At Northrop Grumman, our employees have incredible opportunities to work on revolutionary systems that impact people's lives around the world today, and for generations to come. Our pioneering and inventive spirit has enabled us to be at the forefront of many technological advancements in our nation's history - from the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean, to stealth bombers, to landing on the moon. We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work — and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history.

The individual will be a self-starter who is responsible for executing compliant procurement activities, providing contractual support, and completing/maintaining documentation with suppliers in support of development programs for the Emerging Capabilities Development (ECD) team.

Specific responsibilities include interfacing and corresponding with suppliers (including on the phone), develop sourcing/evaluation strategies; supplier identification; source selection; prepare/issue RFQs with appropriate customer flow downs and terms & conditions; proposal evaluation; conduct negotiations to meet contract/program targets/schedule, terms & conditions/payment terms for materials & services; administering resultant compliant purchase orders; ensure compliance with FAR/DFARS regulations and strict adherence to company Purchasing policies & procedures, especially cyber security requirements; validate pricing; and maintain proper Purchase Order files with correct documentation.
