Monitor and interpret regulatory updates, including HTS revisions, Explanatory Notes, and WCO classification decisions
Participate in classification audits and respond to CBP inquiries, CF-28s, and CF-29s, as required
What we would like you to bring

3+ years of experience in customs classification, brokerage, or trade compliance
U.S. Customs Broker License required
