## Job description

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.

SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

- Verify all material received for conformity with accompanying paperwork, checking for damage, correct part numbers, quantity, and revisions prior to release of work orders or kits
- Work with internal customers for priority and schedule requirements
- Assist materials management leadership and project teams with action item updates as required
- Communicate part status and estimated completion dates to leadership upon request
- Assist logistics and operations teams in corrective actions
- Support logistics process through innovative staging of workflow
- Perform de-kitting operations and own the return-to-stock process
- Support productivity improvement across receiving, inventory, kitting, and material flow

## BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
