Janesville, WI

The Procurement Manager will lead the development, review, approval, and execution of commercial grade dedication plans, seismic qualification plans, and environmental qualification plans. This role is all about ownership, leadership, and making a direct impact from day one.

First-of-its-kind nuclear medical facility focused on clean energy and diagnostics.
Competitive salary based on your experience, open to negotiation for the right person.
Local candidates preferred, however, relocation not required to start, just need to be onsite in 6–12 months.
Tight-knit, mission-driven team that values flexibility and collaboration.

What You’ll Be Doing:
The purpose of this position is to direct and manage a procurement engineering organization responsible for generation of commercial grade dedication (CGD) plans, seismic and environmental qualification plans, and receipt inspection activities for items procured in support of Chrysalis construction, a first-of-a-kind medical isotope facility located in Janesville, WI.

Interface with Engineering, Commercial Grade Dedication Lab, and Supply Chain groups early in the procurement process to determine procurement strategies.
Interface with Engineering organization to identify safety functions of items.
Interface with Commercial Grade Dedication Lab Supervisor on testing activities.
Lead the development, review, approval, and execution of commercial grade dedication plans, seismic qualification plans, and environmental qualification plans.
Lead receipt inspection processes for items purchased for safety-related and non-safety-related applications.

Develop and maintain group budget for procurement engineering costs.
Develop and update procurement engineering schedule, maintaining a detailed and high-integrity plan to accurately predict milestones and resource loading.
Monitor for early warning signs related to schedule slips and shifts resources to keep projects on schedule.

What We’re Looking For:
Bachelor's Degree.
Sr. Level, 10-15 years preferred, experience with Commercial Grade Dedication (CGD) lab experience. Nuclear experience preferred, however, the right individual with very strong CDG lab experience and leadership experience from another highly-regulated industry may also be considered.
7 years of relevant engineering experience in procurement, quality assurance, or technical project management—preferably in nuclear, medical isotope, or other regulated industry.
Experience in equipment qualification.
Prior experience managing engineering teams or direct reports, with strong mentoring and leadership capabilities.
Demonstrated expertise in Commercial Grade Dedication (CGD) planning, execution, and documentation within a nuclear or highly regulated environment.
Solid knowledge of seismic and environmental qualification processes for critical safety-related equipment and materials.
Hands-on experience with receipt inspection activities and Quality Receipt Inspector (QRI) certification process.
Proven ability to interface and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, including Project Controls, Supply Chain, Engineering, and Lab personnel.
