## Job description

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.

## OUR MISSION

True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.

## OUR VALUES

- Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.
- What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.
- It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.

## YOUR MISSION

As a Procurement Specialist at True Anomaly, you will own the day-to-day execution of indirect procurement — sourcing the services, tools, facilities, and operational goods that keep our teams moving. You will manage the full purchase-to-pay cycle, handle vendor relationships, and solve the supply problems that pop up without warning. This is a tactical, execution-focused role for someone who is organized, resourceful, and energized by getting things done quickly and correctly in a fast-moving environment.

## RESPONSIBILITIES

- Execute the full procure-to-pay process: intake requests, issue RFQs, evaluate bids, issue purchase orders, and confirm delivery and invoicing
- Maintain an active vendor list for indirect categories, ensuring competitive options are available when needs arise
- Track open purchase orders and proactively follow up with vendors to ensure on-time delivery
- Support contract administration for indirect agreements — NDAs, MSAs, SOWs — coordinating with legal as needed
- Serve as the day-to-day point of contact for indirect vendors, managing performance expectations and resolving delivery, quality, or invoicing issues quickly
- Identify and qualify new vendors when existing suppliers cannot meet requirements on cost, lead time, or capability
- Escalate and resolve vendor disputes, short shipments, and invoice discrepancies without letting issues linger
- Maintain accurate procurement records — POs, quotes, contracts, and receipts — in the procurement system of record
- Support compliance with FAR, DFARS, and ITAR requirements as they apply to indirect procurement activities.
- Identify repetitive or manual procurement tasks and recommend process improvements to reduce cycle time
- Communicate clearly on delivery status, vendor issues, and cost variances so internal stakeholders are never left guessing

## QUALIFICATIONS

- 3–6 years of procurement or purchasing experience, with meaningful exposure to indirect spend categories
- Hands-on experience executing the full procure-to-pay process, including issuing RFQs, evaluating quotes, and managing POs
- Strong vendor management skills — comfortable holding suppliers accountable and resolving disputes directly
- Highly organized with the ability to manage a high volume of open orders and competing priorities simultaneously
- Familiarity with procurement or ERP systems (e.g., Coupa, SAP, NetSuite, or similar)
- Clear communicator who keeps stakeholders informed without being asked

## PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE

- Experience in aerospace, defense, or technology manufacturing environments
- Familiarity with FAR, DFARS, or ITAR compliance requirements as they apply to purchasing
- Exposure to contract administration (MSAs, SOWs, NDAs)
- Experience contributing to procurement process buildout in a startup or high-growth company

## COMPENSATION

- Base Salary:  $65,000-$120,000
- Equity + Benefits including Health, Dental, Vision, HRA/HSA options, PTO and paid holidays, 401K, Parental Leave

Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, location, and experience.

## ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

- Work Location—Successful candidates will be located near Denver or Long Beach.
- Work environment—the work environment; temperature, noise level, inside or outside, or other factors that will affect the person's working conditions while performing the job.
- Physical demands—the physical demands of the job, including bending, sitting, lifting and driving.

This position will be open until it is successfully filled.
