Supply Chain Compliance Project Manager

About the Job

<sup>The Supply Chain Compliance Project Manager builds and maintains the compliance infrastructure that allows our supply chain to operate in a defense environment. This role translates complex regulatory requirements—FAR/DFARS, ITAR, export controls, and customer flow-downs—into clear, executable processes that withstand internal audits, customer scrutiny, and government review.

You'll own compliance workstreams from identification through remediation—conducting gap assessments, mapping compliance touchpoints across procurement and manufacturing workflows, developing compliant processes and documentation standards, and driving accountability through implementation. This isn't a policy writing role. You'll work directly with Procurement, Quality, Program Management, and Operations teams to ensure compliance is embedded into how we actually work, not just how we say we work.

The Compliance Analyst partners with Supply Chain leadership, Legal, Contracts, and cross-functional stakeholders to transform regulatory obligations into documented, auditable, and repeatable business processes. You'll build the systems that prove compliance—including compliance matrices, control documentation, training materials, and audit readiness packages.

This role requires someone who is methodical, detail-oriented, and persistent about closing gaps. You need to understand that compliance without consistent execution is just paperwork, and you should be comfortable translating regulatory language into operational guidance that people can actually follow.</sup>

What You’ll Do

• Develop, document, and maintain supply chain compliance processes and standard work that translate regulatory requirements into executable workflows.
• Translate regulatory and contractual requirements into clear, actionable workflows.
• Support audit readiness by ensuring documentation, traceability, and evidence are complete and accessible.
• Identify process gaps, inconsistencies, or control weaknesses and drive corrective actions to closure.
• Partner with Procurement, Quality, Manufacturing, and Engineering to embed compliant processes into daily operations.
• Track compliance issues and corrective actions, ensuring timely and thorough resolution.
• Support internal reviews, customer audits, and government assessments (e.g., DCMA, CPSR readiness).
• Maintain process documentation, desk guides, and training materials to improve consistency across teams.
• Analyze data and workflows to identify trends, risks, and improvement opportunities.
• Help establish repeatable operating rhythms and mechanisms that reinforce compliance.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Business, Engineering, or a related field.
• 4+ years of experience in supply chain, procurement, operations, compliance, or a related function.

• Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain high-quality documentation.
• Ability to identify gaps and drive issues through to resolution.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to operate independently and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in aerospace, defense, or another regulated industry.
• Familiarity with FAR/DFARS or related compliance frameworks.
• Experience supporting audits, CPSR readiness, or internal compliance reviews.

• Experience working with supplier documentation, traceability, or material compliance.

What Success Looks Like

• Processes are clearly documented, adopted, and consistently followed.
