Global Supply Chain Manager

About the Role

We are looking for a hands-on Global Supply Chain Manager who understands the flow of parts through a supply chain ecosystem and comes from a fast-scaling manufacturing environment. This role owns the full supply chain—from sourcing components and managing suppliers to building BOMs, scaling fulfillment operations, and resolving issues that arise in a hyper-growth setting. You must be comfortable building structure where none exists, diagnosing problems quickly, and implementing solutions that support rapid scale.

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end global supply chain operations: sourcing, procurement, planning, fulfillment, logistics, and supplier management.
• Source and procure mechanical/electronic/precision components; negotiate pricing, lead times, and supply agreements.
• Build, manage, and maintain Bills of Materials (BOMs) across multiple products and versions.
• Establish and oversee stage-gate processes for new product introductions and scaling phases.
• Analyze part-level flows through the entire ecosystem—contract manufacturers, sub-assembly, warehousing, logistics, and customer delivery.
• Identify bottlenecks, operational risks, and systemic issues; drive cross-functional root-cause analysis and resolution.
• Develop and refine supply chain models for scaling production, including demand planning, inventory strategy, and supplier capacity.
• Implement processes, tools, and reporting that bring clarity, accuracy, and predictability to the supply chain.
• Partner closely with Engineering, Quality, Production, and Finance on material readiness, cost implications, and production schedules.
• Manage supplier performance globally, ensuring reliability, quality, and consistent delivery in a high-growth environment.
• Support ERP setup and optimization related to procurement, inventory, PO workflows, and material movement.

Qualifications

• 7 years in supply chain, procurement, or operations roles within manufacturing (components, hardware, electronics, automotive, aerospace, or related).
• Experience in hyper-growth, early-stage, or scaling environments—comfortable building processes from scratch.
• Strong understanding of part-level procurement, material flow, inventory control, and supply chain modeling.
• Deep knowledge of BOM structures, change management, and engineering collaboration.
• Demonstrated ability to identify issues early, troubleshoot complex supply chain problems, and implement durable solutions.
• Experience with stage-gate processes and NPI (New Product Introduction) cycles.
• Proficient with ERP systems and procurement workflows.
• Excellent communication skills; able to work across engineering, operations, and finance to drive alignment.
• Global supplier management experience strongly preferred.
