  • Coordinate closely with international contract manufacturers to align production planning, demand forecasts, and material supply.
  • Support RFQ analysis, cost comparison, and commercial negotiation.
  • Monitor and proactively resolve logistics, customs, and trade compliance issues (US/China/Canada flows).
2. Supplier Quality Management
  • Lead supplier performance tracking across quality, delivery, and responsiveness metrics (OTD, PPM, RMA rate).
  • Maintain and publish supplier scorecards and conduct quarterly supplier performance reviews.
  • Coordinate supplier qualification and onboarding, including documentation review (ISO certifications, quality manuals, process capability).
  • Drive corrective action follow‑up (8D / CAPA) for supplier‑related quality issues.
  • Coordinate containment actions and recovery plans for quality escapes impacting production.
  • Track and manage RMA and field return data related to supplier components.
  • Support supplier audits (remote or onsite) in coordination with Engineering.
  • Ensure quality agreements and supplier compliance documentation are maintained and enforced.
  • Escalate recurring supplier quality or capacity risks to management with mitigation plans.
3. Inventory & Operational Execution
  • Prepare forecast to contract manufacturers to support inventory building and replenishment.
  • Coordinate warehousing, receiving, and logistics operations.
  • Support cost reduction and inventory optimization initiatives.
4. Cross‑Functional Collaboration
  • Work closely with Engineering, Production, Finance, and Project Management to resolve material and supplier‑related risks.
  • Support NPI (New Product Introduction) activities, including supplier readiness and ramp planning.
  • Provide structured reporting on supply chain KPIs, supplier performance, and risk exposure.
5. Compliance & Risk Management
  • Ensure procurement and supplier activities comply with trade regulations, customs requirements, and applicable safety standards.
  • Support documentation readiness for regulatory or customer audits.
  • Identify and mitigate supply continuity risks, including single‑source exposure and capacity constraints.
