Job Description

About the Role

Tackpoint is looking for a Technical Buyer to help build and strengthen our supply chain as we continue to grow.

This is a hands-on, technical role for someone who enjoys working in the details — materials, specifications, inventory data, supplier performance, certifications, and lead times — and who wants to help design the purchasing and inventory systems that support a manufacturing organization.

This is not a passive purchasing or PO-processing role.

It’s a builder role for someone who wants real ownership and the opportunity to grow with the business.

What You’ll Do

Purchasing & Supplier Management

  • Source and evaluate suppliers for raw materials, tooling, consumables, and outsourced services
  • Analyze RFQs with attention to specifications, lead times, risk, and total cost
  • Create, manage, and follow up on purchase orders to ensure on-time, in-full delivery
  • Track open POs and proactively escalate risks that may impact production
  • Research and onboard new suppliers and support supplier performance improvement

Inventory Planning & Control

  • Own inventory accuracy and integrity within the ERP system
  • Ensure sufficient raw material inventory to support production while avoiding excess stock
  • Establish and maintain calculated reorder points, order quantities, and safety stock levels
  • Apply inventory best practices such as EOQ and demand-based planning where appropriate
  • Monitor inventory trends and proactively address shortages or overstock risks
  • Support and coordinate cycle counts and inventory discrepancy resolution
  • Technical & Quality Responsibilities

  • Read and interpret technical drawings and material specifications
  • Review and maintain material certifications (e.g., mill test reports)
  • Support ISO 9001 purchasing, inventory, and quality processes
  • Cross-Functional Coordination

  • Work closely with Manufacturing, Engineering, Quality, Estimating, and Shipping & Receiving
  • Support non-standard jobs by coordinating material readiness and supplier timing
  • Communicate clearly with internal stakeholders regarding inventory status and material risks
  • Systems & Continuous Improvement

  • Maintain accurate purchasing, inventory, and supplier data in the ERP system
  • Analyze usage, lead times, and supplier performance to support better decisions
  • Identify gaps or inefficiencies in purchasing and inventory processes and propose improvements
  • What We’re Looking For

    You’ll be a strong fit if you :

  • Are technically curious and comfortable working with data and specifications
  • Enjoy getting into the details and building systems that work
  • Are highly organized and reliable, with strong follow-through
  • Are comfortable using ERP systems and Excel
  • Take ownership and are willing to step beyond a narrow job description when needed
  • Want to grow your skills and responsibility as the company grows
  • Preferred Experience & Background

  • 2–5 years experience in purchasing, inventory planning, materials management, or manufacturing operations
  • Experience in a manufacturing environment strongly preferred
  • Post-secondary education in supply chain, engineering technology, manufacturing technology, or a related field is an asset
  • Familiarity with inventory planning concepts (EOQ, reorder points, safety stock) is an asset
  • Familiarity with ISO 9001 or quality systems is an asset
  • Why Join Tackpoint?

  • Real ownership and impact — your work directly affects operations and delivery
  • Exposure to technical materials, suppliers, and manufacturing processes
  • Opportunity to build and improve purchasing and inventory systems, not just follow them
  • A role designed to grow into senior buyer or supply chain leadership as the organization scales
  • Practical, collaborative, no-nonsense work environment
  • RRSP plan
  • New modern building
  • High-quality equipment
  • Great benefits
  • Competitive wages
  • Regular reviews
  • Work boot allowance
  • Prescription safety glasses program
  • If you’re looking for a technically grounded role where you can take ownership, build systems, and grow your supply chain skills in a manufacturing environment, we’d like to hear from you.
