Position Summary
This role exists to extend consistent systems, processes, and Acumatica proficiency across all Prime Controls warehouse locations — HQ, Red River, and future sites. The Warehouse Systems & Operations Specialist combines deep Acumatica expertise with hands-on warehouse operations experience to train users, clean up data and process gaps, support inventory accuracy, troubleshoot underperforming warehouses, and stand up new warehouse locations from the ground up.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the go-to Acumatica trainer for warehouse staff at HQ, Red River, and other sites — onboarding new users and upskilling existing ones on receiving, put-away, transfers, and inventory transactions.
- Identify and correct data integrity issues in Acumatica (incorrect locations, mismatched cost codes, orphaned transactions, etc.) across warehouses.
- Partner with site leads to standardize how Acumatica is used day-to-day so transactions are consistent and reliable warehouse to warehouse.
Inventory Accuracy & Reporting
- Support and help lead physical inventory counts and cycle counts across sites.
- Build and maintain inventory reporting out of Acumatica for leadership visibility (accuracy rates, discrepancies, aging stock, etc.).
- Investigate and help resolve inventory discrepancies alongside site supervisors.
Warehouse Troubleshooting (“Warehouse Fixer”)
- Travel to underperforming or struggling warehouse locations to diagnose root causes (process, layout, system, or people) and implement corrective action.
- Introduce Prime Controls’ standard SOPs, work instructions, and floor practices to bring outside sites in line with HQ standards.
- Provide interim hands-on leadership/support at a site during a turnaround period, as needed.
New Warehouse Setup
- Lead or support the physical and systems setup of new warehouse locations — layout planning, rack/location numbering, Acumatica configuration, and initial process rollout.
- Establish the site’s initial SOPs, training, and inventory baseline so it launches on Prime Controls standards from day one.
- Transition the site to local leadership once stood up, with documentation in place.
Qualifications
Required
- Advanced proficiency in Acumatica (WMS/ERP).
- Significant hands-on warehouse operations experience (receiving, put-away, inventory control, shipping).
- Demonstrated ability to train others and document process.
- Comfortable working independently across multiple sites with occasional travel.

- Problem solving, decision making, and risk management

- 1-3 years of warehouse or distribution center operations experience
- Proficiency with a warehouse management system such as SAP or Oracle WMS
- Forklift certification or ability to obtain one within 30 days of hire

Tips for Your Warehouse Operations Specialist Job Search
Tailor your resume to WMS platforms
Hiring managers scan for specific warehouse management systems like SAP, Manhattan, or Oracle WMS. Name every platform you've used and note whether you configured it, troubleshot it, or just operated within it. That distinction separates coordinators from specialists.
Quantify throughput and accuracy rates
Generic phrases like 'managed inventory' won't move your resume forward. Replace them with concrete output: units processed per shift, pick accuracy percentages, or how much shrinkage you reduced. Warehouse roles are metric-driven, and your resume should reflect that.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists warehouse operations specialist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter openings by shift and facility type
A fulfillment center for a national retailer operates very differently from a cold-chain distribution hub. When searching, narrow by facility type and shift pattern so you're only applying to environments where your experience directly transfers and your availability actually fits.
Prepare for scenario-based interview questions
Interviewers for these roles frequently ask how you've handled a receiving discrepancy, a staffing shortage mid-shift, or a sudden spike in outbound volume. Prepare two or three specific examples with outcomes, not general descriptions of your responsibilities.
Negotiate total compensation, not just base pay
Warehouse operations roles often include shift differentials, overtime guarantees, and safety bonuses that meaningfully affect your total earnings. Ask about these during the offer conversation rather than focusing only on the hourly or salaried base figure.
Warehouse Operations Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most warehouse operations specialists?
PGL, TikTok, and FedEx Logistics are hiring the most warehouse operations specialists right now, with openings concentrated in Texas, California, and Illinois, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Volume tends to increase around peak retail and holiday fulfillment seasons.
How many warehouse operations specialist jobs are remote?
About 8% of warehouse operations specialist openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most warehouse roles. The sub-areas most likely to offer remote flexibility are inventory analytics, vendor coordination, and operations reporting, where the work can be done off the floor.
How do you become a warehouse operations specialist?
Start by building floor-level experience in receiving, picking, packing, or shipping at a distribution center. Learn at least one warehouse management system on the job or through employer training. Pursue a forklift certification, which most facilities require. Move into coordination or lead roles that give you exposure to scheduling, inventory reconciliation, and carrier management before applying to specialist titles.
Can you get a warehouse operations specialist job with little experience?
Yes, some employers hire candidates with limited direct experience if you can demonstrate familiarity with logistics workflows, basic inventory concepts, and physical readiness for the role. Highlighting any experience with stock management, shipping and receiving, or supply chain coursework helps. Entry-level specialist roles at smaller third-party logistics providers are often the most accessible starting point.
What does the warehouse operations specialist interview process look like?
Most processes start with a phone or video screen focused on your operations background and system experience. A second round typically includes scenario questions about handling discrepancies, managing volume spikes, or coordinating with carriers. Some employers add a facility walkthrough or a brief skills assessment covering inventory procedures. References and a background check usually close out the process before an offer is extended.
Where can I find and apply to warehouse operations specialist jobs?
You can find and apply to warehouse operations specialist jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience, shift preferences, and location, then apply directly to each one that fits.
