About the role
Supply Chain Associate | Nox Metals | Ferndale, MI
About Nox Metals. American factories deserve a supply chain that moves as fast as they do. Nox Metals is building it, along with the tools that run it. We're a technology company in Ferndale, Michigan supplying aluminum plate, bar, and rounds to aerospace and defense manufacturers. We use software and automation to supply metal to American factories faster than the industry thought possible.
The role. Nox Metals supplies cut-to-size metal to aerospace, defense, and industrial manufacturers. We're looking for a Supply Chain Associate to buy material we don't have, fast, for jobs we want to win.
A large share of what sales quotes isn't on our floor. You are the broker between our sales team and the metals market: quote it the same day, buy it the hour we win, truck it in, and land it on our dock before anyone asks where it is. You will work closely with sales, supply chain, finance, operations, and the engineers building Nox's quoting and purchasing tools.
Success looks like. Same-business-day MSR-to-quote time, same-day award-to-PO time, on-time delivery to the dock date you gave operations, sales won on your quoting, purchases made below par, and new suppliers onboarded.
You will
- Be a metals market broker
- Turn material sourcing requests (MSRs) into supplier quotes the same day: phone and email the supply base in parallel, and follow up until you have a number
- Price every quote on landed $/lb (material, freight, cut charges, lead time) against our par price and tell sales what the job can bear
- Write purchase orders the day we win and see them through: acknowledgments, ship dates, substitutions, split heats
- Book trucks (LTL, flatbed, dedicated), chase BOLs, and give operations a dock date before the truck leaves the supplier
- Land material with certs matched to heat numbers, entered in Praetorian and NOX Nest, DFARS-traceable
- Buy ahead when the price is below par: others' incoming stock, mill overruns, surplus lots
- Own every supplier relationship; onboard new sources, alloys, and regions
- Work with the software team to make the quoting, PO, and inventory tools faster
- Complete other duties as assigned
You are
- Someone who picks up the phone and keeps calling until there's a number
- Precise on the spec: alloy, temper, AMS/ASTM, tolerance, origin. 6061-T6 and 6061-T651 are not the same thing
- Fast with landed cost, yield, and margin in your head
- Software-focused: you live in the tools and get them fixed rather than work around them
- Comfortable being timed. Every MSR, PO, and truck is on the scoreboard
Nice to have
- Metals purchasing at a service center, or work as a broker
- Fast-turn buying anywhere the clock matters
- Freight and BOL experience
- DFARS and mill-cert handling
- Experience with ERP or MRP systems
- Experience with constrained optimization
- Experience with pricing and quote economics
Pay and benefits
- $60,000 to $70,000 salary, based on experience
- Equity in Nox Metals
- Company-paid medical, dental, and vision insurance
This role is full time and in person in Ferndale, MI.
