About the role

Role focused on sourcing strategy and management of capital equipment for Fluidstack's build program, including competitive sourcing, contract negotiation, CapEx planning collaboration with Finance, and cost reduction through standardization and dual-sourcing.

Responsibilities

  • Own sourcing strategy for capital equipment across the build program, from long-lead power and cooling equipment to modular structures, with total cost of ownership models that hold up against supplier pushback.
  • Run competitive sourcing events for capital packages, evaluating suppliers on price, capacity, lead time, warranty, and financial health, and carry each award through to contract signature.
  • Negotiate and execute capital equipment agreements, framework agreements, and pricing amendments, coordinating with Legal and Finance on payment milestones, warranties, liquidated damages, and escalation terms.
  • Partner with Finance on CapEx planning, tracking committed spend against budget and forecasting cash flow from award to delivery.
  • Deliver cost reduction through standardization, demand aggregation across sites, and volume agreements, and build dual-source plans that close out single-source risk on critical capital equipment.

Qualifications

  • You've sourced and negotiated high-value capital equipment or construction packages, backed by total cost of ownership models that survive supplier pushback.
  • You've structured capital contracts with milestone payments, warranties, liquidated damages, and escalation terms, and managed them through delivery.
  • You've partnered with Finance on CapEx budgets and cash flow forecasts, and you can show the savings you delivered against them.
  • You've run RFI, RFQ, and RFP processes end to end, from supplier qualification through contract signature.
  • You track supplier performance with scorecards spanning quality, on-time delivery, and cost, and you act on the data before a slip reaches the schedule.
  • You've worked inside ERP and procurement platforms (SAP, Oracle, Ariba, Coupa, or equivalent) enough to run sourcing events and spend analytics without hand-holding.
  • Bonus: CPSM or CPP certification. Capital procurement experience in data center, energy, or industrial construction environments.
