2nd Shift Warehouse Supervisor

As the 2nd Shift Materials Supervisor, you will create a strategic plan to optimize warehouse operations, create a standard set of metrics to monitor team performance, set goals for improving performance, and identify areas to reduce cost while maintaining quality. Hours will be 3pm-12pm Central.

This role supports Anduril's Rocket Motor Systems (RMS) site in McHenry, MS, a multi-building campus where the material set includes solid rocket motor propellants, oxidizers, energetic and ordnance items, and shelf-life-controlled chemicals. Storage, segregation, and movement of these materials is governed by explosives-safety siting, not just warehouse convenience, so the right person is comfortable owning a hazardous-material inventory as well as a conventional one.

The right person for this role has extensive supply chain knowledge, has developed SOPs and implemented them, has implemented or improved ERP/WMS, and has a track record of managing expensive and hazardous inventory. If you are someone who can operate autonomously to keep a warehouse team motivated and enjoys process improvement this may be the role for you.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Develop and implement material management strategies, policies, and procedures to comply with regulations.
• Hiring & training talent who can manage material flow per Anduril guidelines.
• Develop processes that increase the efficiency (speed & elimination of waste) and effectiveness of Anduril materials management.
• Implement necessary systems that match Anduril Federal policies on management of government property & inventory management.
• Implement End-to-End material management measures, including FIFO adherence, material variances, cycle time optimization, scrap/obsolescence management, cycle/physical counting, and audits, etc., to ensure inventory accuracy and to mitigate stockouts or overstocking. This includes the development & improvement of critical metrics.
• Own the energetics and hazardous-material storage program across site buildings — magazine and igloo storage, hazard-division and compatibility-group segregation, net explosive weight (NEW) tracking against sited limits, and quantity-distance (Q-D) compliance for every storage location.
• Manage shelf-life-controlled inventory as a first-class discipline: expiration and removal-from-service dates on propellant binders, curatives, resins, epoxies, elastomers, and oxidizers; FEFO issue by lot; retest/extension coordination with Quality; and disposition of expired lots before they reach the floor.
• Control lot and serial traceability on energetic material from receipt through issue to the mix bay and motor build — including lot genealogy for propellant ingredients and the consumption records that tie a mix sheet back to the specific lots it drew from.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including procurement, production, manufacturing engineering, logistics, and quality, to aid in accurate demand forecasting, procurement planning, and timely delivery of materials.
• Collaborate with production planning and manufacturing teams to align material availability with production schedules, minimize disruptions, and meet customer demand on time.
• Coordinate inter-building material movement across the campus, including scheduled runs that stage energetic and chemical material to the operating buildings — accounting for transport limits, escort and personnel-limit rules, temperature-controlled handling, and the operating status of each energetics building on a given day.
• Partner with ESOH/Explosives Safety and Facilities on storage siting, licensed magazine capacity, and inventory changes that shift the site's NEW posture; support explosives-safety inspections and ATF/DoD compliance audits with accurate, on-demand inventory records.
• Analyze material usage trends, identify opportunities for process improvements, and implement lean practices to optimize material handling, storage, and distribution.
• Utilize ERP & WMS software systems and tools to track inventory, generate reports, and provide data-driven insights to support decision-making and optimize material-related processes. This includes maintaining accurate lot, expiration, and hazard attributes in the ERP so that shelf-life and segregation status is visible from the system rather than from a binder on the wall.
• Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, safety standards, and quality control protocols in all material management activities. For this site that includes DoD 6055.09-M, ATF 27 CFR Part 555, DOT 49 CFR hazardous-materials shipping, NFPA 495 and NFPA 30, OSHA 1910.109 / 1910.106 / 1910.1200 (HazCom), and EPA/state requirements for hazardous-waste accumulation and disposal.
• Maintain the MRB / quarantine and nonconforming-material program for hazardous and energetic items — physical segregation, aging visibility on held material, and timely disposition so quarantined energetics don't accumulate.
• Lead and develop a high-performing warehouse team, providing guidance, training, and performance feedback to foster a culture of excellence and continuous improvement. Includes owning the site's hazardous-material training and qualification matrix, so every associate handling energetics is currently certified for the material and the task.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor's degree in supply chain management, logistics, business administration, or equivalent work experience
• 3+ years of experience in material management, inventory control, or supply chain management roles in an aerospace and/or defense manufacturing environment
• 1+ years of experience managing a lead of supervisors, associates or technicians
• Ability to be onsite in McHenry, MS, or willingness to relocate to the surrounding area
• Ability to obtain and maintain the site's medical, respirator, and explosives-handling qualifications, and to work in and around energetics operating buildings
• DOT hazardous-materials (HM-181 / HM-126F) general awareness and function-specific training, or ability to complete it within the first 90 days

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Hands-on experience storing, segregating, and issuing energetic material — solid propellants, oxidizers (e.g., ammonium perchlorate), metal fuels, igniters, initiators, or Class/Division 1.1–1.4 items
• Working knowledge of explosives-safety fundamentals: hazard classification, compatibility groups, quantity-distance criteria, net explosive weight accounting, and licensed magazine management
• Experience running a shelf-life / limited-life material program including retest, extension, and expired-lot disposition
• Familiarity with hazardous-waste accumulation areas, satellite accumulation, and RCRA-generator recordkeeping
• Experience with temperature- and humidity-controlled storage, flammable-liquid cabinets, and chemical-compatibility segregation
• DOT hazmat shipper/certifier experience for hazard-class outbound shipments
• Experience supporting a low-rate energetics or ordnance operation through a rate ramp, where storage capacity and Q-D limits are the constraint rather than floor space

General

• Associate's or Bachelor's degree in supply chain, manufacturing or related operations field
• Strong understanding of production rate, critical path analysis, and key warehouse fundamentals
• Strong understanding for receiving and deployment documentation for domestic and international shipments
• Ability to identify safety issues with warehouse vehicles to ensure safe operations
• Strong knowledge of AS9100 standards and OSHA laws
• Experience being hands-on and boots on the ground in the warehouse with proven skills in both process and equipment troubleshooting, and ability to adapt to constantly changing warehouse environments
• Passion for employee development and enjoy the process of training and developing both new hires and veteran warehouse staff
• Experience supporting process development and implementing new processes
• Experience supporting equipment maintenance
