This role is the physical backbone of the materials and production planning function — responsible for the movement, staging, and storage of materials between receiving, warehouse storage areas, and the production floor. Where the Shipping & Receiving Clerk owns the dock and inbound documentation, the Material Handler owns what happens next: getting materials from storage to where they are needed, when they are needed, in the correct quantity and condition to support uninterrupted production. In a defense energetics manufacturing environment, this role demands strict adherence to explosive material handling protocols, lot traceability requirements, and safety procedures at every step of the material movement process. In this role, the essential functions are: Move materials from the receiving area to designated warehouse storage locations following established put-away procedures, bin assignments, and lot/serial tracking requirements. Stage materials, components, and kitted parts to production floor work centers in alignment with work order schedules and production priorities communicated by the planning team. Pull materials against work orders and bill of materials (BOM) requirements; confirm quantity, lot number, and part number accuracy before staging to production — do not stage unverified materials. Coordinate with the Shipping & Receiving Clerk on inbound material handoff after receiving inspection clearance; coordinate with the Quality Senior Receiving Technician on material inspection status before moving materials into active inventory. Return unused, excess, or rejected materials to the correct storage location or quarantine area; update ERP/MRP system (NetSuite) inventory transactions accurately for all movements. Operate forklift, pallet jack, and other material handling equipment safely and in compliance with site safety requirements; maintain equipment in good working order and report deficiencies immediately. Maintain organized, clean, and compliant storage areas — including energetics storage locations — in accordance with ATF, OSHA, and site safety requirements for explosive material storage and handling. Support cycle counting and physical inventory activities by accurately counting, confirming, and recording inventory quantities in designated locations. Identify and immediately escalate damaged, non-conforming, or mislabeled materials to the Materials & Logistics Coordinator or planning team — do not move suspect materials without authorization. Maintain lot and serial number traceability throughout all material movements; ensure no material is staged or issued to production without proper ERP system transaction documentation. Follow all Division 1.1 explosives handling protocols, PPE requirements, and site safety procedures at all times when working near or handling energetic materials.
