SAP consultant

We're building production lines for a brand new fiber optic connector product driven by AI data center demand. Our automation team designs and builds custom equipment, and we need a technical project and procurement lead to keep every machine build on track. You'll own the material and schedule side of each build: turning engineering BOMs into orders, chasing long lead components and keeping engineering, suppliers and the warehouse in sync from design release through commissioning.
