About Me
I’m Amin Zarifi, an operations and supply chain leader with experience in scaling high-volume e-commerce and fulfillment operations.
My work focuses on operating model design, distribution center operations, dark store operations, inventory accuracy, last-mile governance, cost-per-order optimization, and operational performance management.
Over the years, I have worked on building scalable operating systems, improving fulfillment performance, reducing operational costs, creating KPI dashboards, designing SLA governance with logistics partners, and developing practical tools for large-scale execution.
This site is where I share practical templates, playbooks, frameworks, and lessons learned from real operational execution.
