Supply Chain

• Own end-to-end sourcing strategy for critical spend areas across the UEV platform and follow-on advanced EV programs from sourcing strategy development through SOP, including supplier selection, contracting, and ongoing cost, quality, and delivery performance
• Partner with engineering from concept through launch to align sourcing strategy with technical roadmaps, design freeze milestones, and prototype-to-production transitions
• Structure commercial agreements that protect program timing without ceding cost leverage
• Build first-principles should-cost models with cross-functional teams to develop physics-based part and system cost perspectives
• Use cost models to set negotiation positions, evaluate quote submissions, and challenge supplier pricing line by line
• Lead make-vs-buy analysis
• Develop a resilient supply base by identifying and qualifying Tier 1 and Tier 2 partners across geographies
• Build dual-source and regional capacity strategies addressing raw material scarcity, geopolitical risk, and global trade and tariff changes
• Drive supply-chain automation and partner with suppliers on process automation and robotics opportunities
• Shape supply-chain tools and processes, including should-cost methodology, supplier and agreement management systems, and AI-enabled analytics
