LAYIQ - Director, Warehouse Operations & Production Supply at Anduril

Run daily operations across our headquarters and Orange County sites: receiving, put away, storage, picking, kitting, line side delivery, and outbound shipping to other Anduril sites and to deployment.
Own the result production cares about most: zero line stoppages caused by material, with dock to stock, kit on time and line side fill rate held to the service levels agreed with each production team. Every miss gets an A3 with a root cause, a countermeasure, an owner and a date.
Run the operation from data. Build the daily view of labor, productivity by process, backlog and service level by site, pulled from the system rather than from spreadsheets, and use it to staff every shift.
Lead from the floor through daily Gemba walks, tier meetings at every site, and a steady pace of kaizen events that each target a measured problem.
Own safety and cost at every site you run: zero recordables as the standard, the operating budget for labor, overtime, supplies and equipment, and cost per unit handled reported monthly to Finance.
Hold transaction discipline and location control in every flow you run, so the counts run by our Inventory Control and Quality Assurance team find nothing to fix. Execute quality at the point of handling: receiving checks, damage prevention and segregation of nonconforming material.
Keep government furnished property and export controlled material segregated, serialized and traceable in every flow you run.
Hire, train and develop hourly associates and the supervisors who lead them. Manage labor to the productivity standards and staffing guidelines set for each process, and manage overtime and attrition against plan.
Launch the Long Beach campus: hire its leaders, write its standard work, and run it to the same measures as headquarters from the first shift.
Act as the first user of every new system and layout. Test warehouse system changes on the floor before they go live, and accept or reject layout and automation handovers from Material Flow Engineering.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
Bachelor's degree in supply chain, operations, industrial engineering, business or a related field, OR 15+ years of equivalent operations experience
12+ years of experience in fulfillment, distribution, 3PL or warehouse operations, including leadership of a high volume site

Experience managing labor to engineered or measured productivity standards by process
Experience running warehouse operations on a warehouse management system
Must be able to work extended hours and/or weekends as needed to meet production milestones

This position is based in Costa Mesa, CA and requires being onsite. Remote work not considered. Candidates outside the area must be willing to relocate to Costa Mesa, CA
U.S. Person status is required, as this position needs access to export controlled material and data
