@eliasarce
Supply chain analyst with 4+ years optimizing inventory, cross-border imports, and logistics operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Supply Chain Analyst focused on inventory planning, cross-border logistics, and distribution operations, bringing 4+ years of hands-on coordination across Mexico–US flows. At Walmart Mexico, I manage import flow for 100+ perishable SKUs and work to protect supply continuity through proactive logistics risk identification.
I thrive at the intersection of operations and analytics. I coordinate cross-functional teams using Excel-based analytics and ERP reporting to monitor shipment status, align stakeholders, and maintain supply chain resilience across international suppliers, customs, and distribution centers.
Previously, I planned optimal inventory levels for a 100+ SKU portfolio across a U.S. retail network, coordinating purchase orders, supplier communications, and shipment execution through ERP systems and demand analysis. Earlier, as a Logistics Coordinator, I handled domestic and international shipments, resolved delivery delays via root cause analysis, and strengthened on-time delivery through clear stakeholder communication.
I bring advanced Excel capability (Pivot Tables, VLOOKUP, dashboards, data analysis), familiarity with ERP systems including SAP and INFOR, and experience with WMS/TMS reporting. I’m looking for roles where I can combine data-driven decision-making with import/export operations to improve reliability, forecasting, and end-to-end execution.
