Procurement Lead at Supabase · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

Own vendor relationships: run our primary cloud and SaaS vendor relationships end-to-end (AWS, GCP, Cloudflare, CloudQuery, ClickHouse, and more), leading renewals and negotiations alongside Finance and Legal.
Run procurement governance: enforce our competitive-bid process for incoming requests and manage larger procurement through our managed-procurement partner, keeping oversight and accountability with FinOps.
People management: Build a healthy, high-trust team culture in a remote-first, globally distributed environment. Run 1:1s, performance management, career development, and onboarding for your direct report(s).Handle people admin (leave, time off, etc.) for your team.
Manage team’s delivery and accountability: Own the team's roadmap and project management (Linear), driving accountability and clear milestones. Manage workflow intake and Slack triage. Own the team's weekly updates and keep stakeholders aligned without creating overhead.
Drive commercial VIA: own spend visibility and unit economics, surface licensing and usage inefficiency before it becomes a surprise, and drive renewals, right-sizing, and tooling consolidation to realized savings.
Build reporting and governance: vendor and SaaS cost reporting is the unowned gap today and your highest-leverage area in the first year. Build the dashboards and reporting hands-on, partner with our data teams to scale them, and own the governance layer (spend policies, thresholds, accountability).
Coordinate the cloud efficiency program: keep optimization initiatives visible and tracked from commitment to realized savings, partnering with Engineering without taking over their delivery.
You Might Be a Good Fit If You
Have 8+ years in vendor/commercial management, procurement, FinOps, or technical/financial analysis, at a senior, function-owning level.
Have owned vendor relationships, contract negotiations, and renewals, and treat them as a lever on unit economics.
Have run procurement governance such as competitive-bid processes, benchmark analysis, approval thresholds, or managed-procurement partners.
Have high judgment and can hold a position and drive alignment without positional authority.
