About Carlos Ocasio

With over 18 years of experience in IT purchasing and procurement, I am a certified and skilled professional who can deliver optimal solutions for organizational IT needs and budgets. As the IT Procurement Manager at Align, I oversee the entire procurement process, from sourcing to contracting, for various IT products and services, such as hardware, software, cloud, security, and network. I also conduct internal audits, product cost analysis, and direct sales to ensure quality, efficiency, and compliance. Previously, I was a Purchasing Agent at Myriad Supply, where I negotiated and managed contracts with vendors and suppliers for IT equipment and solutions. I am passionate about finding the best value and quality for IT investments, while supporting corporate mission and vision. I bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the team, as well as strong communication, negotiation, and analytical skills. I am always eager to learn new technologies and trends, and to collaborate with other IT professionals and stakeholders.
