Job Description

The Role

We’re hiring a Logistics Manager to own the movement of product—from factory to warehouse to customer. This role is about precision, foresight, and problem-solving. If missing shipments, surprise fees, or looming stockouts set off alarm bells (in a motivating way), you’ll thrive here.

You’ll serve as the connective tissue between suppliers, freight forwarders, warehouses, and Amazon—ensuring inventory flows smoothly, predictably, and cost-effectively as the business scales.

What You’ll Own

  • End-to-end logistics coordination (factory → port → warehouse → Amazon)
  • Management of freight forwarders, carriers, and shipping schedules
  • Oversight of FBA inbound shipments, including labeling, appointments, and compliance
  • Inventory forecasting in partnership with sales data to prevent stockouts or overstock
  • Tracking landed costs, duties, and all logistics-related expenses
  • Resolution of delays, discrepancies, and Amazon receiving issues
  • Maintenance of clean, accurate documentation (BOLs, invoices, customs documents)
  • Development and improvement of logistics SOPs to support growth and scale

What “Good” Looks Like

  • Inventory is in the right place at the right time
  • No fire drills caused by poor planning or lack of visibility
  • Amazon fees, penalties, and chargebacks are minimized
  • Leadership has clear, reliable insight into inventory levels and shipment timelines

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience in logistics, supply chain, or operations (Amazon experience strongly preferred)
  • Hands-on experience managing FBA inbound shipments
  • Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills
  • Experience working with freight forwarders and overseas suppliers
  • Highly organized, proactive, and calm under pressure

Nice to Have

  • Experience with international shipping (China, LATAM, or Europe)
  • Familiarity with inventory forecasting models
  • Experience supporting a fast-growing e-commerce business
