Job description

Our Incora Story is really taking off - we'd love you to join us for the journey.

We are currently seeking an exceptional customer service professional to join us as a Supplier Operations Engineer.

As the leading supply chain solutions business in the aerospace industry Customers are at the heart of our business.

The Supplier Operations Engineer is responsible for strengthening the performance, capability, and reliability of the supply base. This role partners closely with suppliers, internal operations, quality, and sourcing teams to ensure components, materials, and services meet operational, quality, cost, and delivery requirements. The Supplier Operations Engineer drives continuous improvement across supplier manufacturing processes, oversees operational readiness, and mitigates risks within the supply chain.

Accountability and Scope:

• Serve as the connector between supplier intelligence, commodity strategy, and operational execution.

• Support internal and customer‑driven second‑source development needs by responding to requests and helping build proposals that provide viable options for teams to evaluate and move forward.
• Support improved supplier engagement by participating in and modeling effective supplier visits and helping reframe supplier interactions as reciprocal, relationship‑driven engagements.
• Support supplier assessment needs, whether informally or through structured evaluation approaches, in alignment with business priorities and customer requirements as needed.
• Influence strategic procurement and contracting decisions by providing supplier intelligence and recommendations without bypassing established ownership and approval structures.
• Work in close partnership with Commodity Managers, recognizing that commodity strategy ownership remains with those roles while this position enables better‑informed decisions.
• Act as an integrated cross‑functional resource to Supplier Management, Procurement, and Commodity Management teams to align supplier insights with operational execution and business priorities.
• Familiarity with and experience reading prints and technical specifications in a variety of formats is strongly preferred.
