ABOUT THE JOB
Strategic Supply Chain, Industrial Base Operations is a key strategic and operational role responsible for architecting, implementing, and governing priority rating frameworks (e.g., DPAS) and defense supply chain resilience across the enterprise. As the company scales rapidly to support mission-critical defense programs, safeguarding material availability and accelerating delivery timelines are paramount. In this role, you will serve as the enterprise operational authority ensuring defense priority requirements are seamlessly integrated into procurement, ERP/MRP workflows, supplier contracts, and program delivery schedules.

Strategic Commodity De-Risking: Collaborate with Supply Chain teams to identify critical commodities and supply chain bottlenecks where priority ratings can mitigate material risk; proactively lead cross-functional initiatives to secure and apply these ratings across programs. Single Source of Truth & Data Architecture: Build, manage, and scale a centralized data repository capturing strategic commodities, program allocations, rating statuses, active purchase orders, supplier flow-downs, identified risks, and open corrective actions. Contract Flow-Down & Supplier Execution: Partner with tactical and strategic procurement teams to ensure priority ratings and mandatory flow-down requirements are accurately reflected on purchase orders and legally binding supplier commitments. Enterprise Systems & Workflow Integration: Collaborate with Business Systems, IT, and Operations to embed priority rating logic and traceability into core enterprise platforms, including ERP, MRP, P2P, Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), and business intelligence dashboards. Executive Alignment & Reporting: Deliver high-visibility reporting and operational briefings to senior leadership, VPs, and stakeholders detailing rating coverage, process deficiencies, material exposure, and strategic decisions required. Enterprise Roadmapping & Operating Posture: Serve as a strategic advisor to executive leadership to establish annual supply priorities, assess corporate defense industrial base posture, and design continuous-improvement roadmaps to mature the company's operating model. Policy Translation & Process Scale: Translate complex defense regulations, statutory mandates, and industrial base policies into actionable business processes, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), RACI matrices, templates, and company-wide training programs.REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
