Start the Best Work of Your Career at Boom
At Boom, we’re building the world’s fastest airliner—and that takes more than cutting-edge engineering. It takes a supply chain built for speed, precision, and long-term partnership. As we scale up the development of Overture and Symphony, we’re looking for a Strategic Sourcing Manager to help us establish the supplier relationships that will make this aircraft and engine a reality.
This isn’t procurement-as-usual. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with programs, engineering, and legal to bring world‑class suppliers onboard, keep us ahead of risk, and ensure our sourcing strategy is aligned with the speed, quality, and sustainability Boom is known for.
Role Overview
Develop and drive Boom’s strategic sourcing vision across key commodities—both domestic and international
Lead cross‑functional RFI and RFP processes alongside engineering and legal teams
Build trusted supplier relationships through direct engagement, from technical deep dives to trade shows and strategic reviews
Negotiate critical supply agreements that balance cost, performance, and long‑term partnership
Define sourcing strategies that manage risk and support continuity of supply
Analyze industry trends and technology shifts to guide sourcing decisions and identify opportunities
Monitor supplier performance and maintain a supply chain risk matrix that enables proactive decision‑making
Establish and enforce purchasing policies that support compliance, accountability, and efficiency
Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across supply chain operations
Challenge conventional supply chain norms and foster creative solutions that optimize costs, accelerate delivery times, and drive value
Identify vertical integration opportunities to strategically streamline supply chain operations and strengthen control
Ideal Candidate
Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, or a related field
A strong track record in building and managing complex supplier partnerships
Confidence presenting ideas and plans to senior leadership and external stakeholders alike
High emotional intelligence and the ability to build consensus across engineering, legal, and finance
Deep comfort navigating ambiguity and juggling priorities in a high‑stakes environment
A detail‑oriented mindset paired with strong strategic instincts
What Will Set You Apart
MBA or advanced degree in supply chain, engineering, or business
Experience with international sourcing and global supplier management
Proven ability to lead cross‑functional initiatives and influence without direct authority
Passion for aerospace or high‑performance manufacturing
A reputation for being calm under pressure, creative in negotiation, and relentless in execution
Experience in a startup or high‑growth environment—you know how to build from scratch, adapt quickly, and thrive without a playbook
Background in the aviation or aerospace industry—you understand the stakes, the standards, and what it takes to deliver in a regulated, high‑performance environment
Thrived in a scrappy startup environment, leveraging resourcefulness and adaptability to drive innovative supply chain solutions, rapidly overcoming constraints to deliver impactful results
Compensation The Base Salary Range for this position is
$150,000 - $190,000
per year. Actual salaries will vary based on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Boom’s total rewards package for employees. Other rewards may include long term incentives/equity, a flexible PTO policy, and many other progressive benefits.
There is no set deadline to apply for this job opportunity. Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the search is no longer active.
To conform to U.S. Government aerospace technology export regulations (ITAR and EAR), applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
