Sourcing Jobs in Fremont, CA

Meta's Infrastructure Sourcing organization is responsible for securing the supply, commercial terms, and supplier relationships that power Meta's global data center portfolio. Category Sourcing Managers own the end-to-end sourcing lifecycle for critical infrastructure equipment categories, from multi-year strategy through contract execution and supplier performance management. In this role, you will own one or more categories within Meta's power and cooling infrastructure portfolio, spanning high, medium, and low voltage distribution equipment, power generation systems, air and liquid cooling technologies, modular power and cooling assemblies, and energy storage. You will partner with data center engineering, construction, and capacity planning teams to align supplier capability and technology roadmaps with Meta's global infrastructure growth. You will lead technology cutovers across supplier generations, optimizing capacity allocation against platform roadmaps and perf/TCO tradeoffs. In addition you will partner directly with Hardware Engineering to drive suppliers to adopt or pivot roadmaps to meet scale, performance, and cost targets

• Define and execute multi-year category strategies for power and cooling infrastructure equipment, incorporating market analysis, supplier segmentation, total cost of ownership modeling, and supply risk assessment
• Lead end-to-end sourcing events including RFx development, supplier evaluation, commercial negotiation, and contract execution for high-value power and cooling equipment categories
• Develop and sustain executive-level supplier relationships across the power and cooling supply base, conducting structured business reviews to drive measurable improvements in cost, quality, delivery, and capacity
• Analyze commodity market dynamics affecting power and cooling equipment supply chains, including exposure to copper, steel, aluminum, and refrigerant markets, and develop mitigation strategies accordingly
• Assess and manage supply chain risks including geopolitical exposure, single-source dependencies, long-lead-time components, and capacity constraints across the power and cooling supplier base
• Partner with data center engineering, construction, and capacity planning teams to align sourcing strategies and supplier capability roadmaps with infrastructure deployment schedules
• Establish and track supplier capacity commitments to ensure supply availability supports Meta's global data center build pipeline across multiple geographies
• Drive supplier development and qualification initiatives to expand geographic diversity, introduce alternative sources of supply, and improve resilience for critical power and cooling categories
• Apply should-cost modeling and value engineering methodologies in collaboration with engineering and design teams to identify and execute cost reduction opportunities
• Develop executive-level category reporting and strategic insights, communicating sourcing strategy, supplier performance, and risk posture to cross-functional stakeholders and leadership

Minimum Qualifications:

• 8+ years of experience in strategic sourcing, category management, or procurement for power and cooling infrastructure equipment or related mechanical and electrical systems
• Experience leading end-to-end sourcing processes including RFx development, supplier evaluation, commercial negotiation, and contract execution for capital equipment categories

• Experience partnering directly with Hardware Engineering and driving suppliers to adopt or pivot technology roadmaps to align with business and technical roadmaps
• Experience managing technology cutovers across supplier generations, including optimizing capacity allocation based on platform roadmaps and technology perf/TCO characteristics

Preferred Qualifications:

• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)
• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
• Experience sourcing power and cooling infrastructure equipment specifically for hyperscale or large-scale data center environments, including switchgear, transformers, UPS systems, or liquid cooling technologies
• Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
• Experience working cross-functionally with data center engineering or construction teams to align procurement strategy with infrastructure design and deployment timelines
• Familiarity with commodity market dynamics affecting power and cooling supply chains, including copper, steel, aluminum, and refrigerant pricing and availability
