Full Job Description

Company Overview

Nanoscience Instruments specializes in the sale and servicing of advanced scientific instrumentation utilized by universities, research institutions, startups, government agencies, and military laboratories. Our diverse portfolio includes electron microscopes, scanning probe microscopes, optical microscopes, and material analysis systems. We foster an informal yet professional environment supported by a team with strong engineering and scientific backgrounds.

About Logistics at Nanoscience Instruments

The Logistics department at Nanoscience Instruments plays a critical role in coordinating the movement of highly specialized scientific instruments and components between our European manufacturing partners, our logistics depot in Arizona, our support office in Virginia, and laboratories across North America.

This role sits at the center of a dynamic international supply chain that supports cutting-edge research and industry. As Logistics Manager, you will oversee the systems and processes that ensure our instruments move efficiently from factory to laboratory while maintaining the precision, care, and reliability required for advanced scientific equipment.

You will work closely with a diverse group of colleagues across the company—including scientists who sell and support the instruments, engineers who install and service them, and operations teams who ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. At the same time, you will interact with customers using these instruments in a wide range of applications such as academic research, nanomaterial manufacturing, forensics, failure analysis, and industrial quality control.

Because our instruments are sophisticated and often custom-configured, logistics at Nanoscience is far from routine. Each shipment requires coordination across suppliers, service teams, customs, and customers to ensure equipment arrives safely, on time, and ready for installation.
