• Operations Partnership: Partner with Supply Chain and Retail Operations to optimize the WMS (RF-Smart) and Product Lifecycle Management (WFX) systems.

• Lean Department Building: Manage and mentor a highly targeted team of elite individual contributors, starting with a dedicated NetSuite Administrator / Integrations Engineer.
