Role Description
As we scale, we are looking for a hands-on leader to own and elevate our entire operational engine, from sourcing to final customer delivery. You will directly impact customer satisfaction, delivery performance, and company growth by ensuring the right products are sourced, built, shipped, and delivered on time and without friction. If you thrive in building systems, improving processes, and leading teams, this role is for you.
What You'll Own
End-to-end customer delivery
- Own the full lifecycle: purchasing ? production ? logistics ? fulfillment ? delivery
- Ensure customers receive the right product, on time, every time
- Turn operational performance into a competitive advantage
Supply chain strategy
- Build and refine a supply chain that is cost-effective, reliable, and scalable
- Balance inventory, lead times, and demand to improve service levels
- Align operations tightly with sales forecasts and growth plans
Vendors & logistics

- Ensure compliance while minimizing delays and friction
- Make critical decisions on classifications, duties, and trade strategy
Lead a high-impact team

- Build accountability, ownership, and a strong customer-first mindset
- Elevate team performance as the company grows
Drive continuous improvement
- Identify inefficiencies and fix them
- Improve systems (ERP/MRP), processes, and visibility
- Reduce errors, shorten lead times, and improve customer outcomes
Why this role is different
- You're not just managing operations—you're owning the customer experience through operations
- You'll have real influence over how the business scales
- You'll work closely with leadership and have high visibility and impact
- You'll build systems that last—not just put out fires
