Spreetail propels brands to increase their ecommerce market share across the globe while improving their operational costs. Learn how we are building one of the fastest-growing ecommerce companies in history:

Work Your Way: At Spreetail, we believe in empowering our employees to work in the way that suits them best through our Work Your Way approach. Each team member has the flexibility to choose where they work most effectively each week—whether that’s from home, a coffee shop, or the office. While flexibility is key, we also value the power of in‑person connection.

That’s why we bring our corporate team together in Lincoln each quarter for a week of intentional collaboration, team building, community engagement, and our All‑Hands meeting. It’s the best of both worlds: the freedom to work your way, with meaningful opportunities to connect and grow together. Please scroll to the bottom of the job posting to confirm that your state qualifies for the Work Your Way program.

We are seeking a Senior Industrial Engineer or Senior Program Manager to lead the optimisation and scaling of our fulfilment network infrastructure. In this role, you will own the long‑term facility design strategy and drive the execution of multi‑million‑dollar capital projects, from initial concept through automation deployment. You will collaborate closely with executive leadership, operations, and external vendors to establish network‑wide engineering standards that maximise density and throughput.

If you have a strong background in layout engineering, capital expenditure (Cap Ex) management, and data‑driven process improvement, this role offers the opportunity to directly shape our network’s operational footprint.

• Strategic Network Expansion & Cap Ex Ownership: Capitalise and lead end‑to‑end launch strategies for new fulfilment centres (FCs) and major retrofits. You will own multi‑million‑dollar capital expenditure (Cap Ex) budgets, negotiate with external automation and general contractors, and ensure aggressive timelines match our hyper‑growth trajectory.
• Next‑Gen Storage & Automation Architecture: Define the network‑wide standards for storage capacity, vertical space utilisation, and layout engineering. You will pioneer the integration of advanced automation (e.g., AS/RS, robotics, complex conveyor systems) to radically maximise density and throughput.
• Data‑Driven Operational Design: Lead complex layout overhauls utilising advanced CAD/Sketch Up modelling integrated with predictive data analytics. You will align physical footprint design with complex inventory health metrics, long‑term velocity forecasts, and macroeconomic supply chain shifts.
• Business Intelligence & Executive Governance: Establish robust engineering metrics, predictive throughput models, and centralised Power BI/SQL frameworks. You will synthesise complex operational data into actionable narratives for executive leadership to justify infrastructure investments.
• Cross‑Functional & Vendor Leadership: Act as the primary technical liaison between executive leadership, operations, tech teams, and tier‑1 automation vendors. You will manage high‑value vendor relationships, negotiate service‑level agreements (SLAs), and foster cross‑functional alignment to mitigate deployment risks.

• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Industrial Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related quantitative field.
• Experience: 5+ years of progressive experience in industrial engineering, fulfilment network planning, or large‑scale logistics programme management.
• Capital Project Portfolio: A proven track record of successfully scoping, budgeting, and deploying $5M+ greenfield or automation‑heavy brownfield capital projects.
• Technical Mastery: Advanced proficiency in AutoCAD/Sketch Up for facility layout design, paired with expert‑level data extraction and modelling capabilities (SQL, Power BI, Python, or discrete event simulation tools like Flex Sim).
• Leadership Impact: Demonstrated ability to influence executive stakeholders, manage high‑performing project teams, and navigate complex, ambiguous…
