Reporting to the VP of Operations, this role requires a quick-thinking, hands-on professional adept at managing inventory levels, vendor relations, and the purchasing cycle for over 600 parts across 50-75 vendors. The Buyer will work on-site to ensure inventory accuracy, negotiate effectively, and perform cycle counts regularly.
Key Responsibilities
- Purchasing and Vendor Management: Maintain and manage relationships with 50-75 vendors, sourcing and purchasing 600+ parts with a focus on speed and cost-effectiveness.

- 3-5+ years of buying experience, ideally within manufacturing.
- Strong communication skills, with an ability to engage directly with floor personnel and drive results.
- Experience with ERP systems (ODOO experience is a plus).
- Proven ability to negotiate effectively in a high-stakes, high-energy environment.
Preferred:
- Experience working in a warehouse setting and forklift certification.
- Bachelor’s degree in a related field.
