The Material Coordinator serves as the material-flow interface between Development, Supply Chain, and Warehouse Operations, ensuring materials and consumables required for development, assembly, and system integration are available when and where needed. The Development organization builds large-format laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) sub-assemblies, complete printer systems, and ancillary modules that form adaptive production systems. The environment is fast-paced and dynamic, with changing material requirements, hardware configurations, build priorities, and delivery needs.

This role works directly with development teams to understand requirements and with Supply Chain and Warehouse teams to establish and continuously improve receiving, staging, delivery, replenishment, and shortage-management processes. The role is focused on coordinating and improving material flow rather than performing traditional warehouse picking or kitting. This position may be filled at the Specialist II, III, or IV level based on demonstrated knowledge, experience, independence, complexity of work, and scope of responsibility.

• Serve as the material-flow interface between Development, Supply Chain, and Warehouse Operations.
• Understand build plans, material requirements, priorities, and changing configurations.
• Translate development needs into receiving, staging, delivery, and replenishment requirements.
• Support large-format LPBF sub-assemblies, complete printer systems, and ancillary adaptive production modules.

• Receive incoming development materials and verify part numbers, quantities, revisions, and documentation.
• Organize and stage materials based on build priority, intended use, configuration, and delivery requirements.
• Maintain material identification, traceability, and visibility from receipt through delivery.
• Partner with Warehouse Operations to establish delivery schedules, staging locations, replenishment methods, and clear ownership.
• Develop appropriate handling and storage practices for sensitive, high-value, or delicate components.

• Track consumable material usage and establish replenishment methods for build and integration teams.
• Monitor consumable levels, usage trends, and recurring needs to prevent shortages and work interruptions.
• Continuously improve delivery and replenishment methods based on team feedback and changing requirements.

• Identify, document, and track material shortages and potential impacts to development schedules.
• Coordinate with Supply Chain and Warehouse to resolve shortages and elevate critical constraints.
• Identify recurring shortages and material-flow issues and work cross-functionally to address root causes.

• Observe development and integration activities to identify material-flow and build-support improvements.
• Develop and iterate processes for receiving, staging, delivery, replenishment, and shortage management.
• Use data and team feedback to identify bottlenecks and improve material availability and delivery reliability.
• Develop scalable material-flow processes that can evolve from development…
