Inventory/Logistics Specialist II

Charm Industrial•Fort Lupton, CO

2d•$25 - $35•Onsite

About The Position

We're looking for a hands-on, detail-driven Inventory Specialist to keep our hardware development activities running smoothly as we scale new pyrolysis and injection system designs from development to fabrication to final operational deployment. In this role, you'll be the connective tissue between our design engineering, procurement, and engineering technician teams, making sure the right parts are in the right place at the right time. From receiving and unpacking incoming hardware to kitting assemblies using bills of material (BOMs) and engineering drawings, you'll play a direct role in supporting fast-moving engineering development cycles and robust design-build-test iteration projects. This is a great fit for someone who takes pride in organization, isn't afraid to get their hands dirty, and is always thinking about how to do things better. This role will report to our Engineering Technical Program Manager based out of Fort Lupton, Colorado. Someone successful in this role will enjoy bringing new designs to life and helping to test and commission their new equipment. This person takes pride in delivering robust mechanical solutions that work in the real world, and loves stepping through the root cause analysis process when systems are not performing as intended. This person also takes an analytical approach to problem solving and is not afraid to step out of their comfort zone when tackling new problems. A great attitude in the face of difficult and fast-paced environments is a must!

Requirements

Experience in a manufacturing, hardware, or production environment, warehouse, kitting, receiving, material handing, or similar roles
Comfortable reading and interpreting BOMs and engineering drawings, including designs that are actively changing
