Are you ready to be part of something from the ground up? We are preparing to launch a new data center and need a Materials Specialist to ensure our inventory and logistics operations are running smoothly from day one. In this role, you will manage the flow of critical hardware components that keep our infrastructure operational — receiving shipments, maintaining stock levels, and getting the right parts to the right technicians at the right time. This is a hands-on position where your organizational skills and attention to detail directly impact how quickly we can build and maintain our data center environment.

Key job responsibilities

Coordinate material flow for bulk deliveries including cabinets, power infrastructure, and networking equipment while maintaining organized and safe storage areas.
Identify and implement process improvements to increase efficiency in logistics workflows, collaborating with peers and escalating risks or roadblocks as needed.

A day in the life

From there, you move to the parts room where you organizing storage bins, staging spares for technicians working active tickets, and running cycle counts to keep stock levels accurate.
