The engine of this firm is vendor-bench diligence: a US buyer hands us a list of suppliers and we produce a documented, defensible answer about where their hardware actually comes from. This role runs those reviews.
It is the best seat in the building for learning a regime while it is being written.
What you would do
- Run Gatewell Protocol Level 1 and Level 2 vendor reviews: documentary review, independent supplier confirmations, and the evidence file behind each conclusion.
- Trace bill-of-materials origin to component level and flag concentration by country, by value and by volume.
- Screen entities against the UFLPA Entity List, the FCC Covered List, and OFAC/SDN, and document what you found and what you could not find.
- Watch the register. Grants, public notices, and revocation orders publish continuously, and someone has to read all of them.
- Write the client-facing memo. Our deliverable is a document, so the writing is the work.
Who this is for
- Two to five years in trade compliance, supply-chain analysis, export controls, audit, or investigations. Customs brokerage, Big Four compliance, and forensic accounting backgrounds all transfer well.
- You are comfortable concluding "the evidence does not support this" and defending it. Half of diligence is being willing to write the unwelcome sentence.
- You are organized about sourcing. Every claim we publish has to be traceable to where it came from.
- Mandarin, Korean, or Japanese reading ability is a real plus — much of the primary documentation is not in English.
Compensation and location
- $85,000 to $110,000, depending on experience. Reading ability in Mandarin, Korean, or Japanese is paid at the upper end.
- Full-time, in-house. Los Angeles or remote within the US.
We screen every engagement and every hire against OFAC/SDN, and we do not take PRC-nexus work.
