The Role

We are building a new purchasing team in Chennai, India, and are looking for a Buyer or Senior Buyer for electronic components. This is a strategic role that needs a real understanding of the global electronics ecosystem: navigating semiconductor cycles, managing relationships with top-tier manufacturers, and spotting technical opportunities in our designs. You will report to the Electronics & Electromechanics Purchasing Manager and act as the bridge between Engineering and the market.

Open to All Levels

We are hiring at Buyer and Senior Buyer level. As a guide, Buyers bring 3+ years of sourcing experience, and Senior Buyers 7+ years with ownership of a commodity, supplier portfolio or major negotiations. Apply with the experience you have and we will shape the scope around you.

What You'll Do

• Navigate the global and Indian EMS, component manufacturer and distributor landscape to secure the best partners
• Be the internal expert on semiconductor trends, memory market volatility and supply/demand shifts
• Review designs and BOMs to find alternative components (pin-to-pin or functional equivalents) with better lead times or cost
• Build strong relationships with major component manufacturers and global distributors
• Run RFIs, RFPs and RFQs, and negotiate Master Purchase Agreements that protect our agility
• Drive cost reduction and total-cost-of-ownership models without compromising technical integrity
• Support Engineering early in design to ensure design-for-availability
  
  

What You Will Bring

• 3+ years of sourcing electronic components and assemblies, ideally in automotive or two-wheelers (7+ for Senior Buyer)
• An electronics engineering or technical degree, or strong electronics manufacturing experience
• Knowledge of global semiconductor players (TI, ST, NXP, Analog Devices, Rohm, Infineon, Murata and others) and distribution
• Ability to read a schematic or BOM and spot diversification or optimisation opportunities
• Strong negotiation skills, from NRE costs to volume rebates and buffer stock agreements
• Fluent English is a must
