  • Implement supplier risk mitigation strategies, dual-sourcing models, and cost optimization measures.

Master Scheduling & Supply Chain Planning

  • Oversee the development of Master Production Schedules (MPS) aligned with demand forecasts and capacity constraints.
  • Monitor KPIs such as on-time delivery, inventory turns, and production efficiency to guide planning decisions.
  • Collaborate with internal teams (Sales, Operations, Procurement, Logistics) to optimize supply and demand balance.
  • Use APS tools and ERP systems to enhance visibility, forecast accuracy, and scheduling efficiency.

Project Execution & Equipment Lifecycle Management

  • Coordinate the end-to-end lifecycle of Owner-Furnished Contractor Installed (OFCI) equipment from purchase through commissioning.
  • Work with construction partners and field operations to ensure timely installation readiness and contractor support.
  • Monitor inventory locations and recommend capital asset reallocation to maximize cost avoidance.
  • Oversee shipping, rigging, and storage logistics for major equipment deliveries.

Data & Process Management

  • Ensure data integrity across procurement and scheduling systems through documentation, audits, and continuous improvement.
  • Develop playbooks, training materials, and business process documentation in collaboration with internal stakeholders.
  • Lead digital transformation initiatives to automate and streamline planning and procurement workflows.

Stakeholder & Supplier Management

  • Define and monitor supplier KPIs, SLAs, and business review cadences (weekly check-ins, QBRs, performance improvement plans).
  • Build strong relationships with external suppliers and internal stakeholders to ensure transparency, alignment, and accountability.
  • Support change management activities for project updates, escalation resolution, and budgetary realignments.

Who You Are

  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Engineering, Business Administration, Operations, or related field (Master’s preferred).
  • 7–10+ years of combined experience in procurement, supply chain planning, master scheduling, or infrastructure project management.
  • Strong understanding of data center construction and critical MEP categories.
  • Skilled in contract negotiations, supplier management, risk mitigation, and cross-functional coordination.
  • Hands-on experience with ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, Netsuite), APS tools, and planning software.
  • Comfortable managing high-value contracts (> $50M) and leading multi-vendor execution strategies.
  • Proven ability to implement new processes, lead teams, and drive performance improvement initiatives.
  • Willingness to travel (up to 20%) to data center sites, vendor facilities, and industry events.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
