11+ Years Global Experience | End-to-End Supply Chain, Procurement, Logistics & ERP Expertise | Open Work Permit – Canada (2028)
I am an experienced Supply Chain and Procurement professional with over 11 years of international experience supporting electronics manufacturing, PCB supply chains, and global sourcing operations across major manufacturing regions including China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Germany, Canada, and the United States. I have extensive experience managing procurement and supplier coordination for single-layer, double-layer, and multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs), high-frequency RF boards, FR-4 and specialized polymer-based substrates, and electromechanical components used in advanced electronics manufacturing. My work involves ensuring reliable sourcing of critical production materials while effectively managing supplier lead times, international logistics, cost efficiency, and supply continuity.
My expertise includes strategic sourcing, procurement of electronic and electromechanical components, and supply chain coordination supporting PCB assembly and electronics production environments. I have hands-on experience working with Bills of Materials (BOM), MRP-driven material planning, supplier lead-time analysis, and global component sourcing to support manufacturing schedules and maintain optimal inventory flow. I have coordinated procurement for components such as semiconductors, integrated circuits, microcontrollers, RF modules, antennas, connectors, capacitors, resistors, sensors, power management devices, and PCB assemblies used in wireless communication and industrial electronics systems.
Throughout my career, I have supported supply chains across industries including electronics manufacturing, information technology hardware, industrial equipment, pharmaceuticals, and consumer products, building strong expertise in global vendor sourcing, supplier performance management, and cost optimization within complex multi-country supply networks.
I am passionate about developing resilient supply chains, strengthening supplier partnerships, and ensuring uninterrupted production through efficient procurement and data-driven planning. I have extensive experience working with enterprise platforms such as SAP (SD, MM, PP, WM), Oracle NetSuite, Sage (Premium, X3, 300, 500, X), Pronto ERP, and Transportation Management Systems, enabling effective material planning, purchasing control, and supply chain visibility.
With strong capabilities in vendor management, procurement negotiations, demand planning, BOM cost analysis, and international logistics coordination, I bring a proven track record of improving operational efficiency, reducing supply risk, and ensuring the timely availability of critical materials required for manufacturing operations.
