Job Description: Supply Chain Analyst – AI-Enabled Supply Continuity & Process
Innovation

Position Overview

We are looking for a proactive Supply Chain Analyst who can navigate the tension
between traditional supply assurance — supplier follow-up, delivery risk
assessment, and expediting decisions — and the current frontier of AI-powered
process innovation. This role is designed for someone who can partner with IT
and Analytics teams to co-create intelligent automations while simultaneously
building their own lightweight AI tools (using Microsoft Copilot and Office 365)
to reduce manual effort, improve decision speed, and democratize AI capability
across the supply chain function.

Key Responsibilities

1. Supplier Delivery Follow-Up & Line Risk Management – Own day-to-day




follow-up with suppliers on delivery commitments; proactively identify
at-risk orders using AI-generated alerts and predictive flags, and make
real-time expediting decisions (air freight, alternate sourcing, buffer
stock) to prevent line stoppages.
2. AI-Augmented Risk Assessment & Escalation – Leverage AI/ML-based scoring
(powered by models built in collaboration with Analytics or prototyped via
Copilot/Python) to quantify supplier risk across dimensions like lead time
vulnerability, past reliability, and financial health, enabling prioritized
escalation.
3. Data-Driven Expedite Decisioning – Use predictive scenario modeling and
AI-generated recommendations to determine when expediting is truly
necessary, balancing premium cost against production downtime risk, with
clear reasoning documented for audit trails.
4. Cross-Functional Collaboration with IT & Analytics – Act as the supply
chain subject matter expert embedded in cross-functiona
