Job Description:
Job Description Job Description Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR) powers
the industries of today and tomorrow by connecting the people with
big ideas to the manufacturers who can bring them to life.
Xometry's digital marketplace gives manufacturers the critical
resources they need to grow their business while also making it
easy for buyers at Fortune 1000 companies to tap into global
manufacturing capacity. The Sourcing Specialist is an experienced,
detail-oriented professional responsible for resolving Xometry's
most challenging manufacturing projects. This role focuses on
manually coordinating and placing orders that fall outside of our
standard automated sourcing workflows. Sourcing Specialists manage
complex or escalated manufacturing projects. This involves in-depth
technical review, strategic problem-solving, and creative outreach
to ensure successful placement with qualified manufacturing
partners. This position requires a combination of sourcing
expertise, critical thinking, and strong cross-functional
collaboration. Specialists work closely with suppliers, customers,
engineers, and internal teams to identify solutions for unique or
high-priority orders. Projects involve a variety of manufacturing
processes, including CNC machining, sheet-metal fabrication, and
additive printing. Success hinges on both technical understanding
and sound judgment to achieve cost, quality, and delivery goals.
Day to Day: Manage a portfolio of advanced sourcing cases for
orders that require detailed technical or pricing analysis and
extended follow-up to get them placed with a production team.
Investigate root causes preventing supplier acceptance and develop
targeted recovery strategies for stalled projects. Review technical
documentation and manufacturing drawings with our engineers,
clients, or manufacturers, to validate feasibility and identify
potential risks or clarifications needed. Collaborate
cross-functionally with design engineers, manual quoters, case
managers, and sales to resolve technical or scheduling concerns.
Communicate directly with both suppliers and customers to clarify
requirements, negotiate terms, and align expectations. Maintain
comprehensive case notes and documentation to ensure leadership
visibility and continuity across active escalations. Provide
informal guidance and technical support to Sourcing Coordinators,
serving as a resource for more complex or unfamiliar situations.
Skills: Analytical and technically minded, with working knowledge
of manufacturing processes such as CNC machining, sheet-metal
fabrication, or additive manufacturing. Strong sourcing,
procurement, or supplier-management background, ideally in a
manufacturing or engineering-related environment. Ability to read
and interpret engineering drawings and basic GD&T. Competence
with online research and cost-validation for raw materials,
finishing services, etc. Clear and professional written and verbal
communication skills for coordinating between multiple
stakeholders. Organized and self-driven, with the ability to
prioritize and resolve longer-term or multi-stage sourcing cases.
Proficiency with Google Sheets and Docs (Salesforce experience a
plus). Qualifications: 3 years of experience in sourcing,
procurement, or supply-chain management, preferably within a
manufacturing or industrial environment. Demonstrated success
resolving complex supplier or production challenges. Ability to
manage competing priorities and deliver high-quality results under
time constraints. Comfortable making independent decisions within
defined pricing and policy parameters. Strong curiosity for
manufacturing and desire to expand technical knowledge. The
estimated base salary range for new hires into this role is
$68,000- $75,000 annually depending on factors such as job-related
skills, relevant experience, and location. We also offer a
competitive benefits package, including 401(k) match, medical,
dental and vision insurance; life and disability insurance;
generous paid time off including vacation, sick leave, floating and
fixed holidays, maternity and bonding leave; EAP, other wellbeing
resources; and much more. LI-Hybrid Xometry is an equal opportunity
