A globally leading consumer device company headquartered in Cupertino, CA is looking for Program Coordinator to work directly alongside CMM Global Supply Manager to co-drive two parallel workstreams: driving structured raw material risk mitigation best practices with suppliers and engaging suppliers to reduce raw material risk exposure. This is a hands-on, externally-facing role that sits at the intersection of supply chain risk, supplier management, and program operations.
Responsibilities:
Lead structured supplier conversations independently: preparing for, facilitating, and following up on mitigation-focused discussions with suppliers to drive commitment to action.
Develop and deliver personalized feedback to supplier respondents, translating self-assessment data into clear, actionable improvement recommendations.
Build and maintain program tracking infrastructure in a digital database
Coordinate the expansion of the program to new suppliers
Monitor geopolitical developments and commodity market signals relevant to critical minerals and materials, flagging events that may affect supplier risk levels or sourcing concentration.
Support cross-functional escalations to Engineering and Procurement where material qualification, substitution, or dual-source approval is required.
Contribute to executive-level reporting: synthesizing program status, risk reduction progress, and supplier response data into clear, decision-ready summaries.
Qualifications:
Preferred qualifications:
3+ years of experience in supply chain, procurement, commodity management, or a related operations function.
Experience in a supplier-facing or externally-engaging role; comfort running meetings and driving follow-through independently.
Familiarity with critical minerals, raw materials, or global commodity markets is a plus but strong curiosity and willingness to learn is equally valued.
Bachelor's degree in supply chain, business, international relations, economics, or a related field; advanced degree a plus.
Type: Contract
Duration: 6 months with extension
Work Location: Cupertino, CA (hybrid)
Pay rate: $67.00 - $82.00/ph (DOE)
