Collaborate with quality teams on supplier audits, FAI requirements, and non‑conformance resolution.

Data, Reporting & Risk Management

Analyze market trends, cost drivers, and supply chain risks to support decision‑making.
Maintain accurate procurement data in ERP/MRP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Epicor).
Develop mitigation plans for long‑lead items, sole‑source suppliers, and critical components.

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in supply chain, Business, Engineering, or related field (master’s is a plus).
5–10+ years of procurement experience, with at least 3 years in the aerospace or defense industry.
Strong understanding of AS9100, ITAR/EAR, and FAR/DFARS compliance.
Proven track record of negotiating complex, high‑value contracts.
Experience with ERP/MRP systems and advanced Excel or analytics tools.
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and technical specifications.
Excellent communication, problem‑solving, and supplier‑relationship skills.
