Position Description

Supply Chain is not a support function here. Our job is to be embedded with Engineering early — shaping equipment specs and supplier strategy before decisions are locked in, not sourcing against a finished design.

The Sourcing Manager, Power Facilities owns category strategy and execution for major PowerBlock equipment — air-cooled condensers, heat exchangers, feed pumps, rotating equipment, and balance-of-plant systems. This role partners directly with Engineering on specification and packaging decisions, builds competitive supplier options across the category, and negotiates agreements that hold suppliers accountable for cost, schedule, and quality.

Responsibilities

Build and own a documented sourcing strategy for PowerBlock equipment categories, including ACCs, heat exchangers, feed pumps, and rotating equipment

Identify opportunities to split or repackage scope across multiple suppliers to reduce cost and schedule risk

Track market pricing and supplier capacity across the category to inform award decisions

Engage Engineering early on equipment specifications and packaging strategy

Bring supplier and market insight into design reviews before requirements are finalized

Lead commercial negotiations for PowerBlock equipment purchases, from RFQ through contract execution

Structure contracts and delivery terms that protect schedule and give Fervo visibility into supplier performance

Manage supplier relationships and performance across the category post-award

Partner with Logistics and Expediting to maintain delivery of long-lead equipment by site-required installation dates

Qualifications

Required

5+ years of sourcing, procurement, or category management experience, ideally in power generation, industrial equipment, or capital projects

Preferred

Experience sourcing air-cooled condensers, heat exchangers, or other rotating/stationary power generation equipment

Familiarity with tariff and domestic content considerations affecting equipment sourcing
