Reporting directly to the COO, you will manage relationships with key suppliers, contract manufacturers, and logistics providers. You will lead negotiations, monitor performance and risk, and establish the processes needed to improve forecasting, reduce costs, and increase resiliency. Your scope will include tactical execution as well as long-term strategic planning, with a focus on developing our supply chain footprint to support high-volume annual production across multiple product lines and geographies.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic, high-ownership environment and has deep experience building global supply chains in scaling hardware companies.

- Identify, evaluate, and onboard new suppliers and contract manufacturers to support scaling.
- Collaborate with engineering, operations, and finance to establish cost targets, lead time goals, and quality expectations for critical components and systems.
- Lead sourcing and negotiation efforts for key materials, components, and services across domestic and international vendors.
- Manage vendor performance, including on-time delivery, cost competitiveness, risk management, and capacity planning.
- Develop and implement scalable forecasting, planning, and inventory management processes.
- Support the development of a multi-region supply chain footprint, with a focus on resilience, diversification, and sustainability.
- Build data-driven dashboards and reporting tools to track supply chain performance and drive continuous improvement.
- Demonstrated success building and scaling global supply chains in a hardware or manufacturing startup environment.
- Deep knowledge of sourcing, vendor selection, and manufacturing across electrical, mechanical, and assembly supply chains.
- Strong negotiation and vendor management skills across contract manufacturers, 3PLs, logistics providers, and component suppliers.
- Fluency with supply chain software tools for forecasting, planning, and procurement (e.g., ERP/MRP, NetSuite, Katana, Odoo, etc.).
- Experience working cross-functionally with engineering, finance, and operations teams to deliver against aggressive production timelines.
- Clear, concise verbal and written communication skills for both internal and external stakeholders.
- A builder's mindset - excited to solve messy, ambiguous problems with curiosity, persistence, and humility.
- Willingness to work in a fast-paced, in-person environment with frequent vendor calls across time zones.
