ABOUT US

Reframe Systems is a Physical AI and robotics company on a mission to make high-performance housing attainable and abundant in the communities where people want to live. Through our vertically integrated delivery model and highly automated microfactories, we deliver climate-resilient homes and buildings with greater speed and predictability than traditional construction.

Our volumetric modular buildings are produced in our Andover, MA microfactory, with a growing pipeline across North America and a new microfactory on the way. We are building a system that balances repeatability with site-responsive design, enabling homes adaptable to each site, community, and customer need. Our cross-disciplinary team brings together architecture, robotics, design engineering, software, factory operations, and field delivery to change how housing gets delivered.

We’re reimagining the future of housing through a smarter and more sustainable system that empowers people to live better. Come build it with us.

THE ROLE

We’re hiring a Construction Materials Procurement & Supply Chain Lead to own the flow of materials from design decision to installation, across both the factory and the field.

This is a player–coach role. You will roll up your sleeves to run a lot of the day‑to‑day work (RFQs, POs, expedites, supplier management) for active single- and multi-family residential projects. In parallel, design the simple, reliable procurement and inventory system that future projects and factories can run on.

REQUIREMENTS

Make sure materials never stall the schedule

Own material availability for both factory and jobsite, from permit set through installation.

Build and run a clear playbook for long‑lead items so projects are not delayed by materials.

Reduce stockouts in kitting and on the floor by setting and managing min/max levels and reorder logic for stocked parts.

Build the procurement & inventory “operating system”

Turn today’s bill of materials, purchase logs, and ad‑hoc processes into a documented, teachable process that goes from permit set → BOM → RFQs → POs → receiving → kitting → project closeout.

Consult with software and finance teams on our bill of materials and materials data standards: part numbering, stock vs off‑the‑shelf rules, and how BOMs must be structured to be procurable and traceable.

Stand up a simple but robust inventory tracking approach using Google Sheets + QuickBooks + existing tools, and use it as the basis for future ERP / WMS requirements.

Lead supplier strategy for construction materials

Source and manage suppliers for structural lumber, sheathing, windows, doors, cabinets, MEP equipment, finishes, and other construction materials – for both factory and field.

Negotiate pricing, terms, and programs; launch 2–3 strategic supplier relationships in high‑impact categories (e.g., windows, cabinets, structural lumber).

Decide when to buy‑to‑job versus buy‑to‑stock, balancing cash, space, and risk.

Be embedded with designers, engineers, and operations

Work closely with cross-functional teams to connect material choices to cost, lead‑time, installation effort, and supply‑risk.

Propose and analyze material alternatives and supplier options; co‑decide on changes that affect building systems, permitting, or installation.

Partner with Factory Operations, Production, and Site Operations to ensure material plans actually work on the floor and on site.

Shape our future systems

Translate real‑world workflows into clear requirements for a future ERP / WMS, in partnership with Software Teams and Finance.

Act as the primary operational stakeholder when we evaluate and implement more advanced systems in the next 1–2 years.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE IN YOUR FIRST YEAR

Projects hit key milestones without material‑driven delays.

A working procurement + inventory playbook is in place and used by the team.

We have a clear, accurate view of inventory and material spend that can be used in internal reviews and board discussions.

At least 2–3 strategic supplier programs are live with measurable improvements in cost, lead‑time, or reliability.
