Message

At Applied Materials, I manage procurement and vendor operations, negotiating with global suppliers and coordinating with Outside Processors to support operational alignment and SLA adherence.

I also provide supply chain updates and insights to Vice Presidents and Senior Managers, and conduct demand and market analysis to anticipate risks and support product availability.

At HP Inc / Mphasis, I managed a daily flow of 100–150 orders and developed management dashboards covering order status across LATAM. I partnered with planning, procurement, and logistics teams to resolve backorder issues, improving supply chain efficiency by 60%.

Earlier, at Concentrix, I provided technical support for Mac and iOS devices, achieving a 95% customer satisfaction rate. I bring experience in strategic procurement, SAP and S/4HANA, data analysis, and project management.
