About the role
Our team at H3X looking for a Sr. Procurement Specialist to execute day-to-day purchasing as we scale our manufacturing and introduce multiple new products. You will place and manage POs with approved suppliers, keep our supplier data current and reliable, and work on forecasting and supplier performance.

- Comfortable working with ERP/MRP systems for PO issuance and tracking
- Strong communication skills and ability to work cross-functionally with finance, engineering, and operations
- A proactive mindset, comfortable flagging risk early rather than waiting for it to become urgent
