Company Overview
Metrea delivers effects-as-a-service to national security partners across five domains and more than a dozen mission areas—including airborne ISR, electronic warfare, secure communications, aerial refueling, special mission aviation, aerial firefighting, and advanced simulation.
Wherever we operate, we build vertically integrated full stacks of capability—designing, building, and operating turnkey solutions that let customers scale capacity while benefiting from continuous cycles of innovation. With operators and engineers under one roof, we close the gap between lab and field—what we call connecting design with effect.
Metrea’s solutions are built for elegance: effective, efficient, and evolving. This approach enables our partners to do more with less and achieve outsized, asymmetric advantage against rapidly evolving threats.
Headquartered in Washington, DC, Metrea has facilities across the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond.
This role sits within the Supply Chain and Logistics Capability Area of Metrea. The Supply Chain and Logistics Capability Area is responsible to ensure the seamless, cost-effective, and timely delivery of materials, parts, and equipment in support of operational readiness and mission success through compliant integrated logistics, forward looking strategic procurement, inventory and pool management, and exceptional customer service across enterprise operations.
Special Air Missions Group (SAM) is responsible for developing and delivering Metrea’s Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Special Mobility, and Aerial Firefighting (AFF) capabilities. SAM oversees the integration of new mission systems, ensuring operational readiness across specialized aviation operations. It manages fleet maintenance, regulatory compliance, and strategic partnerships to enhance mission effectiveness. By consolidating expertise and infrastructure, SAM ensures Metrea’s airborne capabilities remain adaptable and mission-ready across dynamic operational environments.
The Digital and Synthetic Capability Unit (D&S) is committed to providing mission-driven information solutions that seamlessly bridge the digital and physical realms. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies and advanced platforms, we empower operational readiness and elevate situational awareness across diverse domains—including air, maritime, and space.
Air Mobility Group (AIRMOB) is responsible for developing and delivering Metrea’s aerial refueling (AAR) capabilities, ensuring the readiness and operational effectiveness of the tanker fleet. AIRMOB oversees fleet management, maintenance, and airworthiness, working to sustain and enhance refueling operations. It manages the integration of new processes and technologies, ensuring that tanker aircraft remain mission-ready through effective logistics, maintenance oversight, and regulatory compliance. By coordinating across various teams, AIRMOB ensures the fleet meets both current and future operational needs, supporting a range of specialized air mobility missions.
Electromagnetic and Cyber Group (EM&C) is responsible for developing flexible and survivable advanced electronic warfare and secure communications equipment while providing the industry’s leading signals intelligence, electronic warfare, and cyber experts. Metrea specializes in signal classification, direction finding, advanced geolocation techniques, and waveform development including waveforms for MANET and LPI/LPD applications. Metrea also develops special purpose radios for government customers and licenses DF and geolocation solutions to multiple OEMs.
Aerospace Engineering Group (AERO) provides an integrated, end-to-end capability for the rapid modification and fielding of mission-specific aircraft. The Airborne Asset Adaptation (A3) Cell acts as the central command and coordination hub, managing requirements and external interfaces from inception to operational delivery. Specialized technical execution is delivered by the Aircraft Integration Centre (AIC), a Part 145 facility focused on airframe modification, and Aerospace Design (ASD), which provides organic design engineering and FAA-authorized certification. Collectively, these elements bridge the gap between initial requirements and the deployment of flight-certified, mission-ready assets.
Position Summary
At Metrea, mission success depends on the seamless movement of material, equipment, and capability across a complex, global operating environment. We don’t just deliver aircraft and advanced capabilities—we ensure the right parts, materials, and logistics solutions are in place to sustain them anywhere in the world.
Our Air Domain spans Airborne ISR, Aerial Firefighting, Air-to-Air Refueling, Advanced Training, and Aircraft Engineering—operating across FAA, EASA, and CASA regulatory frameworks. Supporting these operations requires a highly coordinated, responsive, and globally integrated supply chain.
As we continue to expand operations, we are seeking a Supply Chain & Logistics Business Partner at our Tampa, FL Aircraft Integration Center location to serve as the critical link between program (“file”) operations and global supply chain leadership.
This is a highly strategic and operational role—responsible for aligning logistics, site resourcing and deployer rotations, inventory, maintenance support, distribution and logistics activities with file priorities while ensuring compliance, efficiency, and readiness across all sites and regions.
Reporting the Head of Global Supply Chain and Logistics, this role will act as the connective tissue between the file and leaders of the capabilities within Supply Chain and Logistics which is comprised of Global Logistics & Customs, Global Procurement, and Global Inventory & Distribution—executing strategy, anticipating file needs, driving visibility of and solving for file needs, coordination, communication, and execution across the supply chain.
This is not a traditional planning and logistics role—it is an opportunity to influence, integrate, and enable mission-critical operations in a fast-scaling, multinational environment.
