Overview

and the job listing Expires on January 28, 2026

We’re hiring a new graduate to support purchasing and material readiness for machine builds. You’ll use Odoo (ERP) to help manage purchase orders, track supplier lead times, support receiving/documentation, and keep production moving. Odoo experience is a plus, but we can teach it
—we care more about follow-through, organization, and the ability to learn quickly.

You’ll work closely with Engineering, Assembly, and Finance to ensure the right parts arrive on time and are properly documented.

Responsibilities
  • Purchasing & Expediting
    • Create and release purchase orders in Odoo
    • Track supplier confirmations, lead times, and shipment dates
    • Proactively expedite critical items and escalate risks early
    • Maintain accurate ETAs and communicate changes to the build team
  • Materials & Build Readiness
    • Support material planning using BOMs and build schedules
    • Maintain a shortage list and help drive weekly “parts readiness” reviews
    • Coordinate substitutions or alternates with Engineering when needed
  • Receiving, Documentation & Quality Support
    • Ensure deliveries are received and matched to POs (packing slips, quantities, revisions)
    • Track required documentation:
      COC/COA, material certs, inspection reports
    • Flag nonconforming shipments and support supplier returns/replacements
  • ERP Data Quality (Odoo)
    • Help maintain vendor records, part numbers, lead times, and pricing in Odoo
    • Support basic inventory accuracy improvements (location discipline, cycle counts)
    • Assist with simple reporting/dashboards (Odoo + Excel)
  • Finance Coordination (Quick Books Support)
    • Coordinate invoice matching (PO/receipt/invoice) and resolve discrepancies
    • Work with the finance team on vendor bills and documentation (Quick Books experience is helpful but not required.)
What We’re Looking For
  • Required
    • Bachelor’s degree (or graduating soon) in Supply Chain, Operations, Business, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering
      , or related
    • Strong organizational skills and follow-through (you close loops and keep records clean)
    • Comfortable with spreadsheets and basic reporting (
      Excel
      )
    • Able to work on-site in Hauppauge, NY
  • Preferred / Bonus
    • Any ERP exposure (
      Odoo, Net Suite, Epicor, SAP
      , etc.) —
      Odoo is a plus
    • Internship/co-op experience in purchasing, planning, or manufacturing
    • Familiarity with BOMs, drawings, part revisions, or machine-shop environments
    • Interest in precision manufacturing, machining, automation, or machine tools
What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)
  • You can run an open PO list in Odoo and keep ETAs accurate
  • Past-due and long-lead risks are flagged early (no “surprise” shortages)
  • Receiving paperwork and cert tracking is consistent and easy to find
  • Assembly team feels better supported and schedules become more predictable
Tools You’ll Use
  • Excel — tracking, dashboards, and follow-up lists
  • Quick Books — invoice support / coordination with finance (secondary)
