Overview Veeco is seeking a Senior Commodity Manager to lead strategic sourcing for New Product Introduction (NPI) and platform enhancements of advanced semiconductor capital equipment, including MOCVD, ALD, and Ion Beam systems. This role owns end-to-end commodity strategy where supply continuity, technology alignment, and supplier performance directly impact innovation, scalability, and customer delivery.

The role requires close collaboration with Design Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Operations, and Supply Chain teams.

- Solid understanding of purchasing fundamentals, including supplier selection, cost analysis, and negotiation.

- Act as sourcing lead within NPI program teams, aligning sourcing strategies with product roadmaps and milestones.
- Partner closely with Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, and Supply Chain to balance cost, quality, innovation, and supply continuity.
- Drive early supplier engagement to influence design for manufacturability (DFM), cost, lead time, and scalability.
- Develop technical understanding of electro-mechanical subsystems, including vacuum hardware, precision components, and electrical assemblies.
- Translate engineering drawings and specifications into effective sourcing strategies.
- Select, qualify, and manage suppliers supporting complex semiconductor capital equipment.
