Job DescriptionAbout Us
Chariot Defense is a defense technology company that designs and manufactures a family of power products for the U.S. military and its allies. We believe that credible deterrence of armed conflict and winning if deterrence fails, requires more than just the best drones, sensors, weapons, electronic warfare systems, and command &amp; control capabilities. Those critical components will require sustained electric power in austere and resource-constrained environments. Moreover, military units must be able to turn off the trucks and generators that generate this power to hide and survive. In other words, power generation must be decoupled from power consumption. Chariot Defense's products enable exactly this capability, allowing U.S. and allied militaries to be more lethal and survivable. We hope you will join us on this mission.
About the Role
Chariot Defense is seeking an experienced Supply Chain Manager to join our operations team, reporting to the Head of Operations. In this role, you will source, buy, and oversee the procurement and logistics of the components comprising Chariot Defense's family of advanced power products.

Assist in the scheduling of logistics to support operations and customer order fulfillment of finished goods. Secure necessary government permits and ensure regulatory compliance for international shipments. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Documentation &amp; Inventory: Maintain 100% inventory and financial traceability within our ERP. Escalate any concerns with gaps in documentation or inventory concerns as they become apparent. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Collaboration &amp; Improvement: Work with manufacturing and engineering team members to improve process efficiency and propose alternative components to increase supply chain resilience and compliance. </li>
