• Participate in internal and external meetings to capture requirements and align on project deliverables.
• Contribute to RFQs and RFPs by preparing high-quality proposals for prospective merchants.
  
  

Qualifications:

• 2–5+ years of experience in fast-paced environments such as management consulting, 3PL logistics, or startups, with a focus on operations and cross-functional project delivery.
• Proven track record managing multiple initiatives from concept to execution in ambiguous, dynamic settings.
• Strong organizational and analytical skills with a proactive, detail-oriented approach.
• Excellent communication and presentation abilities, including experience creating executive-ready reports.
• Ability to work independently while influencing and motivating others across teams and geographies.
• Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain Management, Business, or a related discipline preferred.
  
  

Bonus Skills:

• Proficiency with Google Suite, Microsoft Suite, and data analysis tools; exposure to Shopify, NetSuite, SaaS, or BI platforms.
• Knowledge of warehouse and distribution processes, space planning, and continuous improvement methodologies.

• High-Impact Work: Drive strategic initiatives and see your work translate directly into operational improvements and scalable warehouse solutions.
• Hybrid Strategic & Hands-On Experience: Enjoy a unique mix of high-level planning and practical implementation, perfect for someone who thrives on variety.
• Cross-Functional Exposure: Partner with leaders across logistics, operations, and merchant success teams, gaining a deep understanding of the full business ecosystem.
