Job Description

Supply Chain & Procurement Specialist — Medical Devices

📍 Bedford, Massachusetts / Onsite | Full-Time

About the company

You’ll join a high-growth medical device company with recent FDA clearance , now ready to transition from R&D to full-scale commercial manufacturing. This is your chance to help build what matters — supporting teams developing life-changing products under real-world regulatory requirements.

What your impact will be

As a central node in the supply chain function, you’ll :

• Own purchasing and planning of components, raw materials, and services to support manufacturing, engineering, and clinical operations
• Ensure supply continuity by managing supplier relationships, performance metrics, and risk mitigation
• Translate demand forecasts and production schedules into accurate material sourcing plans
• Negotiate pricing, lead times, contracts, discounts, and delivery terms to optimize cost, quality, and reliability
• Maintain and improve planning data and processes within ERP / MRP systems
• Partner cross-functionally (quality, regulatory, manufacturing, R&D) to align on product launches, change control, and compliance
• Monitor key metrics (inventory turns, supplier scorecards, cost variance, shortage risks) and drive continuous improvements
• Participate in supply chain initiatives — e.g. new supplier development, lean practices, demand planning enhancements
