Launched in 2020 and backed by leading venture capital investors like FirstMark (who also supported Airbnb, Shopify, and Pinterest), we already serve hundreds of clients globally, including forward-thinking tech leaders such as TeamViewer, sennder, tonies, and On.

As an IT Buyer at Sastrify, you will be the engine behind our customers' SaaS procurement operations. This is a unique opportunity to work directly with the tech stacks of some of the most innovative companies in the world.

Your mission is tactical execution: managing the end-to-end purchasing lifecycle, ensuring no renewals are missed, and securing the best possible terms for our customers through active negotiation and market benchmarking. You will turn procurement requests into successful contracts, acting as the vital link between customers and vendors.

You’ll be working closely with Hani Mattar, our Head of Procurement.
