    • Coordinate supplier onboarding, compliance reviews, and contracting activities in alignment with company policies and applicable regulatory requirements.
    • Collaborate with technical teams to evaluate supplier capabilities, manufacturing readiness, engineering maturity, and execution risk.
    • Maintain accurate procurement, subcontract, and supplier records within Deltek Costpoint and associated procurement systems.
    • Support development and continuous improvement of sourcing, subcontract management, and supplier performance management processes.
    • Escalate and resolve supplier performance, schedule, quality, or contractual issues while maintaining strong supplier relationships.

    • Demonstrated ability to operate cross-functionally with engineering and program leadership in dynamic, fast-paced environments.
    • Experience negotiating commercial agreements, SOWs, pricing, schedules, deliverables, and contractual terms.
    • Strong understanding of supplier performance management, milestone tracking, and program execution principles.
    • Ability to travel domestically up to 50% in support of supplier and program activities.
    • Strong organizational, analytical, negotiation, and communication skills.
    • Experience working within ERP systems (Deltek Costpoint preferred).

    • Opportunity to support major facility expansion projects as Shield AI continues to grow.
    • Work closely with engineering, facilities, and leadership teams to help build the infrastructure supporting next-generation autonomous systems.
