Description du poste

Associate Supply Chain Engineer | Nox Metals | Detroit, MI or Los Angeles, CA

About Nox Metals.

American factories deserve a supply chain that moves as fast as they do. Nox Metals is building it, along with the tools that run it. We’re a technology company with operations in Metro Detroit and Los Angeles, supplying aluminum plate, bar, and rounds to aerospace and defense manufacturers. We use software and automation to supply metal to American factories faster than the industry thought possible.

The role.

We’re hiring Associate Supply Chain Engineers to improve how material is bought, positioned, and moved through Nox Metals. You will use data and direct operational work to help the right aluminum reach the right facility at the right time, without hiding problems behind excess inventory.

You will work across purchasing, suppliers, inventory, production, sales, and logistics. This is a strong early-career role for someone who likes analytical problems but wants to see the physical result of their decisions.

You will:

• Translate demand and inventory data into practical purchasing and transfer recommendations
• Place and track purchase orders and resolve supplier exceptions
• Monitor lead times, availability, service levels, and material exposure
• Analyze shortages, excess, expedite costs, and recurring planning errors
• Coordinate inbound freight and interfacility material movements
• Maintain accurate supplier, item, and purchasing data
• Work with sales and operations to understand priorities and changing demand
• Build reports and simple tools that improve daily decisions
• Visit the floor to reconcile system data with physical reality
• Own improvement projects with measurable cost, availability, or speed outcomes

You are:

• Analytical, organized, and willing to chase details to the source
• Comfortable with spreadsheets, data, and quantitative tradeoffs
• A clear communicator with suppliers and internal teams
• Curious about manufacturing, inventory, logistics, and physical constraints
• Calm when a plan changes and disciplined about communicating the impact
• Willing to do routine transactional work while improving the system around it
• Accountable for results rather than just recommendations

Nice to have:

• Degree or experience in supply chain, industrial engineering, operations, analytics, or a related field
• Experience in purchasing, planning, logistics, manufacturing, or distribution
• Familiarity with ERP, inventory, or business-intelligence tools
• Experience with SQL, Python, optimization, or statistical analysis
• Comfort using AI tools to research, analyze, and automate responsibly

Benefits:

• Equity in Nox Metals
• Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
