You will commit long lead manufacturing capital equipment ahead of production need, while the process itself is still being selected. Machining, casting, molding, joining, assembly and test. The sourcing strategy you set determines machine count, capital deployed and cost per unit at full rate, and the commitments you make have to land against factory move in and start of production dates that do not move.
This is a builder role. You will start by owning the commodity directly, hire your team as the ramp accelerates, and define the scope, coverage model and operating rhythm yourself. This is an opportunity to equip a factory from an empty floor, at a scale and pace the industry has not attempted.
Key job responsibilities
- Team Build and Leadership: Hire, develop and lead the team responsible for capital equipment sourcing by commodity. Define the coverage model against the factory schedule, write the job descriptions, run the hiring, and onboard into an environment where the process does not yet exist. Carry commodity ownership directly until the team is in place.
