What you'll do

  • Select suppliers for specific products using the approved supplier list.
  • Partner with strategic suppliers to accelerate product development through concept scoping and joint design.
  • Develop and consolidate manufacturing Bills of Materials (BOM) to support production scaling.
  • Manage capital expenditures throughout the New Product Introduction (NPI) phase.
  • Conduct value-stream mapping to optimize supply network lead times and flexibility.
  • Perform BOM risk assessments and identify alternate component sources.
  • Ensure all components are qualified before production begins.
  • Lead cost engineering activities to minimize total cost of ownership across the product lifecycle.

What we're looking for

  • Must have a Master's degree or advanced technical degree in mechanical engineering.
  • Experience in the design and development of electronics and/or mechanical devices.
  • Experience in advanced sourcing activities including roles as commodity or sourcing managers.
  • Experience in supplier development regarding technology, process, and supply chain.
  • Experience with early supplier engagement before product or engineering requirements are finalized.
  • Familiarity with developing high-tech products in a high-mix, low-volume environment.
  • Experience working in a fast-paced, start-up environment.
  • Must be eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
