Its flagship munition, Anthem, combines heavy payload and long range at a fraction of the cost of comparable legacy systems, with production volumes designed to meet the demands of prolonged conflict. Designed as an end-to-end weapon system that is simple to store, transport, and field, Anthem is produced in the United States, Germany, and Israel. For more information, visitcovenant.com\nTHE ROLE\nThe Inventory Specialist owns the physical flow of material through our Grand Prairie production facility, from the moment it arrives at the dock to the moment it is kitted and handed to the production floor. You will be the first person in this role, which means you will help design the receiving process, lay out the warehouse, and set the standards for inventory accuracy that the rest of the operation depends on.\nThis is a hands-on role. You will spend most of your day on the floor - receiving, putting away, counting, and kitting - while also working in our ERP system to keep the data as accurate as the shelves. Production can only build what you stage, so accuracy, discipline, and a sense of urgency matter here.\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\nReceiving. Check in all incoming material against the purchase order, make sure the paperwork is complete, enter receipts in the ERP the same day, and chase down any discrepancies with Procurement and Quality.\nWarehouse organization. Set up and maintain an organized, safe warehouse with clear locations and labels. Keep material separated by status and store special-handling items (shelf-life, temperature-controlled, ESD-sensitive, hazmat) correctly.\nInventory management. Keep the system matching the shelves. Run cycle counts, maintain lot and serial traceability, watch expiration dates, and flag shortages early.\nKitting. Pull and verify kits to work orders on schedule so production has what it needs, when it needs it.\nProcess development. Write the work instructions for these processes, support ERP setup, and keep improving how material moves through the facility.\nREQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS\n3+ years of experience in receiving, inventory control, warehouse, or material handling in a manufacturing environment\nHands-on experience with an ERP or MRP system for receiving and inventory transactions\nExperience kitting to work orders or bills of material\nStrong attention to detail and a track record of high inventory accuracy\nComfortable with Excel or Google Sheets\nAbility to read packing slips, purchase orders, part numbers, and revision levels\nForklift certification, or ability to obtain it within 30 days of hire\nAbility to lift up to 50 lbs and to stand, walk, bend, and reach for extended periods\nMust be a U.S. person as defined by ITAR (22 CFR 120.62), due to access to export-controlled information and material\n\nPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS\nExperience in aerospace, defense, or another regulated industry (AS9100, ISO 9001)\nFamiliarity with material traceability, certificates of conformance, and first article inspection documentation\nExperience handling shelf-life or temperature-controlled materials such as composites, adhesives, or sealants\nExperience with barcode or scanner-based inventory systems\nExperience helping set up a new warehouse, facility, or ERP system\nAPICS CPIM or similar inventory certification\nWHAT MAKES YOU SUCCESSFUL\nIn your first 90 days, you have set up the receiving process and warehouse layout, put location control and labeling in place, and established a working kitting process with Production.\nIn your first year, inventory accuracy is consistently at 98% or higher, kits arrive at the floor on time and complete, and every received item has its paperwork and traceability in order.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3914,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":true,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United
