• Perform variance and usage analysis to identify cost reduction or re-use opportunities. 

• Collaborate with finance and operations on forecasting and reporting to maintain alignment with quarterly goals. 

Data Analytics & Reporting 

• Develop dashboards (Excel, Power BI, or SQL-based) to consolidate material, procurement, and inventory metrics into actionable insights. 

• Report readiness KPIs, spend variance, and supplier performance to management and program stakeholders. 

• Use analytics to drive recommendations for optimizing supply chain efficiency and lead-time reduction.  

Continuous Improvement & Governance 

• Drive process improvement initiatives using Lean principles, PFMEA, and root-cause analysis frameworks. 

• Standardize safety stock models, planning parameters, and readiness templates across programs. 

• Support audit readiness, documentation governance, and adherence to company inventory policies. 

Key Metrics

• Skilled in balancing inventory efficiency with program agility. 
• Continuous improvement mindset and ownership-driven execution. 

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE: 

• Proficiency with SAP or equivalent ERP/MRP systems; strong Excel, SQL, and Power BI analytics skills.  
• Ability to influence cross-functional partners and external manufacturers to secure commitments and drive issue closure.
• Strong analytical and communication skills, able to deliver clear, decision-ready updates to senior stakeholders.
• Experience supporting rack-scale systems, server/data center hardware, or other complex, multi-level BOM environments.
• Experience with contract manufacturers/ODMs, including capacity, constraints, and delivery commitments.
• Working knowledge of ERP/MRP and planning tools; strong Excel skills (Power BI a plus).

ACADEMIC CREDENTIALS: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Industrial Engineering, Business, or other engineering related fields.
