Sourcing Strategy & Process Lead

$153k - $230k

Pure Storage

Everpure (NYSE: P) has evolved from storage pioneer to data platform, closing fiscal 2026 with $3.7 billion in revenue, its first billion-dollar quarter, and accelerating growth into FY27. Our strategic agenda spans the companies defining the next era of technology - hyperscalers, AI labs, the AI hardware supply chain, data platform providers, and the broader AI ecosystem. This type of work—work that changes the world—is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us.

THE ROLE

As the Sourcing Strategy & Process Lead, you will drive the strategic frameworks, analytics, and operational mechanisms that elevate our global sourcing capabilities. Operating as a senior strategic connector, you will partner cross-functionally with Sourcing, Engineering, Finance, Legal, and Operations to optimize commercial decisions, mitigate supply chain risks, and scale best-in-class procurement playbooks. While commodity managers own direct category relationships, you create the methodologies, market intelligence models, and executive decision-making tools that empower our entire organization to negotiate smarter, move faster, and build resilient long-term supplier partnerships.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Strategic Sourcing & Negotiation Frameworks: Partner with Commodity Managers and cross-functional leaders to architect multi-year category strategies, risk-evaluation frameworks, and negotiation playbooks that drive business impact across major RFQs, long-term agreements, and strategic supplier selections. Process Governance & Operating Mechanisms: Own and continuously refine company-wide strategic sourcing mechanisms, establishing standardized decision frameworks, contract handoffs, and governance workflows that increase execution speed and operational rigor. Analytics & Business Intelligence: Establish executive-level reporting mechanisms and financial business cases that track spend, savings, supplier concentration, and market trends to convert complex supply chain data into actionable commercial recommendations. Cross-Functional Leadership & Capabilities: Lead multi-commodity strategic initiatives across Sourcing, Planning, Engineering, Legal, and Finance while coaching team members on advanced negotiation strategies, analytics, and executive communication.

WHAT YOU BRING

Proven track record of architecting strategic sourcing frameworks, establishing procurement governance, and leading complex commercial negotiations across technology, hardware, or supply chain environments. Deep expertise in supplier management, contract structures, total cost modeling, supply chain risk analysis, and sourcing economics. Demonstrated ability to influence executive leadership, align cross-functional stakeholders (Engineering, Finance, Legal, Operations), and drive complex organizational initiatives without direct authority. Advanced proficiency in translating complex market intelligence and data into executive-level reporting, financial business cases, and strategic recommendations. We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara office in compliance with Pure’s policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave. Salary ranges are determined based on role, level and location. For positions open to candidates in multiple geographical locations, the base salary range is reflective of the labor market across the applicable locations. This role may be eligible for incentive pay and/or equity. There is no application deadline and we accept applications on an ongoing basis until the job is filled. The annual base salary range is:

$153,000 - $230,000 USD

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US:

Innovation : We celebrate those who think critically, like a challenge, and aspire to be trailblazers. Growth : We give you the space and support to grow along with us and to contribute to something meaningful. We have been named Fortune's Best Workplaces in Technology™, Fortune's Best Workplaces in the Bay Area™, and certified as a Great Place to Work®! Team : We build each other up and set aside ego for the greater good. And because we understand the value of bringing your full and best self to work, we offer a variety of perks to manage a healthy balance, including flexible time off, wellness resources, and company-sponsored team events. Check out purebenefits.com for more information.

ACCOMMODATIONS AND ACCESSIBILITY:

Candidates with disabilities may request accommodations for all aspects of our hiring process. For more on this, contact us at View email address on click.appcast.io if you’re invited to an interview.

OUR COMMITMENT TO A STRONG AND INCLUSIVE TEAM:

We’re forging a future where everyone finds their rightful place and where every voice matters. Where uniqueness isn’t just accepted but embraced. That’s why we are committed to fostering the growth and development of every person, cultivating a sense of community through our Employee Resource Groups and advocating for inclusive leadership.
