About the role

We solve real-world problems with real hardware.
We move fast, take ownership, and hold a high bar for execution.
We value people who are low ego and team-first, calm under pressure, direct and respectful communicators, willing to roll up their sleeves, and focused on solutions, not drama.

Own the supplier relationship and program execution for key Asia-based suppliers (e.g., High Voltage Distribution and Power Electronics).
Drive on-time delivery of parts and assemblies aligned to NPI gates, build events, and validation milestones.
Maintain program visibility: track open actions, risks, and deliverables across multiple suppliers in parallel.
Lead structured weekly and milestone-based syncs with suppliers
Coordinate engineering changes (ECOs/ECRs) through suppliers - manage communication, timing, and supply continuity impact.
Engage deeply with supplier engineering teams on design requirements and manufacturing feasibility.
Identify technical risks in supplier processes or designs early and drive structured resolution.
Support DFM/DFA reviews and manufacturability feedback loops between suppliers and Range engineering.
Drive supplier readiness for prototype, pilot, and production builds - from tooling through FAI through build support.
Support incoming part quality issues: own containment, root cause, and corrective action with urgency.

5+ years of technical program or supplier management experience in a hardware-intensive industry (automotive, EV/HEV, aerospace, industrial electronics, or similar).
Demonstrated track record managing Asia-based suppliers - particularly in China - through NPI and into production.
Working knowledge of HV/EV powertrain systems, including HV batteries, power electronics, electrical distribution.
Experience driving supplier accountability through milestone gates, corrective actions, and continuous improvement - not just relationship management.
Language Requirement: Fluency in Mandarin Chinese and English (spoken and written) is required for this position.
Candidates must be able to conduct meetings, prepare written materials, and provide service in both languages.
Experience with Class 8 truck/trailer systems, freight electrification, or heavy-duty vehicle programs.
Experience using 3DEXPERIENCE, CATIA, or similar PLM/CAD platforms for supplier coordination workflows.
Knowledge of export control, customs, and cross-border logistics considerations for hardware supply chains.

Range Energy's compensation package includes a competitive salary, equity for all full-time roles, and a generous benefits package.

Proactively communicate status, risks, and program health to internal stakeholders - with appropriate detail and no surprises.

Range Energy will provide the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) and, if necessary, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), with information from each new employee's Form I-9 to confirm work authorization.
