About the Role
We're building production lines for a brand new fiber optic connector product driven by AI data center demand. Our automation team designs and builds custom equipment in house, and we need a technical project coordinator to keep every machine build on track. You'll own the material and schedule side of each build: turning engineering parts lists into orders, chasing long lead components, and keeping engineering, suppliers and the warehouse in sync from design release through commissioning.

Create purchase requisitions and POs in SAP and Ariba for machine components, tooling and capital equipment
Build and maintain BOM and material tracking for each machine build
Track and expedite long lead automation parts such as servo drives, vision hardware, robots and machined components
Resolve pricing, quality and lead time issues directly with suppliers
Receive and verify incoming material against packing slips, part numbers and certifications, and log receipts in inventory
Maintain project files, engineering drawings, revisions and quality certifications
Track build schedules and milestones, and publish status updates and meeting minutes
Independently resolve missing shipments, delayed orders and invoice issues
What You'll Bring
Technical degree or equivalent experience supporting engineering or manufacturing teams
Hands on experience with SAP (MM) and Ariba, or a similar purchasing system
Comfort reading BOMs, part numbers and engineering drawings
Strong attention to detail with specs and data entry
Advanced Excel plus Word, Outlook and Teams
Ability to prioritize urgent requests alongside daily work
Clear communication with engineers, project managers and suppliers
Nice to Have
Buyer experience with automation, electrical or machined components
Engineering background with an interest in growing into project management
Experience with MS Project or Smartsheet, document control or ECNs
Exposure to FAT/SAT, NPI or equipment transfers
Why This Role
You'll be at the center of a fast moving engineering program, working directly with the engineers building the machines and growing your technical project management skills on a new product.
