Responsibilities

  • Design and implement an operational readiness model, and own ongoing governance once operationalized, ensuring no program advances without supply chain sign-off at defined development milestones.
  • Establish and manage a change control framework that ensures all product changes - errata, version revisions, and scope adjustments - are evaluated for operational and financial impact before execution.
  • Lead end-to-end launch readiness planning for new programs and editions, coordinating across Product, Marketing, Supply Chain, and Go-To-Market to ensure all operational criteria are met prior to commercialization.
  • Drive a launch readiness framework that synchronizes product timelines, demand forecasts, manufacturing capacity, inventory build, and distribution readiness for every release.
  • Own the product lifecycle register and govern formal version transition and end-of-life planning for all active programs, ensuring transitions are planned with enough lead time to prevent avoidable write-offs and customer disruption.
  • Partner with Finance and Supply Chain to support tracking and reduction targets, with progress reported quarterly to executive leadership.
  • Manage inventory drawdown strategies for sunsetting programs, coordinating customer migration timing with supply chain positioning to minimize excess and shortage risk.
  • Identify and flag lifecycle risks early - including version overlap, demand uncertainty during transitions, and end-of-life timing misalignment - and drive cross-functional resolution before exposure accumulates.
  • Cross-Functional Process Design & Governance - 35%
  • Define business requirements for operational product data - including item hierarchies, BOM structures, launch planning attributes, demand driver logic, and lifecycle designations - and partner with Technology and BizSys teams to implement within ERP systems.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience
  • 8+ years of experience in supply chain operations, product operations, program management, or a closely related field
  • Experience working across Product, Marketing, and Operations teams - able to translate between strategic intent and operational execution
  • If you are selected for employment, a background check will be required.
  • As required by state and local laws and district policies, you may be required to provide additional documentation, such as proof of vaccination, or submit to enhanced background screening, such as fingerprinting.

Nice to have

  • Familiarity with ERP systems (NetSuite preferred) and CRM platforms (Salesforce) in a supply chain or operations context
  • Background in inventory planning, demand forecasting, or product lifecycle management
  • Experience with modular or configurable product architectures - understanding how product design decisions impact fulfillment complexity
  • PMP, APICS CPIM, or equivalent certification
  • A track record of leading small, high-accountability teams in a matrixed organization.
  • Operate with urgency and precision - you can hold a big-picture view while managing the details that determine whether a program launches successfully
  • Are genuinely collaborative but comfortable holding a line when governance requires it
  • You Will Excel in This Role If You
