At Boston Scientific, we’ll give you the opportunity to harness all that’s within you by working in teams of diverse and high-performing employees, tackling some of the most important health industry challenges. With access to the latest tools, information and training, we’ll help you in advancing your skills and career. Here, you’ll be supported in progressing – whatever your ambitions.           

About the role:

As part of the Global Sourcing organization, the Senior Supplier Engineering Manager – Acquisitions & Integrations is responsible for building and leading Boston Scientific’s acquisition-focused supplier engineering capability.

This role owns the end-to-end supplier integration strategy for acquisitions, from early technical diligence through post-close stabilization and scale. This role will lead a team operating in two distinct but tightly coordinated lanes:

• Supplier Engineering Leads (SE Leads): Responsible for upfront technical risk assessment, supplier capability evaluation, and long-term supply base strategy
• Deployment Supplier Engineers: Highly mobile engineers who embed at acquired sites and suppliers, executing hands-on remediation, stabilization, and supplier performance recovery

This role will define how these teams operate, where resources are deployed, and how supplier risks are identified, prioritized, and resolved. This role requires strong technical judgment, decisive leadership, and the ability to operate effectively in high-ambiguity, high-visibility acquisition environments.

This is not a steady-state operations role. Success is measured by how quickly and effectively acquired supplier networks are stabilized, de-risked, and scaled.

Boston Scientific was recognized by Forbes as one of the Best Workplaces for Engineers in 2026, reflecting a culture where engineers do meaningful work.

Boston Scientific was also recognized as a Glassdoor Best Place to Work in 2026, ranking No. 15 on the Top 100 list, reflecting the culture our employees experience every day.

At Boston Scientific, we value collaboration and synergy. This role follows a fully-onsite work model requiring employees to be in our local office five (5) days per week.

Boston Scientific will not offer sponsorship or take over sponsorship of an employment visa for this position at this time.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Lead and develop a high-performing acquisition supplier engineering organization, including both SE Leads and deployment-focused engineers
• Define and execute the supplier engineering strategy for acquisitions, spanning:
  • Technical due diligence
  • Supplier capability and capacity assessment
  • Post-close integration and stabilization
  • Long-term supply base design and qualification
• Establish clear operating models for:
  • SE Leads driving technical risk identification, supplier viability decisions, and long-term sourcing strategy
  • Deployment engineers executing on-site remediation, process stabilization, and supplier recovery efforts
• Own supplier-related risk identification and decision-making during acquisitions, including:
  • Supplier continuation vs. exit decisions
  • Dual sourcing strategy
  • Redesign or requalification triggers
• Partner with R&D, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, and Global Sourcing to align on design readiness, manufacturability, and supplier strategy for acquired products
• Direct and prioritize on-site deployment activities, including short-term relocation of engineers to acquired entities or critical suppliers to resolve performance gaps
• Drive resolution of complex supplier quality, capacity, and process issues, ensuring timely containment, root cause, and long-term corrective actions
• Build and implement standardized acquisition playbooks, tools, and metrics for supplier evaluation, integration, and performance tracking
• Influence supplier selection, negotiation strategy, and long-term partnerships in collaboration with Global Sourcing
• Communicate key risks, tradeoffs, and recovery plans to senior leadership and acquisition stakeholders with clarity and urgency
• Manage departmental resources, including headcount planning, budget, travel, and deployment logistics

Required qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related technical discipline
• Minimum of 8 years of professional engineering experience relevant to this role, including experience in supplier-facing roles
• Minimum of 5 years of professional leadership experience, including direct people leadership and leading technical teams or programs in complex environments
• Prior experience working with external suppliers in regulated manufacturing environments
• Strong foundation in problem-solving methodologies, statistical analysis, and process capability assessment

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience supporting acquisitions, integrations, and/or major supplier transitions
• Background in complex medical device systems, such as catheters, extrusions, or precision components
• Proven experience leading teams in high-ambiguity, fast-moving environments
• Experience building or scaling technical teams and operating models
• Strong understanding of supplier manufacturing processes, quality systems, and regulatory requirements
• Ability to make clear, timely decisions with incomplete information and stand behind those decisions
• Strong communication skills with the ability to influence senior technical and business leaders
