Logistics Coordinator

What you’ll do

Giga Energy is seeking a hands-on Global Logistics Coordinator to support our international supply chain. You'll own the day-to-day execution that ensures materials, components and finished products move seamlessly across our global network. The position blends operational execution and strategic business decisions by managing ocean and trucking carriers, import and export coordination, terminal relationships, 3PLs, and customs brokers while ensuring compliance across the full process. You’ll partner closely with our manufacturing, sales, and project delivery teams to ensure our supply chain supports Giga’s rapid growth in the data center sector.

Where you’ll work

We are an in-office culture — velocity matters when you're building physical infrastructure, and the best decisions happen in the room. This role is ideally based in our San Francisco, Long Beach, or Houston offices, with full-time onsite expectations outside of bi-weekly WFH Fridays.

That said, we will make exceptions for truly exceptional talent if you live outside one of our hubs. If you're the right person for this role, we'll have a conversation about what works.
