Training: Develop and deliver training programs for staff on export compliance and internal trade policies. Agency Liaison: Serve as the primary contact for customs agents and regulatory authorities. Data-Driven Optimization: Utilize ERP/MRP systems and data analytics to forecast demand, track KPIs (OTIF, Lead Times, COGS), and identify potential disruptions before they impact the line. Logistics & Compliance: Oversee complex international shipping routes, customs compliance, and last-mile delivery for sensitive technical equipment. This position requires access to export-controlled information. Employment is contingent upon the applicant being a U.S. person as defined by 8 U.S.C. § 1324b(a)(3).
