As a Materials Associate, you’ll own the physical movement of materials in and out of our production facility, and the inventory accuracy that keeps our build lines running. That means receiving inbound raw material, castings, forgings, purchased components, and tooling; verifying accuracy against POs; routing material to inspection, stockroom, or production; and packaging and shipping outbound hardware under strict traceability and compliance requirements.

In a SUBSAFE environment, every piece of material must be traceable from receipt to installation.

• Unload inbound shipments from carriers (UPS, Fed Ex, LTL, flatbed freight)
• Inspect packaging for damage and verify contents against packing slips, POs, and certifications
• Process receipts in the ERP system with accurate part numbers, quantities, heat/lot numbers, and serial data
• Verify material certifications (certs, MTRs, CoCs) accompany material as required
• Route material to incoming inspection, stockroom, or production cells per procedure
• Identify discrepancies (shortages, overages, damage, wrong material) and elevate to supply chain and quality
• Handle oversized and heavy receipts: raw plate, bar stock, forgings, castings, and coordinate with riggers and crane operators as needed

• Pack, crate, and palletize outbound hardware like machined components, welded sub‑assemblies, piping spools, and completed units using FOD‑controlled and shock/vibration‑rated methods
• Build custom crates and shipping fixtures for large or irregular components
• Generate bills of lading, packing lists, and carrier documentation
• Coordinate with freight forwarders and carriers for shipments

• Ability to read and interpret POs, packing slips, and basic engineering drawings (for part number verification)
• Working knowledge of domestic shipping: carrier coordination, LTL, bill of lading preparation
• Strong attention to detail: part numbers, quantities, lot/heat codes, revision levels
