• Lead contract renewals and price negotiations using data driven analysis and market benchmarking.

• Ensure supplier adherence to contractual obligations, delivery requirements, and quality metrics.

Technical & Cross Functional Collaboration

• Serve as the electronics procurement SME for NPI programs—ensuring components meet cost, lead time, and sourcing requirements.

• Partner with Engineering and Quality on supplier audits, corrective actions, and part standardization initiatives.

• Support ECO impact assessments, obsolescence management, and AVL expansion.
