Job description

Description
Invent the future with us.
Ampere is a semiconductor design company for a new era, leading the future of computing with an innovative approach to CPU design focused on high-performance, energy efficient AI compute.
As a pioneer in the new frontier of energy efficient high-performance computing, Ampere is part of the Softbank Group of companies driving sustainable computing for AI, Cloud, and edge applications.
Join us at Ampere and work alongside a passionate and growing team - we'd love to have you apply!
About the role:
Ampere is seeking a Senior Manager, Indirect Material Procurement for its Strategic Procurement team. This role partners with Ampere's engineering, finance, and corporate functions to source, purchase, and negotiate indirect materials, equipment, supplies, and services from vendors-while placing a strong emphasis on EDA-related spend and IP/technology licensing contracts. As a Sr. Manager, you will own and lead complex global sourcing initiatives for indirect categories, bringing deep enterprise supply management expertise to drive measurable value for the business, including effective management of EDA tools/subscriptions, services, and associated license/IP contractual terms.
What You'll Achieve:
  • Own category and enterprise procurement strategies for assigned indirect spend areas, aligning to business stakeholder priorities and corporate objectives-specifically including EDA toolsets, software subscriptions, support services, and related professional services.
  • Drive cost savings and value creation programs (e.g., cost reduction, TCO improvements, service optimization) through strategic sourcing and supplier performance levers-optimizing licensing models, renewal strategies, consumption/seat strategies, and support structures where applicable.
  • Lead end-to-end sourcing execution for complex requirements, including market research, segmentation, supplier shortlisting, and full RFI/RFQ/RFP life cycles for EDA and indirect technology-related categories.
  • Translate business needs into procurement outcomes by defining requirements, success criteria, evaluation approaches, and bid specifications in close collaboration with internal stakeholders (e.g., Engineering, Research, Product, IT, Finance).
  • Lead supplier partnership development for assigned indirect material and technology tool categories, building sustainable relationships and performance expectations with EDA and software vendors.
  • Manage supplier relationships at the strategic level, including negotiations, commercial alignment, and governance to reduce total cost of ownership and deliver ongoing value-focused on renewals, escalations, and long-term supply continuity.
  • Understand SOW and contracting requirements, ensuring procurement timelines, deliverables, and compliance are met in accordance with program and legal deadlines-particularly for software/subscription agreements, support SLAs, and IP/license terms.
  • Partner with Legal to negotiate and finalize commercial and legal terms (e.g., SLAs, pricing structures, amendments, risk allocation, contract terms), with a dedicated focus on IP licensing and technology contract elements such as:
    • license scope (field of use, territory, deployment model)
    • sublicensing/redistribution restrictions
    • indemnities and limitation of liability
    • audit/compliance requirements
    • confidentiality and data handling
    • support/maintenance and update rights
    • termination/renewal terms and migration/transition provisions
    • escrow/continuity considerations where relevant
  • Lead supplier business reviews (QBR/MBR), performance tracking, and supplier improvement plans; drive corrective actions and continuous improvement for both indirect materials and EDA/tool service performance.
  • Serve as a first escalation point for supplier crisis management related to assigned sourcing/projects, coordinating cross-functional responses as needed (e.g., EDA tool outages, support failures, urgent licensing needs, or IP/contract compliance issues).
  • Establish and improve procurement policies, procedures, and controls to ensure effective and compliant procurement execution across the business, including contracting controls for software/IP agreements.
  • Perform advanced data analysis and risk management, identifying sourcing risks, supply continuity concerns, and mitigation strategies-incorporating software licensing risk, usage/compliance risk, and IP exposure risk.
  • Oversee invoice and purchase order alignment for assigned spend areas, ensuring appropriate controls and resolving discrepancies, including renewal billing, true-ups, and license/admin fee alignment.

About You:
  • Bachelor's degree & 12+ years managing procurement activities from initiation to completion (including indirect procurement), with experience in supply management and strategic sourcing leadership; or Master's degree & 8+ years. Experience specifically engaging with EDA tools/software procurement and IP/licensing contract processes preferred.
  • Experience leading large/complex procurement projects globally-ideally including software/technology tool sourcing, renewals, and multi-year contracting.
  • Strong executive communication skills-ability to partner with engineering, finance, and corporate leaders and present clear risk/value tradeoffs, including commercial and IP risk tradeoffs.
  • Advanced negotiation skills with a track record of measurable savings and improved supplier performance-experience negotiating enterprise software/license terms, renewal structures, and support SLAs preferred.
  • Highly proactive leadership style, strong attention to detail, and strong ownership mentality.
  • Ability to adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment and operate effectively across competing priorities.
  • Demonstrated ability to multitask and prioritize in a dynamic, cross-functional setting.

What We'll Offer:
At Ampere we believe in taking care of our employees and providing a competitive total rewards package that includes base pay, cash long-term incentive, and comprehensive benefits. The full base pay range for this role is between $187,000 and $281,000, except in the San Francisco Bay Area where the range is between $204,000 and $306,000.
Our benefits include health, wellness, and financial programs that support employees through every stage of life.
Benefit highlights include:
  • Premium medical insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, as well as income protection and a 401K retirement plan, so that you can feel secure in your health and financial future.
  • Unlimited Flextime and 10+ paid holidays so that you can embrace a healthy work-life balance.
  • A variety of healthy snacks, energizing espresso, and refreshing drinks to keep you fueled and focused throughout the day.

And there is much more than compensation and benefits. At Ampere, we foster an inclusive culture that empowers our employees to do more and grow more. We are excited to share more about our career opportunities with you through the interview process.
