Fastly’s customers include many of the world’s most prominent companies, including GitHub, Yelp, Paramount, and JetBlue. We're building a more trustworthy Internet. Come join us. Procurement Operations Specialist Fastly is growing its Indirect Procurement team and is looking for a detail-oriented, highly motivated Procurement Operations Specialist. You will be the operational backbone of our purchasing process — managing purchase requests, owning contract execution, and safeguarding the integrity of our procurement data. Working India hours, you'll prepare and hand off work so our US-based negotiators and reviewers start each day ready to move. ## What You'll Do Purchase Request Intake & Assignment - Review every incoming Indirect Purchase Request (PR) in Coupa for completeness and accuracy. - Return or reject PRs that lack required documentation, are coded incorrectly, or carry payment terms that don't match the negotiated agreement. - Assign approved, "ready-to-negotiate" PRs to the appropriate US negotiator via the Coupa Assignee field. - Partner with the Procurement Risk Coordinator, also based in Pune, to hand off any request that needs cross-functional review. New Supplier Setup - Act as first approver for New Supplier Requests, confirming each request is complete and correctly documented. - Flag potential duplicate or redundant suppliers (for example, new merchandise suppliers) to the Procurement Managers for review before onboarding begins. - Partner with the Accounts Payable team to coordinate collection of supplier onboarding documents. Contract Execution & Records - Own the contract signature process for all Indirect purchases by confirming correct documents, signatories, and routing. - Prepare and send DocuSign envelopes, ensuring every field is correctly tagged and the signature policy is followed. - Ensure all fully executed agreements are filed correctly and that key metadata (costs, term dates, notice periods) is captured in the contract tracking system. Process Integrity & Reporting - Log "out-of-process" procurement events in the shared team tracker to support reporting and continuous improvement. - Create and maintain purchasing documentation and internal process communications. - Delight internal customers and business partners through excellent, responsive service. What We're Looking For: - 3+ years of experience in Procurement or Finance Operations. - Ability to identify discrepancies between contract language and system data (particularly payment terms). - An agile, self-starting mindset that thrives in a fast-paced environment and adjusts quickly to the changing priorities of a growth company. - Comfortable working both independently and as part of a team. - Excellent relationship-building skills that foster partnerships across departments, levels, time zones, and geographies. - Excellent written and verbal communication including outreach to global suppliers and the confidence to respectfully hold internal stakeholders to process. - Strong time- and project-management skills. - Proficiency with Excel and Google Sheets. - A sense of curiosity and a desire to learn every day. We’ll be super impressed if you have experience in any of these: - Coupa - Atlassian Suite (Jira, Jira Service Management, Confluence) - Ironclad - DocuSign Work Hours: - This position will require you to work during scheduled hours from  5:30 PM – 2:30 AM IST Work Location(s) & Travel Requirements: This position is based out of our Pune, India office.
