Inventory Control Specialist – Lot Traceability

Job Description

Traceability only works if the inventory record is right. As Inventory Control Specialist, you own the accuracy of our component and finished-goods inventory from the moment a pallet hits receiving to the moment a kit ships.

You’ll inspect and receive incoming materials against purchase orders and certificates of analysis, record lot numbers and expiration dates, and place materials into the correct storage conditions – ambient, refrigerated, or frozen. You’ll run cycle counts, investigate and resolve discrepancies, manage FEFO rotation so nothing expires on the shelf, and control quarantine and released material segregation so nonconforming stock never reaches a build.

You’ll also flag low-stock and expiring materials before they become a production stoppage, and support quality during audits by pulling the records that connect a shipped kit back to every component lot inside it.

Job Requirements

This role rewards people who are systematic and don’t leave loose ends. You should be comfortable in a warehouse environment, confident with inventory software and spreadsheets, and rigorous about the difference between what the system says and what’s actually on the shelf.

Required qualifications:

  • High school diploma or GED; associate degree a plus
  • 2+ years of inventory, warehouse, or materials management experience
  • Experience with lot-controlled or serialized inventory
  • Proficiency with inventory management systems, barcode scanning, and spreadsheets
  • Strong numerical accuracy and comfort performing and reconciling cycle counts
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and operate material handling equipment
  • Willingness to work in refrigerated and frozen storage areas as needed

Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience in a medical device, diagnostics, or pharmaceutical distribution environment
  • Familiarity with FEFO/FIFO rotation and expiration-dated stock control
  • Understanding of quarantine, hold, and material release processes under a quality system
  • Forklift certification
