I run a growing Amazon reselling business specializing in tools and home-improvement products. We currently source heavily from one supplier and are expanding our Home Depot sourcing—particularly for Ryobi and RIDGID products.
I am looking for an **experienced full-time Amazon product sourcer** who can help us identify profitable, scalable, and replenishable opportunities.
This is **not an entry-level position**. You must already understand Amazon OA or wholesale sourcing, Keepa, SellerAmp, profit calculations, sales velocity, and competition analysis.
## Main Responsibilities
* Source profitable products from Home Depot and Direct Tools
* Focus primarily on Ryobi and RIDGID products
* Analyze Keepa charts, pricing history, Buy Box behavior, and seller counts
* Estimate monthly sales and our realistic share of those sales
* Calculate Amazon fees, shipping, profit, margin, and ROI accurately
* Research competitor storefronts and reverse-source promising ASINs
* Monitor Home Depot and Direct Tools promotions, coupons, bundles, free-tool offers, clearance deals, and restocks
* Find replenishable opportunities—not just temporary clearance products
* Investigate kits, bundles, multipacks, and product variations
* Maintain a detailed and organized sourcing spreadsheet
* Recheck promising leads and communicate findings clearly
## What I Am Looking For
We am **not** looking for filler leads, tiny opportunities, or surface-level sourcing.
We want:
* Scalable products
* Strong profit per unit
* Meaningful monthly sales volume
* Stable pricing
* Manageable competition
* Repeatable or replenishable opportunities
* Detailed research and honest risk analysis
Some days you may find only a few leads. That is completely fine if those leads are strong. One great replenishable lead can generate thousands of dollars in revenue and profit over time.
**Quality matters more than lead quantity.**
## Required Skills
* Previous Amazon OA or wholesale product-sourcing experience
* Strong Keepa knowledge, including knowledge of how to use Keepa Product Finder
* Strong SellerAmp knowledge
* Accurate profit, margin, and ROI calculations
* Ability to interpret sales rank and estimate sales velocity
* Strong competition and listing analysis
* Experience with supplier and reverse sourcing
* Excellent written and spoken English
* Organized and detail-oriented
* Reliable, self-motivated, and consistent
* Strong communication skills
Experience sourcing from **Home Depot,Ryobi, RIDGID, power tools, or outdoor power equipment** is highly preferred.
## Major Additional Advantages
The following will make an applicant stand out significantly:
* Experience finding manufacturers, distributors, and wholesale suppliers
* Experience using SmartScout
* Experience contacting brands and distributors through
* Experience opening wholesale accounts and following up with suppliers
* Experience negotiating pricing, minimum orders, payment terms, or product lists
* Experience obtaining legitimate invoices for Amazon approval applications
* Successful experience with Amazon brand or category ungating
* Experience ungating tool brands such as **DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, or Bosch**
* Strong technical skills, including advanced Google Sheets or Excel, formulas, data extraction, automation, APIs, or basic scripting
* Experience using ChatGPT or Claude effectively for research, data organization, outreach, and workflow improvement
The immediate priority is sourcing profitable Ryobi and RIDGID products from Home Depot and Direct Tools. However, someone who can also develop wholesale relationships, assist with supplier outreach, and help us expand into additional tool brands will have greater responsibility and growth potential.
## Schedule and Compensation
* Full-time
* Approximately 8 hours per day
* 6 days per week
* Flexible working hours
* Reliable daily communication required
* $4 per hour base pay
* Performance bonuses for profitable sourcing results
* Long-term growth and earning potential for high performers
Results, consistency, and communication matter most.
## Training
You must already have sourcing experience, but we will work closely together during the first few weeks to align on our buying criteria, sourcing strategy, and preferred opportunities.
There will likely be regular Zoom calls initially while we refine the process.
## How to Apply
At the very top of your application, write:
**RYOBI PROFIT HUNTER**
Then answer every question below:
1. How long have you worked in Amazon OA or wholesale sourcing?
2. Which suppliers and websites have you sourced from?
3. Have you sourced from Home Depot or Direct Tools before?
4. Have you sourced Ryobi, RIDGID, power tools, or outdoor power equipment?
5. Explain how you evaluate a Keepa chart before recommending a purchase.
6. Provide two or three examples of strong leads you previously found. Remove confidential information, but include the purchase price, expected sale price, profit, ROI, estimated monthly sales, and why each lead was strong.
7. How do you estimate how many units we could realistically sell when several sellers are already on a listing?
8. What would make you reject a product even if SellerAmp showed a good ROI?
9. Describe any experience finding and contacting wholesale suppliers or opening wholesale accounts.
10. Have you successfully helped an Amazon seller become ungated? If yes, explain the brands or categories, supplier used, documents submitted, whether the application was approved, and your role. Experience with DeWalt or Makita is a major plus.
11. Describe your technical skills, including spreadsheets, automation, data extraction, APIs, scripting, ChatGPT, or Claude.
12. Include a short voice recording or Loom video introducing yourself and explaining one sourcing opportunity you previously found.
13. Why would you be a strong fit for this position?
Applications that do not include **RYOBI PROFIT HUNTER** and complete answers will not be considered.
I am looking for someone who genuinely enjoys sourcing, digging deeply into products, and finding opportunities that can meaningfully grow a business. This is intended to be a long-term position for the right person.
