Technical Procurement & Supply Chain Specialist

Location 10920 West Sam Houston Parkway North,Suite 100,Houston, TX, 77064,United States Employee Type Full Time Exempt Required Degree 4 Year Degree Description Company Overview Amogy is a clean tech energy company redefining how power is delivered. Through our innovative technology, we are unlocking ammonia as a practical, carbon-free energy carrier for reliable power. Our technology converts ammonia into hydrogen on demand, enabling dispatchable power for mobility applications and for sites where the grid is constrained, unreliable, or insufficient. As demand for power accelerates, Amogy is building the energy systems to deliver it, cleanly, reliably, and at scale. Job Summary Amogy is seeking a highly motivated Technical Procurement & Supply Chain Specialist II to support commercialization of Amogy's ammonia-to-power technology by building the supplier ecosystem that enables product scale-up. This role is responsible for identifying, sourcing, and qualifying equipment suppliers and technical service providers through internal prototype builds, then translating those learnings into supplier strategies, approved-supplier lists, sourcing packages, and contract-manufacturing handoff requirements. In Amogy's operating model, internal prototype and development builds are used to de-risk supplier capability, quality, lead time, documentation, technical fit, and manufacturability. Repeatable production manufacturing will be managed by contract manufacturers, with Amogy maintaining ownership of critical supplier strategy, technical qualification, source control, and supplier risk management. The ideal candidate combines procurement discipline with technical curiosity, NPI discipline, and outsourced manufacturing experience. This individual can translate drawings, bills of material, specifications, datasheets, statements of work, prototype-build feedback, and engineering changes into executable sourcing strategies, RFQs, supplier qualification plans, purchase orders, and contract-manufacturer launch packages. This is not a production floor management role; it ensures contract manufacturers have the qualified supply base, documentation, and escalation support needed to execute production. In addition to supplier development and technical sourcing responsibilities, this role supports material planning, inventory strategy, ERP/MRP data integrity, and supply chain readiness activities required for commercialization and production scale-up. Key Responsibilities Supplier Strategy, Technical Sourcing & Qualification Identify, evaluate, and qualify equipment suppliers, fabricators, technical service providers, and sources for custom and off-the-shelf equipment, skids, vessels, instrumentation, controls, electrical assemblies, process equipment, MRO materials, and technical services aligned with Amogy's product roadmap and contract-manufacturing scale-up. Lead RFI, RFQ, and RFP activities, bid analysis, supplier selection, and award recommendations based on technical fit, capacity, certifications, quality systems, total cost, lead time, serviceability, and scalability. Partner with Engineering and Quality to define source-controlled items, qualification criteria, preferred and dual sources, acceptance requirements, inspection documentation, and supplier technical deliverables. Maintain approved supplier lists, supplier scorecards, risk maps, source-control logic, and supplier development, conditional approval, or disqualification decisions. Prototype Build Procurement & Supplier Learning Procure materials, equipment, fabricated assemblies, and technical services for internal prototype and development builds used to validate supplier capability before contract-manufacturing launch. Translate BOMs, drawings, specifications, datasheets, statements of work, and engineering changes into supplier bid packages, purchase orders, first-article requirements, and technical documentation requests. Coordinate supplier participation in trial orders, fit checks, inspections, test support, documentation reviews, nonconformance resolution, corrective actions, substitutions, and post-build lessons learned. Capture prototype-build performance data, including quality, delivery, cost, responsiveness, manufacturability, and documentation completeness, and convert it into supplier approval, development, or exit actions. Contract Manufacturing Readiness & Production Handoff Create contract-manufacturer-ready sourcing packages with approved sources, contacts, quote history, costed BOM inputs, tooling and NRE status, quality requirements, long-lead risks, supplier documentation, and open qualification actions. Align with contract manufacturers on procurement ownership, turnkey versus consigned material assumptions, supplier flowdowns, source-control expectations, change control, logistics responsibilities, and escalation paths. Support transfer of prototype BOMs and supplier learnings into repeatable production procurement plans executed by contract manufacturers while keeping production, purchasing, and manufacturing management with the contract manufacturer. Monitor critical-item readiness and serve as Amogy's escalation point for source changes, shortages, commercial risks, technical qualification issues, and supplier performance concerns affecting production launch. Negotiate prototype and production‑intent pricing, terms, Incoterms, lead times, warranties, NRE/tooling costs, capacity assumptions, statements of work, supplier agreements, change orders, and quality or contractual flow downs in partnership with Legal. Drive ERP/MRP data integrity, including BOM structures, lead times, supplier records, item master accuracy, planning parameters, and inventory transaction controls to support effective material planning decision making. Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, and Operations to maintain material planning parameters, inventory strategies, safety stock levels, reorder points, and demand signals within ERP/MRP systems to ensure material availability for prototype builds, testing activities, and commercialization programs. Support inventory planning, material forecasting, shortage management, excess and obsolete inventory reduction, and supply‑demand balancing across development and production environments. Coordinate logistics for prototype and qualification materials, including domestic and international shipments, packaging, import/export considerations, delivery documentation, and supplier shipping requirements. Build scalable procurement processes, KPIs, dashboards, risk registers, bid templates, and governance gates for supplier qualification, approved‑source management, contract‑manufacturing handoff, and launch readiness. Act as a cross‑functional supply chain resource supporting procurement, planning, inventory management, logistics coordination, supplier development, and commercialization initiatives as business priorities evolve. Requirements Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in supply chain management, Business Administration, Engineering, Operations Management, or a related field; equivalent technical procurement experience will also be considered. 6+ years of experience in technical procurement, supply chain planning, sourcing, supplier management, inventory management, material planning, NPI, or commercialization of engineered products. Demonstrated experience identifying and qualifying suppliers through prototype, pilot, development, first‑article, or NPI builds and transitioning learnings to contract manufacturers or outsourced manufacturing partners. Ability to interpret BOMs, drawings, specifications, datasheets, statements of work, engineering changes, supplier quotes, inspection requirements, certificates, and technical documentation. Strong working knowledge of RFQs, bid analysis, negotiations, purchase orders, commercial terms, supplier performance management, corrective actions, documentation control, and ERP/MRP systems, NetSuite preferred. Develop and manage supplier performance metrics including quality, delivery, responsiveness, cost competitiveness, and risk mitigation initiatives.
