The Mission of the Engineering Supply Chain Manager (Electronics)

As our Engineering Supply Chain Manager (Electronics), you'll join our fast-moving Global Supply Chain organization and work closely with our hardware engineering teams as they design and build electronic systems on tight and shifting timelines.

You'll be an active part of our engineering projects, helping to execute them and staying ahead of supply. That means identifying long lead items and critical components as early as possible in the process, and securing them before they become bottlenecks for testing and builds. When lead times, allocation or a late design change threaten a prototype schedule, we need you to act. Our development cycles are fast and iterations are constantly occurring since we thrive on pushing the technology for the best.

You'll also be a key link between Engineering and Production. You'll communicate R&D supply chain risks and the critical components you've identified to Production, so nothing comes as a surprise at handover. Your work supports the success of every engineering prototype iteration and at the same time prepares Production for rollout and mass production.

This role suits someone who is proactive by nature, with a solution driven mindset and a deep understanding of electronics, PCB manufacturing and hardware prototyping, who is comfortable with ambiguity and acts before problems arrive rather than waiting for them. How quickly we get from concept to working hardware in orbit, and then into production, depends on how well this role is done.

What we’re looking for

Must haves:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, Supply Chain, or similar.

5+ years of direct experience in electronics sourcing, component procurement or engineering supply chain roles in fast-moving hardware environments.

Strong technical understanding of semiconductors, passive components, PCB fabrication, PCBA assembly, embedded electronics, and prototyping flows.

Demonstrated ability to work effectively in startup-like conditions, tight deadlines, shifting priorities, and rapid cycles.

Hands-on experience interpreting electronic schematics, BOMs, AVL requirements, PCB stackups, and manufacturing documentation.

Demonstrated ability to work effectively in startup-like conditions: tight deadlines, shifting priorities, incomplete information, and rapid cycles.

Hands-on experience running purchasing and material management through an ERP system.

Confident negotiator, commercially and technically, able to influence engineers, program managers and suppliers without formal authority.

Professional English, written and spoken.

Nice to haves:

Engineering Electronics Background, knowledge of the tools and technical understanding/background of designs.

Experience in space, aerospace, defence, hardware startups or other deep-tech R&D environments.

Exposure to taking a hardware design from prototype into series production.

Existing relationships with PCB/PCBA vendors, distributors and electronics manufacturing partners.

Certifications (APICS, PMP, Six Sigma) useful but not required.

Familiarity with rapid-prototyping suppliers, global component marketplaces, and digital sourcing tools.
