We're a company of people who like to forge our own path and leave the world better than we found it. Who believe that what makes us different makes us stronger. So add your voice. Make an impact. Find your fit — and your future.

Position Summary/Objective:

• Support the development and adoption of analytics, GenAI, AI-agent and decision intelligence products across Sourcing and Supply Planning. Work closely with the Senior Manager and global and regional partners across supplier performance, procurement and purchase-order execution, supply planning, inventory, capacity, constraints, supply-demand balancing and product development. The role combines business-facing domain analysis with hands-on capability across data, semantic modeling, dashboard visualization and AI-agent creation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Partner with Sourcing and Planning stakeholders to understand decisions, pain points, workflows and opportunities and convert them into analytical requirements, user stories and actionable products.

• Support Supply Planning analytics across supply-demand balancing, inventory and deployment planning, capacity and constraints, frozen horizon, lead times, backlog, service, reliability and planning exceptions.

• Support Sourcing analytics across suppliers and factories, procurement, PO execution, vendor OTIF, PO completeness, capacity, lead times, sourcing mix, cost, productivity, risk and corrective actions.

• Analyze the purchase-order lifecycle from requisition and order creation through confirmation, changes, production and shipment milestones, need dates, delivery commitments and exception resolution.

• Define and document KPIs, business rules, dimensions, grains, hierarchies, exclusions, targets and drill paths and validate data quality and reconciliations across planning, procurement and supplier sources.

• Work with IT Data & Analytics and Engineering to translate requirements into GCP data products and LookML semantic models and test joins, measures, dimensions, lineage and controls.

• Design, develop and iterate executive, tactical and operational dashboards in Google Looker, applying strong visualization, usability, scenario and exception-led design principles.

• Create and refine GenAI and AI-agent pilots for use cases such as PO visibility and exception management, supplier-risk analysis, planner copilots, lead-time intelligence, capacity risk and sourcing recommendations.

• Configure agent prompts, business instructions, grounding context, tools or workflows, evaluations, guardrails and human-review steps; test output quality, reliability and user value before scaling.

• Conduct exploratory, diagnostic and scenario analyses across demand changes, supply constraints, inventory strategies, supplier disruptions, sourcing mix, tariffs and service-cost trade-offs.

• Support predictive and prescriptive models with feature and business-rule definition, test cases, business interpretation and user feedback.

• Write user stories and acceptance criteria, support UAT, document solutions, train users and monitor adoption, usage and business impact.

• Contribute to cross-functional squads and actively share reusable semantic patterns, dashboard components, analytical methods and agent designs across the Planning & Analytics team.

Performance Expectations:

• Business partnership and insight
  • Deliver timely analyses and product requirements grounded in Sourcing and Planning decisions and workflows.
• Technical and product quality
  • Produce reliable semantic definitions, intuitive dashboards and well-tested AI agents with clear documentation and controls.
• Adoption and impact
  • Support successful pilots and scaled products that improve service, inventory, supplier performance, cost, risk, productivity or decision speed.

Qualifications and Skills:

• Education:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Industrial Engineering, Operations, Analytics, Computer Science, Information Systems, Business or a related field.
• Experience:
  • 3+ years of experience in sourcing, procurement, supply planning, inventory planning, supply chain analytics, data products, BI or AI-enabled solution delivery.
• Domain Knowledge:
  • Knowledge of one or more Sourcing or Planning areas and willingness to build end-to-end expertise across suppliers, POs, capacity, lead times, inventory, constraints and product development
• Data, Visualization and AI Skills:
  • Strong practical capability in SQL and data analysis, data profiling and validation, KPI logic, dimensional and semantic modeling, dashboard visualization and user-experience design. Working familiarity with GCP and Google Looker / LookML is strongly preferred. This is not a reporting-only role: candidates must also demonstrate hands-on fluency in GenAI and AI-agent creation, including prompt and instruction design, grounding, context configuration, workflow or tool integration, testing, evaluation, human-in-the-loop controls, monitoring and responsible-AI practices.
• Analytical Skills:
  • Able to structure ambiguous questions, analyze large datasets, identify drivers and exceptions, communicate findings and translate them into decisions or product features.
• Product Delivery:
  • Experience or strong aptitude in discovery, requirements, prototyping, agile collaboration, UAT, documentation, training and iterative improvement.
• Communication and Collaboration:
  • Fluent English communication required. Able to work effectively with planners, sourcing teams, analysts, engineers, product teams and leaders across regions.
• Leadership Abilities:
  • Proactive, self-directed and accountable. Influences through expertise, curiosity and responsiveness rather than authority.
• Strategic Thinking:
  • Connects individual metrics and analyses to service, inventory, working capital, supplier, sourcing, cost and enterprise outcomes.

Reporting Structure: Reports to the Senior Manager, Sourcing & Supply Planning Analytics. No direct reports.

• Location and Travel Requirements:
  • Mexico. Periodic travel to offices, suppliers or factories, regional teams and global team locations may be required.
• Additional Information:
  • Hands-on builder who is equally comfortable analyzing data, defining a semantic model, designing a dashboard, prototyping an AI agent and engaging directly with Sourcing and Planning users.
