Procurement Operations Manager at Cribl, Remote (United States)

Join our rapidly growing, late-stage startup as a Procurement Operations Manager, where automation and AI are central to how we scale. You’ll own and evolve the procurement operating engine, designing highly automated, data-driven workflows that leverage AI to streamline intake, approvals, renewals, and spend analysis, while continuously improving how procurement supports the business. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves experimenting with automation, applying AI in practical ways, and turning manual, fragmented processes into fast, intelligent, and scalable systems that leadership and teams rely on every day.

As An Active Member Of Our Team, You Will…

• Identify and implement opportunities to automate and innovate using AI, improving speed, accuracy, and stakeholder experience
• Own and run procurement operations end-to-end, including intake, approvals, contracting workflows, purchase orders, renewals, and vendor lifecycle management
• Manage, optimize, and continuously improve procurement tooling and integrations, including intake systems, contract workflows, and ERP connections
• Ensure high-quality, reliable data across vendors, contracts, renewals, and spend to support reporting and decision-making
• Partner closely with Finance, Legal, IT, Security, and People Ops to keep procurement processes smooth, scalable, and well-understood
• Drive operational excellence by defining, tracking, and improving procurement KPIs (cycle time, SLA adherence, automation rate, compliance)
• Build and maintain live dashboards that provide real-time visibility into procurement performance, spend, and pipeline health
• Deliver clear, actionable spend analysis to leadership and business partners, highlighting trends, risks, optimization opportunities, and savings impact
• Support vendor onboarding, renewals, and contract amendments in close partnership with the Head of Procurement
• Act as a trusted advisor to internal stakeholders, guiding teams through procurement with clarity, speed, and a strong customer mindset

If You’ve Got It – We Want It

• 3–5 years of experience in procurement operations, spend analysis, or process-driven roles
• Hands-on experience with modern procurement and finance tools, including Zip, NetSuite, and similar platforms
• A forward-looking, AI-first mindset — you enjoy automating workflows, experimenting with AI, and continuously improving how work gets done
• Strong stakeholder management skills; you’re a people person and influencer who can translate data into insights leaders care about
• Experience operating in high-growth, fast-moving environments, ideally in tech or SaaS
• Comfortable working with data, dashboards, and leadership-facing insights
