What I'm looking for

I'm seeking remote procurement, purchasing, or supply chain analyst roles with an international team.

At JS Engineering Systems, I manage $75M+ in direct and indirect procurement spend, working with 20+ US-based vendors and sustaining a 95% service level. I also build weekly shortage reports and procurement analyses in Excel and Power Query to flag supply risks for US stakeholders.

Earlier at JS Engineering Systems, I handled full-cycle procurement for US client Allied Power Q, processing 135+ purchase orders a month for electrical distribution products. I standardized procurement procedures and vendor coordination, cutting lead times by 40%, and trained 7+ junior team members.

At ECOMERA, I coordinated supply chain operations across suppliers, warehouses, freight forwarders, and customs. I tracked shipments on real-time dashboards to improve visibility and forecast reliability for planning teams.
