Job Description

Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR) powers the industries of today and tomorrow by connecting the people with big ideas to the manufacturers who can bring them to life. Xometry’s digital marketplace gives manufacturers the critical resources they need to grow their business while also making it easy for buyers at Fortune 1000 companies to tap into global manufacturing capacity.

Xometry is seeking a high-caliber, strategic leader to serve as Vice President, Global Logistics and Customs. As we continue to scale our global marketplace, the complexity of moving parts across borders requires a visionary who can balance lightning-fast delivery with rigorous cost management and 100% regulatory compliance.

You will be the architect of Xometry’s future carrier network, ensuring we provide end-to-end visibility for every shipment—from a local machine shop to an international enterprise customer. Your mission is simple but challenging: make our logistics faster, more reliable, and more cost-effective than ever before.

Responsibilities:

Strategic Network Development

Future-Proofing the Network: Design and execute a multi-year global logistics roadmap that anticipates Xometry’s growth and shifting manufacturing hubs.
Carrier Management: Identify, negotiate, and manage strategic partnerships with global, regional, and last-mile carriers to ensure redundant and resilient capacity.
Optimization: Relentlessly pursue the "least cost to customer" model without compromising on speed or reliability.

Global Trade & Customs Compliance

100% Compliance: Act as the final authority on global, regional, and local trade regulations, ensuring all cross-border movements adhere to ITA, EAR, OFAC, and international equivalents.
Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify and resolve potential customs bottlenecks, tariff impacts, and trade barriers.
Audit & Governance: Establish robust internal controls and auditing processes for classifications, duties, and documentation.

End-to-End Visibility & Analytics

Data-Driven Leadership: Implement and oversee global logistics technology stacks to provide real-time visibility into shipment status and landed costs.
KPI Ownership: Define and report on North Star metrics including On-Time Delivery (OTD), Cost per Shipment, Transit Time, and Compliance accuracy.
Cost Transparency: Build models that provide the business and our customers with granular visibility into logistics spend.

Qualifications:

12+ years of progressive leadership in global logistics, freight forwarding, or supply chain, ideally within a high-growth marketplace or manufacturing environment.
Deep functional knowledge of international trade law, HSS/HTS classification, and global customs brokerage management.
Proven track record of negotiating high-value contracts with major global carriers and 3PLs.
Comfortable working with Product and Engineering teams to integrate logistics data into a digital marketplace platform.
A leader who can pivot from a board-room strategy to solving a critical customs delay in a high-stakes moment.

The estimated base salary range for new hires into this role is $223,000 - $250,000 annually + bonus depending on factors such as job-related skills, relevant experience, and location. We also offer a competitive benefits package, including 401(k) match, medical, dental and vision insurance; life and disability insurance; generous paid time off including vacation, sick leave, floating and fixed holidays, maternity and bonding leave; EAP, other wellbeing resources; and much more.
