PCBA Sourcing Consultant - Based in China-

ROLE

We are screening a sourcing consultant for a European buyer building large renewable energy and industrial projects. You will find and qualify suppliers of PCB/PCBA, passive components, connectors, cable assemblies and battery packs across China and Southeast Asia.

Project-based, not full-time.


FOUR REQUIREMENTS

1. MUST BE BASED IN MAINLAND CHINA
You will be at factories in Guangdong several times a month, sometimes in Vietnam, Thailand or Malaysia. If you are not in China, the travel cost and time zone make this unworkable. Relocating to China? Say so and we will consider it.

2. MEETING-LEVEL ENGLISH
The client is European. You will be on calls, not writing emails through a translator.

3. INDUSTRY MUST BE PCB OR ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS
Consumer goods, furniture and industrial equipment do not transfer. We have already rejected candidates whose CV looked right but whose sector was wrong.

4. TECHNICAL JUDGEMENT
You need to understand how a part behaves in its installed environment, not just what the datasheet lists.


TEST YOURSELF BEFORE APPLYING

A project in Finland: -30°C in winter, +15°C in summer, a 45-50°C annual swing. The client needs passive components for equipment running in that range.

What do you check when selecting parts?

Good answers name specific failure modes — capacitance drift across temperature grades, ESR rise in electrolytics at low temperature, solder joint fatigue from CTE mismatch — and ask suppliers for thermal cycling test reports rather than room-temperature ones.

If the question means nothing to you, please do not apply.


WORK

- Screen CVs against category and technical requirements
- First-round calls in English, one-page assessment per candidate
- Factory visits in Guangdong; Vietnam / Thailand / Malaysia when needed
- Quote comparison, supplier claim verification, explicit flagging of what could not be verified


TO APPLY, SEND THREE THINGS

1. Your CV
2. A 1-2 minute voice recording in English, no script — how you would source one component category you know well: where you look, how you compare, how you verify
3. One sentence: which of the four requirements are you weakest on

Applications without the voice recording will not be reviewed.


COMMERCIAL

Scoped per assignment. Rate discussed after the first call. Guangdong travel included; cross-border trips priced separately.
