and corrective actions
- Work closely with cross-functional teams to prevent recurrence of issues
- Accurately document and communicate findings via email and written reports

Required Qualifications:
- Approximately 5 years of experience in inventory control, manufacturing support, materials, or related operations roles
- Manufacturing environment experience strongly preferred
- Experience with discrepancy investigations and root cause analysis
- Basic understanding of Bills of Material (BOMs)
- Inventory counting experience (cycle counts, physical inventories, special counts)
- ERP system experience required (Bond ERP preferred; SAP, Oracle, or similar acceptable)
- Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office
- Strong written and verbal communication skills

Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or genetic information.
