Join the Sterling Engineering team!

We’re seeking a Logistics Process Associate to design, optimize, and implement warehouse and material-flow processes that keep manufacturing running smoothly. This role sits at the center of operations, warehouse, and digital systems, ensuring that materials move accurately, efficiently, and compliantly from the central warehouse into manufacturing nodes.

If you enjoy process design, logistics workflow development, SAP/EWM system integration, and supporting manufacturing readiness in a highly regulated environment—this role offers a unique blend of engineering, supply chain, and digital operations.

What You’ll Do
  • Develop, improve, and execute kitting and material transfer workflows between the warehouse and manufacturing areas.
  • Partner with manufacturing, operations, and scheduling teams to ensure JIT supply within node storage capacities.
  • Create SOPs, work instructions, and process documentation supporting warehouse activities.
  • Support CQV (Commissioning, Qualification, Validation) for new or modified processes, equipment, and systems.
  • Ensure compliance with GMP, safety, regulatory, and environmental standards.
  • Integrate digital tools (SAP/EWM, MES, Tulip) to enable paperless, automated material movement and inventory tracking.
  • Define user requirements for SAP/EWM, troubleshoot system issues, and support validation of interfaces.
  • Train warehouse teams on SAP/EWM processes related to kitting and material transfer.
  • Monitor outbound shipping requests and analyze data to identify delays, trends, and improvement opportunities.
  • Lead root cause investigations, corrective actions, change controls, and continuous improvement initiatives.
What You Bring
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations, or related field.
  • Experience in GMP-regulated environments, warehousing, kitting, material flow, or logistics process development.
  • Hands-on experience with SAP/EWM and familiarity with MES.
  • Understanding of CQV documentation and validation requirements.
  • 3–5 years designing, optimizing, or overseeing material flow through multiple process steps.
