Job Description:

Come and develop, drive, and deliver new products in the world of Meta’s Reality Labs! We’re looking for individuals that want to be on the ground floor of breakthrough technologies and help build a world-class sourcing team. As a Strategic Sourcing Manager (SSM), you will be responsible for developing the key strategic relationships and sourcing strategies for camera, depth, and optics modules and their critical components—including (but not limited to) camera modules, depth/ToF modules, structured light components, lenses, lens barrels, actuators (AF/OIS), optical filters, VCSEL/laser emitters, receivers, flexes/connectors, and module-level integration partners. You will lead commercial negotiations, part/module costing (BOM and conversion), and end-to-end supply chain management. This role depends on close collaboration with Electrical Engineering, Optical Engineering, Camera/Depth Systems teams, Program Management, Quality, and Supplier development Engineers. During the product development process, you are responsible for ensuring suppliers are prepared to support delivery of modules and key parts on-time at specified quality, reliability, yield, and performance parameters, and are prepared to meet ramp quantities. It is the SSM’s primary objective to ensure suppliers meet or exceed commercial and technical requirements throughout the life-cycle of the product(s).

Job Responsibility:

  • Help support the development of commodity/category sourcing strategies for Camera, Depth, and Optics modules, ensuring suppliers can meet Smartglasses/AR current and future technical and business requirements
  • Be a subject matter expert in module integration supply chains (camera/depth modules), including key manufacturing processes, capacity models, yield drivers, test coverage, and reliability requirements
  • Continually benchmark the industry to monitor technology trends (camera sensors and module architectures, depth modalities, lens and coating technologies, actuator trends, optical safety/regulatory requirements) and ensure best practices are incorporated into the Reality Labs supply chain
  • Lead supplier selection criteria, evaluate alternative suppliers, manage RFQs, and drive final supplier selection in partnership with Engineering, Quality, and Technical Operations
  • Drive end-to-end module commercial ownership, including BOM cost, conversion cost, labor/overhead, yield assumptions, tooling/NRE, and cost-down roadmaps
  • Formulate contingency plans to de-risk technical challenges, long lead times, single-source dependencies, cost challenges, and any supply issues (multi-site, alternate process flows, buffer strategies)
  • Institute checks and balances to optimize schedule flexibility while minimizing excess inventory exposure (E&O risk management, hubbing strategy, VMI/consignment where applicable)
  • Partner with CMs/ODMs/EMS and module integrators to resolve part shortages, quality issues, or yield excursions that impact production schedules
  • drive rapid containment and recovery plans
  • Own ramp readiness including risk buys, capacity bring-up, line qualification, and supply assurance plans to support production plan and forecasts for designated suppliers
  • Lead supplier development agreements to onboard new module integrators and key optical component suppliers
  • ensure qualification plans (FAI/, GR&R, reliability) are agreed and executed
  • Conduct should-cost analysis for camera, depth, and optics modules to benchmark supplier pricing, identify cost drivers, and support negotiation strategies for optimal commercial outcomes
  • Close Statements of Work (SOW) for new projects covering tooling, automation, EVT/DVT/PVT builds, characterization, reliability testing, and failure analysis support
  • Influence supplier technology roadmaps and create internal disruptive value-add to ensure Meta’s system architecture and commercial requirements are met (size, weight, power, performance, reliability, and cost)
  • Establish and manage strategic supplier relationships at the executive level
  • lead QBRs, escalation paths, and long-term partnership planning

Requirements:

  • BS degree in Mechanical Engineering, Supply Chain, CS or related field
  • 7+ years of work experience in sourcing or related fields associated with camera/depth modules, optics components, consumer electronics modules, or adjacent electromechanical supply chains
  • Relevant experience in module integration management: supplier evaluation/selection, RFQ execution, cost modeling (BOM + conversion), contract negotiation, and supplier performance management
  • Experience driving cross-functional execution with Engineering, Quality, Ops/Manufacturing, and Program Management across development builds and ramp
  • Material management and CTB (Clear to Build) proficiency, manage lead times, allocation risk, and build readiness
  • Experience communicating with and influencing all levels of management

Nice to have:

  • Advanced engineering degree and/or MBA
  • Experience with high volume consumer electronics products and global manufacturing ecosystems
  • Experience sourcing and managing suppliers for optical components (lenses, coatings, filters, actuators, VCSEL/laser, receivers) and/or camera/depth module integrators
  • Optical understanding is preferred (imaging or depth fundamentals, key optical performance drivers), but not required
  • 7+ years of sourcing experience managing global suppliers across module integrators and critical component ecosystems
What we offer:
  • bonus
  • equity
  • benefits
