Technical Program Manager, Supply Chain
Role Scope
Bridge engineering and sourcing on every critical equipment category, turning design changes into updated BOMs and supplier requirements with no dropped scope.
Partner with engineering from concept through detailed design, shaping specs and drawings so what gets designed is what can actually be sourced and built on schedule.
Own BOM accuracy and change control across the program, so sourcing negotiates and issues POs against the right part, revision, and quantity every time.
Drive supplier selection and qualification, running technical evaluations alongside engineering to close on vendors who meet spec, lead time, and capacity thresholds.
Review and approve vendor submittals, including shop drawings, cut sheets, and test reports, against design intent, catching spec deviations before they reach the field.

Review and approve vendor submittals, including shop drawings, cut sheets, and test reports, against design intent, catching spec deviations before they reach the field.
Manage BOM revisions and change control on programs with multiple concurrent engineering changes, and nothing gets lost between rev A and rev C.
Write and speak clearly enough to turn a technical disagreement between an engineer and a supplier into a decision and a next step.
- Bonus: Data center or industrial equipment categories (switchgear, transformers, cooling, generators).
- ERP or PLM systems (SAP, Oracle, Arena).
- Formal program or project management background.
- Experience on modular or first-of-a-kind builds.
What We're Looking For
- You've sat at the intersection of engineering and procurement, translating design requirements into sourcing-ready specs and BOMs without losing technical intent in translation.
- You've run supplier qualification and selection processes, evaluating vendors on technical fit, lead time, and capacity, not just price.
- You've reviewed vendor submittals against design specs and caught deviations before they reached fabrication or the field.
- You quarterback across engineering, sourcing, and vendors, and you're the person other teams call when a spec and a PO don't match.
- You manage BOM revisions and change control on programs with multiple concurrent engineering changes, and nothing gets lost between rev A and rev C.
- You write and speak clearly enough to turn a technical disagreement between an engineer and a supplier into a decision and a next step.
