The posting

ABOUT US

Harmattan AI is a next-generation defense prime building autonomous and scalable defense systems. Following the close of a $200M Series B, valuing the company at $1.4 billion, we are expanding our teams and capabilities to deliver mission-critical systems to allied forces.

Our work is guided by clear values: building technologies with real-world impact, pursuing excellence in everything we do, setting ambitious goals, and taking on the hardest technical challenges. We operate in a demanding environment where rigor, ownership, and execution are expected.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Global Sourcing Manager Sensors & Optics, you own the supply chain strategy and sourcing for Harmattan AI’s optical assemblies and advanced sensor technologies. You are the first hire in this specialized area, working side by side with Engineering, Product, Program and Production. You secure the parts, materials and manufacturing services that are critical to our systems, balancing cost, reliability and quality as we scale.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Define and execute the global sourcing strategy for optical and sensor technologies.

- Source specialized components, materials and manufacturing services for optical assemblies and sensor subsystems.

- Build and manage a strategic supplier network across emerging and established product lines.

- Vet vendor technical capabilities alongside engineering teams, covering performance, quality systems and production readiness.

- Negotiate and structure robust commercial terms that optimize unit economics and protect supply continuity.

- Identify and de-risk supply chain exposure across a complex, rapidly scaling electronics supply chain.

- Partner with Engineering, Product, Program and Production to align sourcing decisions with design and delivery priorities.

- Own supplier performance on cost, lead time and quality, and travel to supplier sites as needed.

CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS

- Master’s degree in Purchasing, Supply Chain or a related field.

- 5 to 8 years of experience sourcing optical, imaging or sensor technologies, ideally in defense, aerospace or other high-reliability industries.

- Strong technical understanding of sensors and optical assemblies, enough to challenge suppliers and engineers on feasibility and quality.

- Proven commercial skills in negotiating contracts and managing supplier relationships.

- Full ownership mindset, with the ability to build a function from scratch in a fast-paced environment.

- Willingness to travel regularly to supplier sites.

- Full commitment to Harmattan AI’s mission, vision and growth plans, with a willingness to go the extra mile.

- Fluency in French and English required.

We look forward to hearing how you can help shape the future of autonomous defense systems at Harmattan AI.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
