Tiberius Aerospace is building the next generation of weapons systems for the United States, United Kingdom, and their allies. We believe the future of defense will be built differently — with faster iteration, tighter integration between software and hardware, and a more modern approach to how mission-critical systems are designed, tested, deployed, and improved. Tiberius is building technologies that do not stop evolving once they leave the factory, while helping shape a defense ecosystem that connects engineers, operators, manufacturers, governments, and allies into a continuously learning system.

To serve our nations with Strength, Honor, and Purpose — forging the systems that defend freedom and shape the future of defense.

Tiberius Aerospace is seeking an experienced Supply Chain Manager to lead the strategic and operational management of procurement, supplier development, inventory control, logistics, property acquisition, configuration management, and supply chain compliance activities across government and commercial programs.

The Supply Chain Manager will ensure the timely, compliant, and cost-effective acquisition of materials, equipment, tooling, capital assets, and services required to support engineering, testing, manufacturing, and program execution.
