Remote$155k - $199kFull-timePosted 6d ago
About the role
Role focused on owning multi-year commodity strategies for direct materials, leading sourcing events, negotiating long-term supply agreements, and driving annual cost reductions within a hyperscale compute infrastructure environment.
Responsibilities
- Own multi-year commodity strategies for direct material categories (metals, plastics, electronic components, sub-assemblies, MRO), building should-cost models.
- Lead RFI, RFQ, and RFP processes and e-auction bidding events across global supply markets, qualifying suppliers on capacity, financial health, and risk through structured assessments and site audits.
- Negotiate and execute Master Supply Agreements, Long-Term Agreements, and pricing amendments, coordinating with Legal and Finance on annual price reviews and cost-down commitments.
- Run Quarterly Business Reviews and supplier scorecards tracking quality (PPM), delivery (OTD), cost, and responsiveness, and build dual-source and geographic diversification plans to close out single-source risk.
- Deliver annual cost reduction targets through value engineering, demand aggregation, and supplier consolidation, partnering with Engineering on design-for-cost decisions ahead of new product introductions.
Qualifications
- You've built and owned multi-year commodity strategies for direct material categories, backed by should-cost models that survive supplier pushback.
- You've negotiated complex, multi-year supply agreements and pricing amendments across global markets, including Asia-Pacific, Europe, and North America.
- You've run RFI, RFQ, and RFP processes and e-auction bidding events end to end, from supplier qualification through contract signature.
- You track supplier performance with scorecards spanning quality (PPM), delivery (OTD), and cost, and you use commodity indices (LME, CBOT) and hedging mechanisms to anticipate pricing swings.
- You've delivered measurable annual cost reduction through value engineering, demand aggregation, or supplier consolidation, with demonstrable numbers.
- You've worked inside ERP and procurement platforms (SAP, Oracle, Ariba, Coupa, Jaggaer, or equivalent).
- Bonus: CPSM, CSCP, or CPP certification. Familiarity with quality systems (PPAP, APQP, IATF 16949, ISO 9001). Direct materials sourcing in hardware or hyperscale infrastructure environment.
