Job Summary
Purple is seeking an Amazon Supply Chain & Inventory Manager to own end-to-end Amazon marketplace inventory operations as we scale our presence on the platform. This role is directly accountable for FBA replenishment planning, demand forecasting, in-stock rate performance, and out-of-stock risk mitigation across Purple’s mattress and pillow assortment. Reporting to the Director of Marketplaces with a strong dotted line to Logistics and Supply Chain, this person serves as the critical bridge between Purple’s internal operations and Amazon’s fulfilment network.
Essential Duties & Responsibilities:
Amazon Inventory & Replenishment Management
Own FBA replenishment planning end-to-end, including shipment creation, inbound routing, and fulfilment center placement, while monitoring daily in-stock rates by ASIN and proactively resolving out-of-stock risks before they impact sales.
Manage Amazon storage limits, IPI score health, and stranded inventory to optimize FBA capacity and avoid long-term storage fees; determine and maintain appropriate safety stock levels by SKU based on lead times, sales velocity, and seasonal demand patterns.
Required Skills, Education, Experience:
Demand Planning & Forecasting
Build and maintain ASIN-level demand forecasts using Amazon sales data, seasonality trends, promotional calendars, and new product launch timelines.
Supply Chain Coordination (Dotted Line to Logistics & Supply Chain)
Serve as the primary Amazon inventory liaison to Purple's Logistics and Supply Chain team — communicating reorder triggers and urgency levels proactively, escalating supply constraints before they become OOS events, and ensuring inbound lead times are accurately reflected in replenishment planning.
Build and maintain dashboards tracking key Amazon inventory KPIs: in-stock rate, weeks of cover, restock lag, OOS frequency, and sell-through rate and provide weekly inventory health reporting.
Voice of Customer & NCX Monitoring
Distinguish preference/expectation-based return drivers from product defect signals, maintain a running NCX risk tracker, and include findings in weekly inventory health reporting to eCommerce and Supply Chain leadership.
Required Skills, Education, Experience:
Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management, Business, Operations, or a related field; equivalent work experience considered.
Deep fluency in Amazon Seller Central: shipment workflows, restock recommendations, inventory performance tools, and FBA fee structures
Familiarity with inventory planning tools (e.g., Inventory Lab, SPS Commerce, Cin7, NetSuite, or similar) is a plus.
