Job Description:

We are looking for a motivated and technically capable R&D Supply Chain Specialist to join our fast-moving Global Supply Chain Organization in support of engineering. This role supports hardware development activities by coordinating sourcing, procurement, and material readiness for engineering teams developing complex electronic systems. You will work closely with engineering, manufacturing, and suppliers to help ensure development builds stay on track amid evolving designs, supply variability, and changing schedules. The role requires adaptability, strong execution skills, and a solid understanding of electronics supply chains, including PCB manufacturing and hardware prototyping. You should be comfortable working in a dynamic environment and supporting multiple priorities under tight timelines.

Job Responsibility:

  • Support electronics engineering teams working on multiple, fast-moving hardware development projects
  • Translate early-stage concepts, evolving BOMs, and engineering change updates into sourcing and procurement actions with guidance from senior team members as needed
  • Provide timely input to engineers on component availability, alternates, obsolescence risks, and quick-turn manufacturing options
  • Identify potential material or supply issues early and escalate risks while supporting workaround identification
  • Execute sourcing and procurement activities for electronic components, PCB fabrication, PCBA assembly, connectors, sensors, RF parts, embedded modules, and custom mechanical parts
  • Respond to BOM updates and design changes to help ensure prototype and pilot builds remain on schedule
  • Coordinate with approved suppliers to support quick-turn and small-batch production needs
  • Support identification and validation of alternative components or sourcing paths during shortages or supply disruptions
  • Interface with electronics suppliers to collect information on lead times, manufacturing capabilities, DFM considerations, and expedited build options
  • Support technical and commercial assessments of PCB/PCBA vendors, machining partners, and component distributors
  • Assist with expediting manufacturing slots, shipments, and prototype orders under tight timelines, escalating constraints when required
  • Work closely with engineering, manufacturing, program management, and operations to support build readiness and issue resolution
  • Maintain visibility into prototype schedules, engineering changes, and material risks, providing regular status updates
  • Demonstrate a proactive execution mindset by following up on open items, clarifying uncertainties, and helping close gaps efficiently
  • Track supply risks across assigned development programs and support mitigation actions
  • Maintain accurate sourcing documentation, cost tracking, and procurement data in ERP and related tools
  • Contribute to continuous improvement efforts by supporting evaluation of new suppliers, sourcing channels, manufacturing partners, and tools

Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, Supply Chain, or a related field
  • 3–5 years of experience in electronics sourcing, component procurement, or engineering supply chain roles within hardware development environments
  • Working technical understanding of electronic components, PCB fabrication, PCBA assembly, embedded electronics, and prototyping workflows
  • Ability to operate effectively in dynamic environments with changing priorities and tight timelines
  • Experience reviewing electronic schematics, BOMs, AVL requirements, PCB stackups, and manufacturing documentation
  • Familiarity with ERP systems and engineering or project management tools
  • Clear communication skills and a structured, solution-oriented approach to problem-solving

Nice to have:

  • Experience in R&D-focused hardware teams, startups, or fast-paced product development organizations
  • Familiarity with PCB/PCBA vendors, distributors, and electronics manufacturing partners
  • Certifications (APICS, PMP, Six Sigma) are a plus but not required
  • Exposure to rapid-prototyping suppliers, global component marketplaces, and digital sourcing tools
What we offer:
  • Occupational healthcare, occupational, and accident insurance
  • A yearly benefit budget to spend as you wish (i.e. on sport, transport, bike benefit, wellness, lunch, etc.)
  • Phone subscription with iPhone of choice
  • Relocation support (i.e. flight tickets, accommodation, relocation agency support)
  • Time for self-development, research, training, conferences, or certification schemes
  • Inspiring and collaborating offices and silent workspaces enable you to focus
