Position Summary

We are seeking a Logistics Director to manage the global supply chain and drive delivery of equipment to our military customers worldwide. This is a high-impact, executive-level role designed for a professional with deep military and operational credibility. Reporting directly to our internal Strategic Initiatives Group, you will provide strategic direction for complex logistics pipelines supporting diverse, geographically separated organizations.

In this capacity, you will serve as the central authority over internal supply chains, directing subsidiary logistics leads to ensure their operations prioritize and fully support the broader mission sets required by the Strategic Group. You will be responsible for aligning these subsidiaries, overcoming logistical bottlenecks, and ensuring our military customers receive their equipment seamlessly, no matter where it is located globally.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

  • Executive Leadership & Operational Planning: Serve as a principal advisor on senior executive staffs, providing subject matter expertise for all logistical programs, budgets, and contracts. Represent the company at the highest levels of government and defense to align global distribution operations with specific allied and partner requirements.
Required Qualifications
  • Military Logistics Expertise: Minimum of 10+ years of military experience strictly focused on senior-level logistics, supply chain execution, and executive operations.
  • FMS Mastery: Comprehensive, applied knowledge of Foreign Military Sales (FMS) and security cooperation, with a track record of implementing complex security assistance portfolios.
  • Core Supply Management: Deep technical understanding of property accountability, export compliance, international shipping regulations, and life cycle asset management.
  • Authoritative Leadership: Proven ability to operate with professional humility while demonstrating the autonomy and authority to direct subsidiary efforts, execute senior leadership intent, and coordinate with diverse DoD elements.
  • Strategic Communication: Demonstrated ability to gain access to and influence military installations, Defense Attachés, senior government leaders, and foreign partners.
Physical Requirements and Working Conditions
  • Must be able to walk, stand, and navigate large indoor and outdoor facilities for extended periods of time.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
