What are the responsibilities and job description for the Supply Chain Engineer/Analyst position at Sonic Manufacturing Technologies?
Supply Chain Engineer/Analyst
SQL, API, AI, Analytics, ERP, Quoting, Sourcing, Procurement
Sonic Manufacturing Technologies (Fremont, CA USA) built the first Digital Supply Chain in the electronics industry. A project started more than 20 years ago, before the term “Digital Supply Chain” existed, and it continues to evolve and to this day.
Currently the computer solves for data accuracy, calculates demand, finds components through supplier connectivity, procures by business rules, confirms orders, obtains status, issues change order, tracks shipments, receives invoices and authorizes payments; all autonomously. This is about 75% of our procurement activity of 1M parts per week from leading suppliers around the globe. Half these parts arrive at Sonic within 5 business days of order placement. Now, we are adding Agentic AI to our capabilities. There is nothing faster or more accurate than a Digital Supply Chain.
If you have graduated with an engineering and operations management, business, supply chain, industrial/mechanical or mechatronics engineering degree; and have performed coursework in data analytics or SQL programming, we want to hear from you. If you have experience in business that includes SQL or data analytics but grow tired of producing wall metrics for conference room committees and dashboards for managers that never seem to change things; we want to make you an offer:
Program your mind and hands into the digital supply chain as an extension of yourself and watch it unfold into transactions around the globe, shipments traversing terminals, components moving into inventory, production launched in the factory and physical product handed to customers. If your ideas don’t result in physical products; you gain instant feedback from the world (Truth) and get to do better in Round 2.
Qualifications? Mostly character. There are so few people qualified to do this; we teach the coding. If you are a self-motivated life-long learner, want to make an impact on over 100 OEM Silicon Valley technology customers including name brands you know, impact the livelihood of hundreds of employees by successfully competing with globalization (“China”), and be first to build-out the digital infrastructure that is the future-state of supply chains; this is for you. It is a global game of chess, always looking for the best move on an ever-changing board.
The Routine? Your time will be split between procurement and programming/analytics so you learn the real world as a part of the purchasing team; experiencing the same problems and always asking, “How can I do this better?” No remote coding from 'specification'. We will brainstorm the changes to processes and coding, rev it into the live supply chain, and experience the results. Our internal time-frame for a coding project is measured in minutes, hours, or days. Longer horizons are only limited by the speed of external partners and suppliers.
No H1B visas at this time. Recruiters not accepted.
