    Why Libra?

    Libra is a fast-growing EMS company where your work makes a real impact. We offer a collaborative culture, opportunities to grow, and the chance to contribute to meaningful projects that support customers across industrial, medical, semiconductor, and aerospace markets.

    Position Overview

    The Director, Sourcing & Supply Chain – SE Asia is a newly created role focused on building, optimizing, and managing Libra's supplier network across Southeast Asia. This leader will drive all strategic sourcing activities—supplier identification, qualification, negotiation, and cost management—while also overseeing supply chain execution to ensure consistent

    delivery, quality, and operational performance. The ideal candidate brings deep sourcing expertise within electronics/EMS and complex manufacturing, strong knowledge of SE Asia supply markets, and the ability to operate independently in a new and evolving global footprint.

    Key Responsibilities

    Strategic Sourcing & Supplier Development (Primary Focus)
    • Lead end-to-end sourcing strategy in SE Asia for key commodities (PCBA, metals, plastics, cable harnesses, electro mechanicals, and value-add assemblies).
    • Identify, evaluate, and onboard new suppliers that support cost, quality, lead time, and capacity objectives.
    • Conduct supplier audits, maturity assessments, technical capability reviews, and risk evaluations.
    • Build a multi-country supplier roadmap that supports diversification, scalability, and long-term competitiveness.
    • Develop and maintain a deep understanding of regional market trends, cost drivers, labor structures, and geopolitical risks.

    Cost Management & Commercial Negotiation
    • Own commercial negotiations, contract structures, long-term pricing agreements, and competitive quoting cycles.
    • Build and maintain cost models to drive transparency and margin improvement.
    • Partner with engineering to implement value-engineering initiatives and optimize total cost of ownership.

    Supply Chain Execution & Operational Performance
    • Ensure site level excellence by managing MRP execution, supplier delivery performance, lead times, inventory flow, and issue escalation across SE Asia suppliers.
    • Collaborate with global logistics teams to optimize freight, routing, and crossborder movement of goods.
    • Monitor supplier adherence to schedule requirements and proactively address delays, shortages, and production risks.
    • Drive consistent operational alignment between suppliers and Libra's internal sites (US and Mexico).
    • Support S&OP processes with accurate supplier capacity, lead-time, and constraint insights.

    Quality & Compliance Partnership
    • Work closely with Quality and Engineering teams on supplier qualification, corrective actions, and ongoing performance monitoring. Drive supplier actions accordingly.
    • Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements (ISO, AS9100, ITAR when applicable) and customer-specific standards.
    • Support supplier scorecard development and continuous improvement initiatives. Cross-Functional Leadership
    • Partner with Program Management, Engineering, Operations, and Sales to support new product introductions, customer requirements, and long-term business planning.
    • Act as Libra's primary point of contact for SE Asia supply chain matters, communicating expectations, risks, and opportunities.
    • As the SE Asia strategy matures, help build and mentor a regional sourcing/supply chain support team.

    Requirements

    Qualifications Required
    • 10+ years of strategic sourcing, supply chain, procurement, or supplier development experience—preferably within EMS, electronics, aerospace/defense, or advanced manufacturing.
    • Deep exposure to SE Asia manufacturing regions and supplier markets (Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, etc.).
    • Demonstrated success negotiating major supplier contracts and managing high value supplier relationships.
    • Experience overseeing supply chain execution (delivery performance, logistics, inventory flow, escalation management).
    • Strong analytical and commercial acumen with proven ability to drive cost reductions and sourcing strategies.
    • Ability to travel extensively (50–75%) and operate independently in a global, matrixed environment.

    Qualifications Preferred
    • Existing supplier network in SE Asia.
    • Experience with PCBA, electromechanical assemblies, or complex engineered products.
    • Understanding of global logistics, import/export compliance, or ITAR controls.
    • Multilingual capability (Mandarin, Vietnamese, Thai, Malay, or Bahasa Indonesian).
