Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

E-Space is building a next-generation LEO satellite constellation and the supply chain to support it. As Program Supply Chain Manager, you will own the end-to-end Supply Chain / Procurement execution function — from subcontract formation / piece part purchase through to delivery performance and cost control — while providing direct program support across our active spacecraft & terminal development efforts.
 

This is a hands-on, early-career role. You will own the full supply chain and procurement function: from raw material sourcing and supplier qualification through purchase order execution, material planning, logistics, and delivery of finished goods. There is no hand-off — this product line is yours.

 

You will work directly with Engineering and Supply Chain team on the floor and in the system. If you want a desk job, this isn’t it. If you want to build something and own it, read on.

  • Identify, qualify, and onboard suppliers with Operations Lead for all raw materials, substrates, deposition materials, and bought-in components
  • Identify, qualify, and onboard suppliers with Technical Lead for all spare parts, and maintenance cycles / schedules
  • Establish and maintain the Approved Vendor List (AVL) for the product line
  • Manage (with operations lead) supplier performance, scorecards, and corrective action
  • Lead supplier audits and capability assessments
  • Own the RFQ/RFP process for all materials and services
  • Negotiate pricing, lead times, and commercial terms
  • Issue and manage purchase orders through to delivery and close-out
  • Establish contract templates and quality flowdown requirements
  • Manage long-lead and critical material advance buy decisions
  • Translate production schedules and forecasts into material requirements
  • Manage inventory levels, safety stock, and cycle counts
  • Own kitting and material staging with Production Lead to support ongoing production
  • Identify and mitigate schedule risk driven by material availability
  • Maintain spare parts inventory
  • Manage inbound freight, customs, and import compliance
  • Ensure export control compliance for all supply chain activity
  • Classify materials and manage HTS/ECCN and hazardous materials requirements as applicable
  • Own item master, supplier master, and BOM integrity in the ERP system
  • Define and maintain supply chain reporting — spend, lead times, open POs, risk
  • Support WMS/ERP implementation and ongoing data hygiene
  • Maintain the supply chain risk register for the product line
  • Monitor supplier financial health, geopolitical exposure, and single-source dependencies
  • Drive dual-source or safety stock strategies where risk warrants
  • 1–5 years of experience in supply chain, procurement, or operations — manufacturing or hardware environment strongly preferred
  • Comfortable working directly with suppliers, on the production floor, and in ERP systems — this is a doing role, not a coordinating role
  • Strong attention to data integrity: BOMs, item masters, PO records, and supplier documentation
  • Experience with or exposure to export control requirements (ITAR/EAR, HTS/ECCN classification)
  • Experience with thin film, photovoltaic, semiconductor, or advanced materials supply chains
  • Familiarity with NetSuite, SAP or similar ERP/WMS platforms
  • Exposure to aerospace, defense, or other regulated manufacturing environments
  • Understanding of quality flowdown, AS9100, or supplier qualification processes
  • Location & Eligibility
