ShipMonk isn't just a 3PL — we're the tech-powered growth partner for ecommerce brands, running 12+ owned fulfillment centers across the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe so our merchants can stress less and grow more.
The role
ShipMonk moves a lot of inventory through a lot of fulfillment centers, and the operations team makes decisions every day about capacity, labor, and throughput. Your job is to make sure those decisions are backed by data instead of gut feel.
You'll join the operations analytics team and own the analyses that shape how we run fulfillment. This is a senior seat. You won't just build dashboards, you'll decide what's worth measuring, find the problems hiding in the data, and tell operations leaders what to do about them.
What you'll own
The numbers behind fulfillment decisions. You build and own the dashboards and KPIs that operations leaders use to run the business. When throughput drops or labor cost spikes, you're the one who explains why.
The analysis that finds problems early. You dig into the data to spot trends and inefficiencies before they become expensive, then bring a clear recommendation, not just a chart.
Models that support planning. You help build the forecasts and capacity models that feed operational plans and budgets.
The story for stakeholders. You turn complex analysis into something an operations VP can act on in five minutes.
What you bring
- 3+ years in supply chain analytics, operations analysis, or capacity and fulfillment management
- Strong skills in Excel and a BI tool (we use Metabase and Tableau; Power BI experience transfers fine)
- The ability to turn messy operational data into a clear recommendation
- Comfort working directly with operations teams, not just sending reports over the wall
- Experience with statistical modeling is a plus, especially for forecasting and capacity work
What success looks like in year one
- The operations team relies on your dashboards to make weekly decisions
- You've identified at least one process improvement that showed up in real cost or throughput numbers
- Your forecasts are accurate enough that planning leans on them
- Stakeholders come to you for the answer, not just the data
