About This Role
- Own end-to-end global logistics operations including import (components, tooling, equipment) and export (finished robots, spares) across air, ocean, and inland freight modes.
- Manage customs compliance, documentation, trade regulations, freight rate negotiation, and vendor relationships to ensure smooth, cost-optimized freight execution with minimal clearance delays.
- Maintain logistics risk dashboard and performance scorecards to support scaling production to 200 units/year without logistics-related schedule slips.
Minimum Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Logistics, Commerce, or related field.
- 4–8 years of experience in international logistics, freight forwarding, or shipper-side EXIM operations with hands-on ownership of both import and export across air, ocean, and inland freight modes.
- Strong knowledge of Indian customs procedures, documentation, HS classification, duty structure, and trade compliance obligations.
- Global lane exposure beyond India required, preferably including China and US.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experienced in managing complex multi-modal international logistics involving high-value, fragile, or dangerous goods such as lithium-ion batteries.
- Capable of driving freight cost optimization through consolidation, mode shifts, duty schemes, and diligent vendor management with clear quantitative outcomes.
- Comfortable working in startup-like environments requiring process building and using data-driven freight and landed-cost modeling tools (Excel/Sheets).
