## About the role

Base is hiring an early-career Strategic Sourcer to own the suppliers behind our home battery systems. This is an entry-level Global Supply Manager role for an engineer who wants to work where hardware meets the supply base. You'll dig into drawings and specs, figure out how parts are made and what they should cost, and take them from RFQ to award and through production ramp. You'll start with your own set of parts, learn from senior supply managers, and take on bigger categories as you prove yourself. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
