Key Responsibilities:
Owns the electrical commodity strategy for built-to-print EMS assemblies —
displays, motor controllers, on-board chargers and DC-DC converters — and the
strategic semiconductor supplier relationships behind them.
Define and maintain a category roadmap aligned to the product and volume
plan, with clear cost, capacity, risk and localization targets.
Lead supplier selection, RFQs and sourcing decisions for current programs (NPI)
and for cost/continuity actions on running production.
Build direct, strategic relationships with semiconductor suppliers — the
makers of the power devices (MOSFETs, IGBTs, SiC, gate drivers),
microcontrollers, memory, display drivers and analog ICs that drive our
assemblies — rather than relying on distribution alone.
Monitor device pricing, wafer and raw-material (including
rare-earth/magnet) trends, FX and logistics to forecast landed-cost movement
and time buys
Stay ahead of shifts (e.g. SiC/GaN adoption, controller and display
technology) to guide sourcing and design-in decisions.




Translate this intelligence into proactive risk actions and buying
strategies, and brief leadership with a explicit market outlook.
Own commodity cost — build should-cost/clean-sheet models for EMS
assemblies (material, labour, overhead, NRE) and negotiate to them.
Partner with engineering to influence component selection toward
sourceable, second-sourced, lifecycle-healthy parts — early, at design-in.

Ideal Candidate:
Bachelor's/Master’s degree in engineering or Supply chain Management is
preferred.
8–12+ years in strategic sourcing/procurement of electrical or electronic
commodities, including EMS/contract-manufacturing and semiconductor categories.
a track record of direct semiconductor supplier relationships,
allocation/LTA management, and lifecycle (EOL/PCN) handling.
solid should-cost, negotiation and contracting capability; comfort with
cross-functional influence.
proven use of market intelligence to anticipat
