You will partner closely with internal and external stakeholders to align demand, supply, and production execution while providing clear visibility of material health, risks, and recovery plans to leadership. Key Responsibilities • Own end-to-end material readiness for assigned ODM partners and serve as the primary point of accountability for supply continuity and production execution. • Drive ODM accountability for build commitments, escalating unresolved constraints and ensuring timely recovery plans with clear ownership and timelines. • Conduct regular business reviews with ODM planning and procurement teams to align on build schedules, material availability, and overall supply risk. • Drive MRP alignment between demand signals and ODM material planning systems to ensure planning accuracy and execution readiness. • Manage Commit-to-Build (CTB) cycles by tracking material availability against build plans and proactively identifying gating components. • Manage complex multi-level Bills of Materials (BOMs), translating material risks into actionable mitigation and recovery strategies. • Monitor inventory health, excess and obsolete (E&O) exposure, and material lifecycle transitions across assigned programs. • Partner with commodity management, NPI, logistics, procurement, engineering, and operations teams to resolve supply constraints and support successful production ramps. • Maintain accurate material risk reporting and communicate supply health, risks, and mitigation actions to senior leadership. Required Qualifications • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, Operations, Engineering, or a related discipline. • Minimum 5 years of experience in materials management, supply chain execution, manufacturing operations, or ODM program management within the technology industry. • Direct experience working with ODM planning and procurement teams in a high-volume manufacturing environment. • Proven experience managing complex BOM structures, CTB processes, and material readiness activities. • Strong understanding of MRP systems, demand planning, supply planning, and inventory management principles. • Proficiency in Mandarin is required as this role involves regular communication with Mandarin-speaking ODM partners and suppliers across the APAC region. • Excellent stakeholder management, communication, and cross-functional coordination skills. • Demonstrated ability to drive accountability, resolve conflicts, and execute under time-sensitive conditions. Preferred Qualifications • Experience supporting large-scale data center, server, infrastructure, compute, storage, or networking hardware programs. • Familiarity with rack-level assemblies, system integration, and hardware manufacturing supply chains. • Experience managing supply chain operations across Taiwan, China, and the broader APAC region. • APICS/ASCM certification (CSCP, CPIM) or equivalent professional certification.
