Job description

Job Title: Procurement & Supply Chain Manager, Hardware / Electronics (5+ Years Experience)

Notice:- Immediate to 15days

The supply chain that turns our designs into a manufactured product. We are building and deploying a medical hardware product at scale across India, with components sourced from both Chinese and Indian suppliers. The economics of the whole product depend on sourcing the right parts at the right cost and getting them reliably onto a bench and then a production line. That is your mandate. This is a founding operations role with real ownership — not a purchase-order desk — and you will build supplier relationships the company relies on for years.

Role Overview

As our Procurement & Supply Chain Manager, you own the entire sourcing and supply-chain function as a system: finding and qualifying suppliers, running RFQs, presenting costed options, negotiating, owning the bill of materials, and managing import, logistics, and assembly coordination. You turn engineering designs into parts on a bench, and eventually into a manufactured product at volume. You coordinate the specialist contractors we engage as needed — a China-based sourcing agent, a customs consultant, and a regulatory consultant — but you own the function.

Roles & Responsibilities

• Strategic sourcing: identify, evaluate, and qualify component and module suppliers (electronics modules, displays, compute boards, cellular modules, sensors, batteries, enclosures) across China and India, and present the team clear, costed options
• Run RFQs and negotiation — drive component costs down, especially at volume; manage the path from sample to bulk
• Manage ODM/OEM relationships, including custom-build orders (custom-specced boards, locked firmware images, bulk volume commitments)
• Own the bill of materials — keep it live, costed, and version-controlled
• Own import, logistics, and customs coordination — landed cost, duties, lead times, and the China-to-India supply pipeline
• Coordinate assembly and vendors — PCBA, sheet-metal/moulding fabricators, and the assembly process
• Build supply resilience — second sources for critical long-lead parts, lead-time management, and no single points of failure
• Coordinate the specialist contractors (China sourcing agent, customs consultant, regulatory consultant); you direct them, you don’t have to be all of them

Requirements

• 5+ years in procurement / sourcing / supply chain, specifically in electronics or hardware manufacturing (not FMCG, retail, or general procurement)
• Demonstrated track record sourcing components and modules from Chinese suppliers (Alibaba/Made-in-China, direct factory relationships) and Indian vendors
• Strong on RFQs, supplier negotiation, total-cost-of-ownership analysis, and BOM management
• Working knowledge of import / logistics / customs for electronics into India (HSN classification, duties, lead times)
• An operator mindset — you find options, present trade-offs, and own outcomes end to end

Good to Have

• Experience with ODM/OEM custom-build deals and volume commitments
• Medical-device component sourcing, and awareness of the regulatory and quality bar that brings
• Supplier-risk management; CPSM or equivalent certification
• An existing supplier network in electronics / hardware

Why Join Us?

• Own the supply chain the product’s economics depend on: the costs you negotiate and the supply you secure determine whether the unit economics hold
• Build the function from the ground up: supplier relationships, the BOM, and the China-to-India pipeline are yours to own and compound
• Work at the intersection of strategic sourcing, supplier negotiation, and hardware operations, on a product built to decentralize healthcare across India
• The sourcing and supply resilience you build directly determine how cheaply and reliably the fleet can scale
