Materials Systems & Training Lead Scalable Supply Ops

Saronic Technologies is a leader in revolutionizing autonomy at sea, dedicated to developing state-of-the-art solutions that enhance maritime operations through autonomous and intelligent platforms.

The Supply Chain Materials Systems & Process Manager owns how materials move, are recorded, and are taught across the enterprise, and leads the team that confirms every site is ready to run those processes.

This role designs, standardizes, and scales materials management and warehouse processes, and serves as the subject matter expert (SME) for supply chain systems, inventory control, and warehouse operations. The Manager keeps physical material flow aligned with system execution in the ERP/WMS, and builds the training and certification programs that make that alignment repeatable at every site.

The Manager also leads the Supply Training & Analysis Team, which develops curriculum, delivers and certifies training, and analyzes performance data to confirm readiness across Supply Chain Materials.
