Job description

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.

As the 2nd Shift Materials Supervisor, you will create a strategic plan to optimize warehouse operations, create a standard set of metrics to monitor team performance, set goals for improving performance, and identify areas to reduce cost while maintaining quality. Hours will be 3pm-12pm Central.

This role supports Anduril's Rocket Motor Systems (RMS) site in McHenry, MS, a multi-building campus where the material set includes solid rocket motor propellants, oxidizers, energetic and ordnance items, and shelf-life-controlled chemicals. Storage, segregation, and movement of these materials is governed by explosives-safety siting, not just warehouse convenience, so the right person is comfortable owning a hazardous-material inventory as well as a conventional one.

The right person for this role has extensive supply chain knowledge, has developed SOPs and implemented them, has implemented or improved ERP/WMS, and has a track record of managing expensive and hazardous inventory. If you are someone who can operate autonomously to keep a warehouse team motivated and enjoys process improvement this may be the role for you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Develop and implement material management strategies, policies, and procedures to comply with regulations.
• Hiring & training talent who can manage material flow per Anduril guidelines.
• Develop processes that increase the efficiency (speed & elimination of waste) and effectiveness of Anduril materials management.
• Implement necessary systems that match Anduril Federal policies on management of government property & inventory management.
• Implement End-to-End material management measures, including FIFO adherence, material variances, cycle time optimization, scrap/obsolescence management, cycle/physical counting, and audits, etc., to ensure inventory accuracy and to mitigate stockouts or overstocking. This includes the development & improvement of critical metrics.
• Own the energetics and hazardous-material storage program across site buildings — magazine and igloo storage, hazard-division and compatibility-group segregation, net explosive weight (NEW) tracking against sited limits, and quantity-distance (Q-D) compliance for every storage location.
• Manage shelf-life-controlled inventory as a first-class discipline: expiration and removal-from-service dates on propellant binders, curatives, resins, epoxies, elastomers, and oxidizers; FEFO issue by lot; retest/extension coordination with Quality; and disposition of expired lots before they reach the floor.
• Control lot and serial traceability on energetic material from receipt through issue to the mix bay and motor build — including lot genealogy for propellant ingredients and the consumption records that tie a mix sheet back to the specific lots it drew from.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including procurement, production, manufacturing engineering, logistics, and quality, to aid in accurate demand forecasting, procurement planning, and timely delivery of materials.
• Collaborate with production planning and manufacturing teams to align material availability with production schedules, minimize disruptions, and meet customer demand on time.
• Coordinate inter-building material movement across the campus, including scheduled runs that stage energetic and chemical material to the operating buildings — accounting for transport limits, escort and personnel-limit rules, temperature-controlled handling, and the operating status of each energetics building on a given day.
• Partner with ESOH/Explosives Safety and Facilities on storage siting, licensed magazine capacity, and inventory changes that shift the site's NEW posture; support explosives-safety inspections and ATF/DoD compliance audits with accurate, on-demand inventory records.
• Analyze material usage trends, identify opportunities for process improvements, and implement lean practices to optimize material handling, storage, and distribution.
• Utilize ERP & WMS software systems and tools to track inventory, generate reports, and provide data-driven insights to support decision-making and optimize material-related processes. This includes maintaining accurate lot, expiration, and hazard attributes in the ERP so that shelf-life and segregation status is visible from the system rather than from a binder on the wall.
• Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, safety standards, and quality control protocols in all material management activities. For this site that includes DoD 6055.09-M, ATF 27 CFR Part 555, DOT 49 CFR hazardous-materials shipping, NFPA 495 and NFPA 30, OSHA 1910.109 / 1910.106 / 1910.1200 (HazCom), and EPA/state requirements for hazardous-waste accumulation and disposal.
• Maintain the MRB / quarantine and nonconforming-material program for hazardous and energetic items — physical segregation, aging visibility on held material, and timely disposition so quarantined energetics don't accumulate.
• Lead and develop a high-performing warehouse team, providing guidance, training, and performance feedback to foster a culture of excellence and continuous improvement. Includes owning the site's hazardous-material training and qualification matrix, so every associate handling energetics is currently certified for the material and the task.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in supply chain management, logistics, business administration, or equivalent work experience
• 3+ years of experience in material management, inventory control, or supply chain management roles in an aerospace and/or defense manufacturing environment
• 1+ years of experience managing a lead of supervisors, associates or technicians
• Ability to be onsite in McHenry, MS, or willingness to relocate to the surrounding area
• Ability to obtain and maintain the site's medical, respirator, and explosives-handling qualifications, and to work in and around energetics operating buildings
• DOT hazardous-materials (HM-181 / HM-126F) general awareness and function-specific training, or ability to complete it within the first 90 days

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Hands‑on experience storing, segregating, and issuing energetic material — solid propellants, oxidizers (e.g., ammonium perchlorate), metal fuels, igniters, initiators, or Class/Division 1.1–1.4 items
• Working knowledge of explosives‑safety fundamentals: hazard classification, compatibility groups, quantity‑distance criteria, net explosive weight accounting, and licensed magazine management
• Experience running a shelf‑life / limited‑life material program including retest, extension, and expired‑lot disposition
• Familiarity with hazardous‑waste accumulation areas, satellite accumulation, and RCRA‑generator recordkeeping
• Experience with temperature‑and humidity‑controlled storage, flammable‑liquid cabinets, and chemical‑compatibility segregation
• DOT hazmat shipper/certifier experience for hazard‑class outbound shipments
• Experience supporting a low‑rate energetics or ordnance operation through a rate ramp, where storage capacity and Q‑D limits are the constraint rather than floor space

General

• Associate's or Bachelor's degree in supply chain, manufacturing or related operations field
• Strong understanding of production rate, critical path analysis, and key warehouse fundamentals
• Strong understanding for receiving and deployment documentation for domestic and international shipments
• Ability to identify safety issues with warehouse vehicles to ensure safe operations
• Strong knowledge of AS9100 standards and OSHA laws
