About the role

Logistics Manager for a remote/Anywhere role focused on end-to-end international logistics, customs, and commercial collaboration to move parts globally for a hardware/manufacturing platform.

Responsibilities

  • Own international freight across air, ocean, and courier — primarily from Asia to Israel, the US, and the EU.
  • Quote, negotiate, and book shipments with global freight leaders alongside a growing supplier-side network.
  • Manage freight cost recovery from buyers and dispute surcharges with forwarders.
  • Own customs and trade compliance end-to-end — set strategy, build playbooks, guide the Logistics Admin.
  • Be the in-house expert on HTS classification, exclusion claims, CBP/Form 28 responses, IOR/bill-to/ship-to logic, and customs holds.
  • Maintain annual compliance setup (bonding, surety documentation, supplier KYC) across jurisdictions.
  • Sit in commercial conversations with Sales on landed cost, Incoterms, and pricing structure to protect margin.
  • Build and maintain freight-cost intelligence by lane and supplier.
  • Ensure freight and logistics costs are reflected in internal systems (order book, margin view, customer invoices).
  • Translate operational decisions into customer-facing communication during delays or issues.
  • Coordinate daily with manufacturing partners on shipment readiness, packing, documentation, and pickup windows.
  • Manage the day-to-day Logistics Coordinator function and escalate to Supply Chain Manager as needed.
  • Act as the preferred partner for suppliers—fast, clear, fair.
  • Push the platform as the single source of shipment status, documentation, and cost; identify recurring problems and build playbooks; where sensible, automate after manual validation.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on international logistics or freight-forwarding experience, ideally in contract manufacturing, hardware, or high-mix industrial setting.
  • Proven experience negotiating freight rates with forwarders and couriers, with at least one example of a significant cost impact.
  • Experience with HTS codes, commercial invoices, packing lists, IORs, bonds, CBP correspondence.
  • Understanding of landed cost, Incoterms, margin, and customer experience in freight context.
  • Ability to read PDF engineering drawings to assess shipping implications.
  • Clear, direct, action-oriented communication; ability to write customer-facing escalation messages.
  • Comfort with a fast-moving startup environment and high-stakes shipment situations.
  • Fluency in English; Hebrew, Mandarin, Vietnamese, or German is a bonus.
  • Tech-savvy and comfortable with remote, async tools (Slack, Notion, Loom, and manufacturing platform).
