Onsite
As a Shipping & Receiving Specialist, you will be responsible for managing the day-to-day flow of materials, parts, and freight across the site, ensuring inbound and outbound shipments are received, inspected, documented, stored, and delivered accurately and efficiently. You will receive general parts and materials into NetSuite, inspect incoming goods for accuracy and condition, and ensure inventory is properly stocked and available to Operations, Engineering, and Facilities teams.
You will coordinate inbound freight, dock appointments, carrier access, and on-site pickups and drop-offs, working closely with internal teams to ensure shipments have the appropriate information and documentation. You will also prepare outbound shipments by verifying carriers, freight class, dimensions, weights, and shipping documentation before release. This role will support domestic and international FedEx shipments, including preparing commercial and packing documentation when required.
A key part of the role is maintaining accurate material flow and inventory control throughout the site. You will be responsible for processing material transfers between receiving, staging, storage, kitting, production, and shipping locations while maintaining organized dock and staging areas to prevent materials from becoming mixed, lost, or unprocessed.
You will maintain detailed shipping and receiving records to support supplier and customer traceability, including proof of delivery and documentation for freight damage, shortages, overages, and concealed damage. When issues arise, you will gather receiving evidence and escalate them to the appropriate teams.
In addition to shipping and receiving responsibilities, this role will provide support to the Facilities team by assisting with Facilities work orders and site-related tasks as needed. This may include helping with general site maintenance, material movement, inventory organization, setup and teardown activities, and other day-to-day Facilities needs. The ability to shift between warehouse, shipping and receiving, and Facilities responsibilities based on site priorities will be an important part of the role.
