About Us
We are a nimble, high-growth $30M company building the future of our operational footprint. We are seeking a high-autonomy, solution-oriented team member who is an absolute inventory management and predictive forecasting wiz. This role features a highly strategic reporting matrix: you will have a solid reporting line to the Chief Supply Chain Officer (CSCO) for core network strategy and inventory governance, while maintaining a strong dotted reporting line to the EVP of Direct Sales Operations to ensure data pipelines perfectly synchronize with go-to-market pipelines. Our business model is strictly B2B, but our fulfillment operations present as Direct-to-Consumer (DTC). Rather than managing traditional bulk palletized wholesale shipments, you will manage a high-velocity, high-frequency volume of line-item and individual component movements tailored for commercial clients. As a team member in our agile environment, you must possess a builder mindset and deeply understand the unique structural constraints of a Multi-Layer Hub-and-Spoke Distribution Model. You will run point on inventory modeling from our central Hubs (routing to both internal nodes and external corporate customer locations) down through our Spokes (internal regional nodes routing to final installation sites). Our engineering philosophy heavily favors open-source tools to achieve high-performance results at low cost. You will extract and manipulate transactional sales, order, and fulfillment data sourced directly from our Shopify ecosystem, laying the foundational groundwork for our automated multi-tier replenishment models. Crucially, your impact will extend beyond our internal walls; using our rich data assets, you will architect customer-facing open-source data automation strategies, directly optimizing and automating the Bosso supply chain ecosystem for our external enterprise clients.
Role Overview We are seeking a high-caliber Demand & Inventory Planner to own end-to-end demand forecasting, multi-echelon inventory optimization (MEIO), and supply chain modeling for our US-based import business. Operating on a hub-and-spoke distribution model, our supply chain manages international inbound shipments into multiple primary US hubs—which fulfill external customer orders—while replenishing regional spoke locations that support our internal operational teams. Working directly alongside our US based team during full US Mountain Time business hours, you will play a critical role in segregating and modeling these two distinct demand streams, driving S&OP; alignment, and optimizing working capital across international lead times. This role is ideal for a data-driven planner from an MNC, FMCG, retail, or Global Capability Center (GCC) background who thrives in high-ownership US-aligned operations.
Key Responsibilities
• Dual-Stream Demand Forecasting: Develop and maintain statistical and consensus SKU-level forecasts across two independent demand profiles: external commercial customer demand (fulfilled via hubs) and internal operational/team consumption (fulfilled via spokes).
• Distribution Requirements Planning (DRP) & MEIO: Model multi-tier inventory policies—including dynamic safety stock, reorder points (ROP), and hub-to-spoke stock transfer schedules—ensuring high service levels without starving either channel.
• International Import & Inbound Supply Modeling: Build end-to-end supply scenarios accounting for overseas vendor manufacturing lead times, ocean/air freight transit windows, customs clearance, US port routing, and supplier MOQs.
• Procurement & Replenishment Execution: Generate timely purchase requisitions for international suppliers and manage inter-warehouse transfer orders across the hub-and-spoke network.
• Real-Time S&OP; & Cross-Functional Collaboration:
Collaborate live during US Mountain Time hours with our Boise-based Sales, Marketing, Warehouse, and Operations teams to align rolling demand plans with promotions, product launches, and field project schedules.
• Supply Chain Analytics & KPI Governance: Track, analyze, and report core performance metrics including Forecast Accuracy / Bias (MAPE / WAPE), OTIF (On-Time In-Full), Inventory Turnover, Days of Inventory on Hand (DOH), and SLOB (Slow-Moving and Obsolete) stock. Required Qualifications & Certifications
•
Experience:
5+ years of hands-on experience in Demand Planning, Supply Planning, or Inventory Control within an MNC, e-commerce, retail, FMCG, or GCC environment supporting US or global supply chains.
• Certifications (Strongly Preferred): ASCM APICS CPIM, CSCP, or IBF CPF certification.
• Network & Modeling Expertise: Proven track record managing multi-warehouse, hub-and-spoke, or multi-echelon inventory networks with distinct B2B/B2C and internal consumption streams.
• Technical & Analytical Stack: Expert-level Microsoft Excel skills (advanced formulas, Power Query, pivot modeling, scenario/sensitivity analysis). Proficiency in SQL, Power BI, or Tableau is highly advantageous.
• ERP & Planning Systems: Hands-on experience with enterprise ERP/planning platforms such as SAP IBP/APO, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Kinaxis, or Cin7.
• Shift Readiness & Communication: Proven ability to work full US Mountain Time night shifts (IST overnight) reliably from a quiet home-office setup with high-speed internet, paired with solid English communication skills.
•
Education:
Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Engineering, Statistics, Economics, or Operations (MBA / PGDM in Operations & Supply Chain is a plus). Why Join Us?
• Direct US Team Integration: Operate as a core member of our Boise, Idaho team with real-time collaboration and direct visibility to executive leadership.
• Competitive USD-Benchmarked Pay: Compensation up to ₹18.8 LPA ($20,000 USD) inclusive of night-shift compensation for certified, top-tier talent.
• 100% Work-From-Home Convenience: Full remote flexibility from anywhere in India—avoid late-night city commutes while earning top-bracket global pay.
