Industrial procurement & sourcing specialist improving cross-border equipment supply chains through strategic sourcing and supplier management.
What I'm looking for
I’m a procurement and sourcing specialist with 6+ years of experience supporting international supply chains across industrial equipment, manufacturing, and cross-border sourcing operations. I manage procurement workflows from supplier sourcing and RFQs to logistics coordination, shipment execution, and supplier relationship management across China and international markets.
My background blends technical education with hands-on industrial procurement and international trade operations in B2B environments. I’ve worked with industrial equipment suppliers, manufacturers, logistics providers, and international sourcing partners across China, Turkey, CIS, and global markets.
In my most recent role, I manage international procurement operations and supplier coordination for US-based cross-border supply chain projects. I coordinate sourcing, RFQs, pricing discussions, order execution, and export documentation, while monitoring supplier performance, inventory planning, and operational timelines.
I’ve also driven cost and visibility improvements through supplier negotiations, route optimization, and KPI-based procurement planning processes. Alongside that, I’ve supported supplier verification, contract coordination, logistics management, and customs documentation, and I’ve supervised a small procurement team of 3 specialists to coordinate daily operational workflows.
