Head of Supply Chain

Head Of Supply Chain

We're hiring a Head of Supply Chain to lead the strategy, programs, and operating system for construction materials across our factory and field operations. This is a senior leadership role for someone who has been the strategic layer above tactical procurement at a high-growth hardware or manufacturing company, and who is energized by being a cross-functional thought partner — not just a procurement function leader.

You will lead a team that runs day-to-day procurement and inventory operations, freeing you to focus on supplier strategy, cost-down programs, the operating system that scales across multiple factories, and the cross-functional integration of supply chain into design, DFMA, and project delivery. You'll also carry meaningful bandwidth for strategic initiatives at the executive team's request — work that sits outside the supply chain lane and where your judgment and synthesis are the product.

You'll report to the Head of Factory Operations and manage our Procurement, Buyer & Inventory function from day one.

• Launch 2–3 strategic supplier programs in high-impact categories (e.g., windows, cabinets, structural lumber, MEP equipment).
• Build leverage where Reframe doesn't yet have scale — through standardization, multi-year commitments, alternate sourcing, and direct manufacturer relationships.
• Co-own $/sqft cost trajectory with our Design team.

• Develop a documented, teachable process from permit set → BOM → RFQs → POs → receiving → kitting → project closeout.
• Establish supply chain data standards: part numbering, BOM structure, stock vs. buy-to-job logic, supplier and inventory data models.
• Stand up a simple but reliable inventory and spend picture using existing tools, and use it as the basis for future ERP / WMS requirements.

• Manage and develop a team including Procurement, Buying, and Inventory Management.
• Set clear scope, standards, and growth paths so the team operates day-to-day without escalation.
• Hire and grow the function as Reframe scales to additional microfactories.

• Sit in Design conversations and credibly shape decisions with cost, lead-time, and supply-risk data.
• Propose and analyze material alternatives; co-decide on changes that affect building systems, permitting, or installation.
• Partner with Factory and Site Operations to ensure material plans actually work on the floor and on site.

• Carry approximately 20% bandwidth for strategic initiatives outside the supply chain lane — investor-facing analysis, JV partner due diligence support, market entry studies, business model exploration, and other high-leverage projects.
• Bring structured thinking and clear written communication to executive-level decisions.

• Translate real-world workflows into clear requirements for a future ERP / WMS, in partnership with Software and Finance.
• Act as the primary operational stakeholder when we evaluate and implement more advanced systems in the next 1–2 years.

• Projects hit their cost and schedule milestones, with measurable contribution from supplier programs you launched.
• A working procurement and inventory operating system is in place and used by the team across FAB0 and FAB
  1.
• We have a clear, accurate view of inventory and material spend that holds up in board reviews and investor diligence.
• Your team is leveled up, scoped, and growing.
• You've delivered at least one significant strategic initiative outside the supply chain lane.
• You're recognized internally as the trusted senior leader on anything that touches construction materials.

• 10+ years in supply chain, procurement, or operations at scaling hardware, deep tech, or manufacturing companies. Backgrounds like automotive OEMs, aerospace, advanced manufacturing, or modular construction at scale all map well.
• You've been the strategic layer above…
