Support the Head of Supply Chain in building the operating system that enables Atoms to scale from early retrofit builds to thousands of human-driven AV data-collection vehicles, and eventually to large-scale driverless L4 fleet deployment. This role owns day-to-day execution across procurement, logistics, inventory control, VIN-specific kitting, supplier coordination, and part-level traceability.

• Track open POs, supplier ship dates, inbound logistics, receiving status, and delivery risks.
• Maintain inventory accuracy for high-value serialized hardware and fast-moving consumables.
• Build and manage VIN-specific kits so vehicles enter the retrofit line with complete, pre-verified hardware.

• Manage defective-part quarantine, warranty claims, and RMA follow-up with suppliers.
