What We Offer

As our Supply Chain Manager, you will own end-to-end material planning, inventory strategy, freight and logistics optimization, and supplier performance for our light manufacturing facility — driving measurable results against real business priorities like inventory reduction, freight cost savings, and on-time delivery. You will independently determine objectives, lead cross-functional initiatives, and directly influence the long-range direction of our supply chain. If you are a proven supply chain leader who thrives on ownership and impact — join us.

What You Will Do

Inventory Strategy & Working Capital

• Own inventory reduction strategy — reduce gross inventory through disciplined safety stock reviews, lead time management, and PO push-out/pull-in execution based on changing demand.
• Drive inventory turns improvement (target: 3.2 → 4+) by reviewing order quantities and ensuring consumption horizons stay within 6 months.
• Manage component-level inventory reduction initiatives; direct contract manufacturers (CMs) to consume available Opengear-owned excess material before purchasing new components.
• Oversee consignment inventory strategy across the Sandy facility and CM locations, including excess material management.
• Lead freight cost reduction strategy, shifting PO planning toward ocean freight (DHL, Fed Ex, Mainfreight, Quality SVC, Expeditors) wherever operationally feasible.
• Develop and execute tariff avoidance strategy leveraging USMCA and alternative sourcing to minimize tariff expense.
• Drive strategic sourcing and PPV (purchase price variance) savings initiatives across key commodities (e.g., memory, semiconductor components) through supplier negotiations and buydown programs.
• Identify and execute project-level cost savings opportunities, including manufacturing footprint and box-build sourcing strategies with external partners.

Customer Delivery & NPI Collaboration

• Own on-time delivery (OTD) performance through disciplined PO management using Source Day or equivalent supplier collaboration platforms.
• Align contract manufacturer delivery commitments with customer requirements; proactively resolve delivery date conflicts.
• Partner with Engineering on New Product Introduction (NPI) readiness, ensuring component and supply chain survey results translate into on-time supply chain execution.
• Monitor and report supply chain performance metrics to leadership, highlighting risks and improvement opportunities.
• Lead material requirements planning (MRP) to ensure materials are available to support the master production schedule; proactively identify and resolve supply risks before they impact production.
• Manage supplier and subcontractor relationships domestically and internationally; negotiate pricing, lead times, and delivery commitments.
• Support export compliance activities including trade agreements, customs documentation, and import/export coordination.
• Maintain data integrity within ERP systems (Epicor or equivalent) for planning, inventory, and purchasing.
