Job Description

As a Senior Buyer – Manufacturing & Supply Chain at REGENT, you’ll be an early foundational member of REGENT’s Supply Chain team supporting our vehicle programs. You’ll own sourcing and procurement execution across prototype, pilot, and early production builds — while helping establish the supplier relationships, processes, and category foundations that scale through 2026 and into the production ramp.

Job Responsibility

  • Own sourcing and purchasing for assigned categories (e.g., composites/structures, machined parts, systems, or indirects), including RFIs/RFPs, supplier selection, and PO execution
  • Actively manage supplier schedules, lead times, delivery risk, and changes in a fast-moving build environment
  • Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, and Finance to translate evolving requirements into executable supply plans (ESI, make/buy, cost modeling, VA/VE, tooling and rate readiness.)
  • Build and manage supplier performance across cost, quality, delivery, and responsiveness
  • support negotiations, pricing agreements, and long-term supply arrangements
  • Help shape the early supply chain operating system: sourcing strategies, supplier segmentation, and category playbooks that will carry into production

Requirements

  • Experience in purchasing/sourcing/supply chain, ideally within EV, aerospace, or similarly complex engineered products
  • Strong command of engineering-driven procurement: drawings, BOMs, specs, change management, and long-lead planning
  • Comfort operating in early-stage environments with incomplete data — able to prioritize, drive decisions, and communicate clearly across functions
  • Track record selecting and managing suppliers for advanced manufacturing parts and holding the line on schedule, cost, and quality
  • Demonstrate ability to take products from prototype to certification to production ramp
  • Familiar with composites, machined structures, or electromechanical systems
  • experience in regulated industries
  • ERP/MRP exposure (NetSuite or similar)
  • strong commercial negotiation and cost analysis skills

What we offer

  • Competitive compensation including a robust equity incentive plan
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance - we cover 100% of your premiums
  • 401(k) with company matching, so you can plan for the future
  • Generous flexible time off, paid parental leave, and company-wide holiday breaks
  • Relocation packages available for those moving to join our team
  • Daily, free catered lunches
  • Learning & professional development opportunities
