• Develop and maintain standard material handling processes including receiving, put-away, picking, kitting, replenishment, and shipping.
• Implement line-side material presentation strategies to support efficient production operations.
• Identify and eliminate inefficiencies in warehouse processes, picking methods, and internal logistics workflows.
• Apply Lean tools such as 5S, Kaizen, and value-stream mapping to warehouse and material handling operations.
• Collaborate with materials and planning teams to resolve inventory discrepancies, shortages, and replenishment delays.
• Support ERP/MRP system accuracy, including location control, part classification, and warehouse transactions.
• Analyze material demand patterns and storage requirements to improve stocking strategies and warehouse capacity planning.
• Evaluate and implement material handling equipment including racks, carts, pallet flow systems, conveyors, and kitting solutions.
• Develop efficient kitting and staging processes to support assembly operations.
• Improve pallet storage density and warehouse capacity utilization.
• Develop and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) for warehouse operations.
• Create visual standards, process documentation, and training materials for warehouse personnel.
• Standardize location management and labeling systems to improve material traceability.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related field
• AUTOCAD & VIZIO experience are required
• Experience in warehouse operations, logistics, or material handling engineering within a manufacturing environment, with 5-7 years of experience preferred
• Strong knowledge of inventory management, warehouse layout design, and material flow optimization
