What I'm looking for

I seek a global or remote role in procurement/product operations where I can drive strategic sourcing, optimize costs, collaborate cross-functionally, and support scalable medical-device manufacturing while ensuring quality and timely delivery.

I am a results-driven healthcare operations and procurement professional with 6+ years of experience specializing in medical devices, prosthetics, and precision machine components. I centrally managed procurement for Japan-based operations and international markets, maintaining Japanese quality standards and minimizing production downtime.

I have proven expertise in strategic sourcing, vendor development across APAC and EMEA, and cross-functional collaboration with engineering, production, clinical, and quality teams to translate product requirements into vendor specifications. I completed an MBA in International Business and training in SAP MM (P2P, S/4 HANA) and SAP FI-CO modules to strengthen my ERP and procurement systems capabilities.

My accomplishments include streamlining international import documentation, improving component availability planning, reducing procurement-related delays, and enabling uninterrupted manufacturing and clinic operations across multiple countries. I am adaptable to global work cultures and experienced in managing complex logistics, compliance, and supplier performance.
