Job Description/Preferred Qualifications Role OverviewThe Supply Chain Program Manager is responsible for assessing, developing, and driving enterprise strategies to manage risk associated with critical and constrained materials impacted by legislative, environmental, and geopolitical forces. This role combines program leadership with handson stakeholder engagement, translating complex market and supply chain dynamics into actionable strategies, visibility, and decision support for crossdivisional leadership. For purposes of this role, Rare Earth Elements (REEs) and Critical Metals refer to materials essential to KLA products and operations that face elevated supply risk due to geopolitical, regulatory, environmental, or market constraints. This is an individual contributor role with no direct reports, requiring strong crossfunctional leadership and influence across a matrixed organization. Specific Responsibilities and Desired Skills Maintain deep expertise in critical minerals and constrained materials markets, continuously synthesizing supply, demand, regulatory, and geopolitical dynamics into concise, executiveready insights for leadership. Engage externally with suppliers, industry consortia, and relevant thirdparty organizations to monitor emerging risks, validate market intelligence, and inform constrained materials strategies. Continuously assess enterprise risk across identified and emerging critical minerals and constrained materials, translating findings into standardized dashboards that enable enterprise visibility and informed decisionmaking. Prepare and present executiveready materials for senior leadership forums, including steering committees and executive reviews, to support strategic decisions related to constrained materials risk. Perform "whereused" analysis across global products and supply chains to identify internal exposure and potential points of vulnerability. Lead the development and execution of constrained materials strategies informed by market realities, regulatory developments, and geopolitical tensions, ensuring timely and actiondriven risk mitigation. Lead complex, crossfunctional projects with rigor and discipline, driving execution, milestones, and accountability to deliver strategic objectives. Partner closely with Supply Chain, Engineering, Legal, Compliance, ESG, and other stakeholders to drive alignment and execution of constrained materials strategies. Navigate ambiguity and drive change in complex, uncertain, and rapidly evolving environments. Ability to project manage other supply chain risk initiatives on an as needed basis Provide ongoing insights informed by market trends and thirdparty intelligence platforms that may impact the supply chain, particularly in areas of geopolitical and emerging legislative risk. Hold crossfunctional stakeholders accountable to agreedupon program commitments, milestones, and deliverables. For projects and initiatives with varying risk profiles, define scope, timelines, team structure, deliverables, resource requirements, and budgets.
