Aalo Atomics is seeking a Supply Chain Operations Manager to lead and scale core supply chain execution capabilities across Receiving, Inventory Control, Materials Storage and Routing, Production Kitting and Point of Use support, and Inbound and Outbound Logistics Operations. This role is responsible for building the systems, processes, and team needed to support reliable material flow, inventory integrity, and operational readiness across operations in Austin and Idaho Falls.

This is initially a working manager role. In the near term, the successful candidate will be expected to work hands-on in receiving, material handling, and inventory operations to build deep familiarity with Aalo's processes, systems, and nuclear quality requirements. However, the long-term expectation for this position is not simply to execute the work directly, but to design, standardize, scale, and lead the operation.

This leader will establish robust processes, implement effective controls, develop team capability, and create the operating system that enables the function to perform consistently as the company grows.

The role should be viewed primarily as a systems builder and people leader for supply chain operations. While the position includes ownership of day-to-day operational performance, hands-on execution is intended to be transitional as the manager develops expertise, improves processes, and scales the organization.

The primary scope of the logistics role is focused on operational execution of inbound and outbound shipments and close coordination with logistics providers and internal stakeholders. Additionally, partner with Supply Chain Managers to provide guidance on strategic supplier management, supplier performance and issue resolution.
