At Matic, we’re on a mission to recapture that lost time, and we’re doing it by revolutionizing home robotics. Our first product, also called Matic, is a Wall-E-esque floor cleaning robot. We've built what amounts to "full self-driving in the home” with real-time 3D mapping, adaptive path-tracking, and a precise semantic understanding of the home. Our breakthroughs in spatial AI allow Matic to work reliably in real homes, using only RGB cameras and neural networks running on-device. Privacy First What happens in the home, stays in the home. Our robots are private by design, with all data processing performed by the robot itself, not in the cloud. Our Approach Before the iPhone, consumers adopted several distinct devices; cell phones, PDAs, and portable music players each served a particular need. We believe in a similar progression for home robotics, starting with single-purpose robots and building iteratively toward more complex capabilities over time. Our Culture Matic is a tight-knit and collaborative team, singularly focused on building products our customers will cherish. We're ultra-hardworking people committed to solving tough problems that save precious time and energy. ## About the role We're looking for a highly motivated and experienced Global Sourcing Manager to join our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for sourcing electronics commodities, including but not limited to ICs, PCBAs, EMS/Contract manufacturing, Electronics, Cameras, SoC, and system sub-assemblies, for our organization globally. The ideal candidate should possess a strong understanding of commodity sourcing in an electronics manufacturing industry and have excellent communication and negotiation skills. What you'll do: - Develop and implement global sourcing strategies for electronics commodities (SoC, memory, MOSFETs, Diodes, resistors, capacitors, power management ICs, PCBAs etc) in alignment with business objectives. - Manage and optimize the procurement process of multiple commodities, including supplier selection, contracting, and price negotiations. - Build and maintain relationships with key suppliers, ensuring compliance with contractual obligations and identifying opportunities for improvement. - Conduct supplier assessments and audits to evaluate supplier capabilities, quality systems, and overall performance. - Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering, quality, and manufacturing, to ensure sourcing decisions align with the company's overall goals and objectives. - Monitor market trends and industry developments, leveraging this information to make strategic sourcing decisions. - Work closely with supply chain partners to develop and implement inventory strategies that optimize cost and minimize risk. - Develop and execute capacity ramp plans to support organizational growth and demand forecasts. - Utilize a should-cost framework to ensure that purchased electronic commodities are obtained at the lowest possible total cost, while still meeting quality and delivery requirements. - Implement dual sourcing strategies for critical components to reduce supply chain risks and improve supply chain resiliency. - Draft and negotiate contracts with suppliers, including terms and conditions, pricing, and delivery schedules. - Monitor supplier performance metrics, including on-time delivery, quality, and cost, and develop corrective action plans as needed. - Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify and implement value engineering opportunities to reduce the cost of mechanical commodities while maintaining or improving quality. - Collaborate with contract manufacturing/EMS partners to ensure the successful ramp-up of production. Provide process validation, and resolve any manufacturing issues that may arise during the transition. - Provide regular reports to senior leadership on sourcing performance, supplier performance, market trends, and other key metrics. What we look for: - BS in Engineering, Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or a related field - At least 5 years of experience in global sourcing, with a focus on electronics commodities, including cameras and contract manufacturing. - Demonstrated ability to develop and implement sourcing strategies that drive cost savings and improve supplier performance. - Strong negotiation skills and ability to manage supplier relationships to ensure alignment with organizational goals and objectives. - Excellent communication skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams and influence decision-making. - Strong analytical skills and experience with data analysis and reporting. - Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities in a fast-paced environment.
