About This Role

Job Overview

This Supply Chain Analyst position is about making the numbers tell a story. You'll dig into data to find where processes slow down, costs creep up, or inventory gets stuck. It's a role built for someone who enjoys connecting dots between procurement, logistics, and warehouse operations to make things run smoother. The job is based in Austin, TX, offering a chance to impact local and regional supply chains.

Duties & Responsibilities

  • Analyze carrier performance and freight spend to identify savings opportunities.
  • Build and maintain forecasting models for inventory levels across multiple product lines.
  • Track key metrics like order fill rates, on time delivery, and days of supply.
  • Prepare weekly reports that highlight bottlenecks and suggest actionable improvements.
  • Collaborate with purchasing and warehouse teams to align stock levels with demand signals.

Requirements

  • A solid grasp of Excel is non negotiable; think pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, and basic macros.
  • You've spent at least two years working in logistics, procurement, or inventory planning.
  • A bachelor's degree in business, supply chain management, or a related field is expected.
  • The work involves sustained focus while reviewing complex datasets; strong analytical stamina is key.

What It's Like In This Role

You'll typically work with an ERP system like SAP or Oracle NetSuite, pulling data into more specialized analytics tools. The team setup usually involves regular check ins with planners and logistics coordinators; it's collaborative but gives you space for deep dive analysis. Expect a mix of routine reporting cycles and ad hoc projects that pop up when a shipment gets delayed or demand suddenly shifts. Most days are structured, but you need to be ready to pivot when issues arise.
