Job Summary
Purple is seeking an Amazon Supply Chain & Inventory Manager to own end-to-end Amazon marketplace inventory operations as we scale our presence on the platform. This role is directly accountable for FBA replenishment planning, demand forecasting, in-stock rate performance, and out-of-stock risk mitigation across Purple’s mattress and pillow assortment.
Compensation target: $76,500 - $90,000
Essential Duties & Responsibilities- Amazon Inventory & Replenishment Management - Own FBA replenishment planning end-to-end, including shipment creation, inbound routing, and fulfilment center placement, while monitoring daily in-stock rates by ASIN and proactively resolving out-of-stock risks before they impact sales.
- Manage Amazon storage limits, IPI score health, and stranded inventory to optimize FBA capacity and avoid long-term storage fees; determine and maintain appropriate safety stock levels by SKU based on lead times, sales velocity, and seasonal demand patterns.
- Evaluate FBA vs. FBM/Seller-Fulfilled Prime decisions for oversized and non-standard SKUs (critical for Purple’s mattress catalog).
- Build and maintain ASIN-level demand forecasts using Amazon sales data, seasonality trends, promotional calendars, and new product launch timelines.
- Translate Amazon demand signals into actionable replenishment and production requests for the internal supply chain and logistics teams.
- Serve as the primary Amazon inventory liaison to Purple’s Logistics and Supply Chain team - communicating reorder triggers and urgency levels proactively, escalating supply constraints before they become OOS events, and ensuring inbound lead times are accurately reflected in replenishment planning.
- Coordinate inbound shipment timelines from Purple’s DCs or 3PLs to Amazon FCs and maintain and update lead time assumptions by SKU and route as supplier or logistics conditions change.
- Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management, business, operations, or a related field (equivalent work experience considered).
- 3-5 years of experience in Amazon Seller Central operations, eCommerce inventory management, or supply chain planning.
- Demonstrated experience managing FBA replenishment, restock limits, and IPI score optimization in a 3P Seller Central environment.
- Experience with oversized or bulky FBA categories (furniture, bedding, or similar) strongly preferred.
- Background working cross-functionally with logistics, warehousing, or 3PL teams to execute inventory plans.
- Experience building demand forecasts at the SKU or ASIN level using sales data and market signals.
- Deep fluency in Amazon Seller Central: shipment workflows, restock recommendations, inventory performance tools, and FBA fee structures.
- Strong analytical skills; comfortable building and maintaining inventory models in Excel or Google Sheets.
- Experience with BI tools (Tableau, Looker, or similar) is a plus.
- Understanding of safety stock and lead time modeling concepts, including how to account for variability in supplier and carrier performance.
- Ability to translate inventory data into clear, urgent, and actionable communication for cross-functional partners in supply chain and logistics.
- Familiarity with inventory planning tools (e.g., Inventory Lab, SPS Commerce, Cin7, Net Suite, or similar) is a plus.
- Detail-oriented, organized, and comfortable managing multiple SKUs and fulfillment scenarios simultaneously.
- Self-directed and proactive - this role requires owning problems and driving solutions without waiting to be asked.
