Role Purpose
This role sits within Software Operations & Scaling (SOS), the operationalization and scaling function for the SCS software portfolio under One MHS. SOS owns how products move from development into production at scale - including deployment, observability, standardization, and supply chain readiness.
This Supply Chain Manager will serve as the supply chain subject matter expert embedded within SOS - the bridge between product engineering teams and supply chain execution. The role does not own procurement or ordering. It owns the scalability lens - ensuring that what engineering designs can actually be procured, kitted, and deployed across future sites without manual heroics.
Why This Role Exists
As SCS products scale from pilot to network-wide deployment, the gap between "it works in the lab" and "it ships to 1,000 sites" becomes a critical risk. This role closes that gap by embedding supply chain knowledge directly into the scaling process - upstream, not after the fact.
Key job responsibilities
Partner with product engineering teams to integrate supply chain scalability into system design - BOM readiness, component availability, kitting feasibility
Develop scalable frameworks and playbooks that standardize the path from NPI through network deployment
Serve as the connective tissue between SOS engineering, Global Procurement, Strategic Planning, and Engineering Services - translating constraints into engineering requirements and vice versa
Build automation tooling that models supply chain readiness across the product lifecycle
Identify economies of scale across OMHS SCS products - shared components, common kitting strategies, unified logistics approaches
Create visibility dashboards that surface supply chain risks and bottlenecks early in the development cycle
Drive standardization of supply chain integration practices across greenfield and scaling products
Document repeatable, site-independent deployment playbooks
About the team
Software Operations & Scaling (SOS) is the operationalization engine for SCS under One MHS. We own how products move from development into production at scale. Our team bridges the gap between product engineering and network-wide execution - standardizing deployment, building observability, driving automation, and now embedding supply chain intelligence directly into the scaling process. We operate with a builder mindset: small team, high ownership, big impact.
