This includes Enterprise Software & SaaS, IT Hardware & Cloud Infrastructure, Manufacturing & Facility CapEx, Professional Services (Consulting, Legal, Contingent Labor), Facilities & Real Estate, and Corporate MRO.
This role is critical as our organization scales rapidly to meet surging global mission demands, our non-production footprint represents both our greatest engine of operational speed and a critical lever for capital efficiency. You will lead a high-performing team to build a resilient, scalable, and high-velocity supply chain capable of moving rapidly from New Product Introduction (NPI) to high-volume production. Partnering closely with Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Executive Leadership, you will secure supply continuity against global market volatility, drive cost and technology roadmaps, and negotiate key commercial partnerships with global component manufacturers, distributors, and contract manufacturers.

Conduct regular operational and strategic reviews with C-suite and executive leadership, serving as the primary executive escalation point for all critical supply chain matters.
- Commercial & Strategic Negotiations: Lead high-stakes negotiations for master service agreements (MSAs), development agreements, long-term supply agreements (LTSAs), and complex statement of works (SOWs) - optimizing pricing structures, IP protection, warranty, payment terms, and lead-time commitments.
- Procure-to-Pay (P2P) & Process Scale: Partner with Finance and IT to mature enterprise Source-to-Pay (S2P) and Procure-to-Pay (P2P) workflows (e.g., Coupa, Zip, NetSuite, SAP), streamlining intake, approvals, contract lifecycle management, and supplier onboarding.
- Supply Chain Resilience & Risk Mitigation: Collaborate with Information Security, Legal, and Compliance to ensure all software, cloud, and service vendors comply with rigorous corporate data privacy and governance standards, InfoSec standards, and defense compliance requirements (e.g., CMMC, FedRAMP, SOC 2, ITAR).
- Cost Architecture & TCO Modeling: Implement advanced spend analytics, total cost of ownership (TCO) frameworks, and rigorous demand management practices to eliminate redundant applications, curb rogue spend, and optimize seat/license utilization.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Proven track record of managing supplier lifecycles and negotiating complex multi-million-dollar commercial agreements.
- In-depth expertise in modern procurement systems (Coupa, Zip, Ariba, etc.), contract lifecycle management (CLM) platforms, and spend analytics tools.

- Professional certifications (CPSM, CPM, CIPS)

- Strong financial acumen with experience leading zero-based budgeting (ZBB) reviews and working closely with Corporate FP&A teams.
- Strategic thinker, experienced putting together commodities strategy/roadmap with key executive stakeholders
