About this role

CANDIDATES MUST RESIDE WITHIN DRIVING DISTANCE TO CORPORATE OFFICE LOCATED in FREMONT, CA TO BE CONSIDERED

Position Summary 

Optoma is a global leader in projection and display technology, with a supply chain spanning Taiwan, China, and North America. This role sits at the intersection of demand forecasting, supply execution, and go-to-market strategy — giving you end-to-end visibility into how a hardware business actually runs. If you want to learn fast and own real work from day one, this is the role.

You'll be part of a collaborative global planning team, working closely with Product, Marketing, Sales, and regional supply partners. The matrix structure is intentional: it's how you build the cross-functional instincts that accelerate your career.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

The essential functions include, but are not limited to the following:

    Own global sales forecast accumulation and drive consensus across regional teams 

    Coordinate global supply signals and manage inventory risk throughout the product lifecycle 

    Monitor and manage 3PL warehouse replenishment to maintain optimal stock positioning

    Support S&OP cycle execution and flag risks before they become problems 

    Build business analysis and reporting that connects planning decisions to P&L outcomes 

    Identify process inefficiencies and propose solutions — your ideas will actually get implemented 

    Partner with Product and Marketing to align supply plans with go-to-market execution 

    Support cost control initiatives across procurement, freight, and inventory

    Any other duties assigned by the manager.

Minimum Qualifications (Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities)

    Bachelor's degree in Business, Supply Chain, Operations, Economics, or a related field 

    Understanding of end-to-end supply chain — from upstream procurement through downstream fulfillment 

    Strong Excel skills; comfort with large datasets and building your own models 

    Clear communicator across functions and seniority levels, written and verbal 

    Analytical and organized — you enjoy digging into numbers to find the story 

    Self-starter who takes initiative rather than waiting for direction 

    1–2 years in supply chain, planning, or operations is preferred but not required
