## Description

We're hiring a Technical Buyer for the Battery Energy Storage System (m/f/d) to lead design-to-cost, sourcing, and industrialisation for our Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) products.
You'll pair deep technical insight with commercial and manufacturing know-how to cut cost, improve manufacturability, lift supplier performance, and help us scale production in a fast-moving startup.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role in a fast-moving startup environment, where you'll challenge designs, influence key decisions, and implement practical improvements without compromising quality, safety, or reliability.
Your mission

 * Value Engineering & Design Optimization: Drive cross-functional DFM/DFA and value engineering initiatives. Review designs, technical drawings, and Bills of Materials (BOMs) to identify and execute opportunities for cost reduction, complexity minimization, and accurate cost estimation.
 * RFQ Management: Lead the end-to-end RFQ process for components, assemblies, and manufacturing services. Ensure clear specifications, enable accurate supplier comparisons, and establish dual-sourcing strategies for critical parts.
 * Commercial Negotiation: Support high-stakes negotiations covering pricing, lead times, payment terms, tooling investments, and long-term framework agreements to optimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
 * Supplier Performance & Quality: Partner with the Quality team to qualify suppliers, track performance via clear KPIs, and establish structured feedback loops.
 * Industrialization & Scalability: Partner with Engineering Team and Suppliers to continuously optimize manufacturing and assembly processes, ensuring scalability and consistent quality.
