About the Company

World is a network of real humans, built on privacy-preserving proof-of-human technology, and powered by a globally inclusive financial network that enables the free flow of digital assets for all. It is built to connect, empower, and be owned by everyone.

This role is with Tools for Humanity in our San Francisco office.

About the Team and the Role

The Devices team at Tools for Humanity is responsible for driving and coordinating all aspects of new product introduction - from concept prototypes all the way to mass production. As a GSM, youll work on one of the most ambitious products of our time, and will partner with industry leading peers in economics, on-device machine learning, novel cryptographic research and hardware design.

You will help design and bring up our supply chain, lead supplier engagement strategy, and enable scale by partnering closely with industrial design, hardware and software engineering, optics, market operations, legal and finance. Your leadership both internally and with suppliers will ensure that our new devices can be built cost-effectively at scale, meet quality and compliance standards, and are delivered on time.

Our company moves fast and we will look to you to learn quickly, build strong relationships both internally and externally and make thoughtful decisions with conviction and efficiency. This high-impact and high-autonomy role is foundational to ensuring our hardware products reach billions of people globally. Our compensation is competitive and this is an opportunity to build together with a driven and collaborative team.

As a Global Supply Manager (GSM) with Tools for Humanity, you will:

  • Lead commercial engagement and manufacturing scaling strategy for our devices
  • Partner closely with internal cross-functional teams and with our contract manufacturers to ensure quality and manufacturability of the designs
  • This role based in San Francisco would require 30-50% travel
  • Secure supplier capacity and scale volume manufacturing to meet demand
  • Source and qualify new suppliers, conduct market search and technology analysis
  • Negotiate the terms and pricing of our partnerships
  • Assess and mitigate supply chain risk
  • Understand our technology, operations and mission and develop successful, long-term supplier relationships globally
  • Build trust and lightweight yet scalable processes with all cross functional teams

About You

  • You have 7+ years of experience developing and managing global supplier relationships and bringing high-volume products from concept to mass production
  • A Bachelor's Degree in a technical field (e.g., mechanical, industrial, or electrical engineering) is preferred, but equivalent practical experience in supply chain, manufacturing, military service, consulting, or finance will also be considered. An MBA or a Masters degree in supply chain is a plus
  • A natural ability to operate autonomously across multiple teams in situations of extreme ambiguity, with only high-level direction
  • Ability and curiosity to quickly learn and dive deep into designs and underlying technology but keep a fast pace of operational execution
  • Effective communication skills both with peers and with executive teams
  • You are an experienced negotiator, capable of developing leverage for new technology and industry and structuring complex deals
  • You have experience structuring and negotiating legal frameworks for new IP development and licencing, Master Supply Agreements for scaled manufacturing, Capex investment schedules and custom SOWs as business needs come up
  • You are familiar with bottoms-up cost modeling and have knowledge of cost structures for various electromechanical commodities
  • You have taken several products to market and can thoughtfully balance the requirements at different stages of the product development cycle (proto, EVT, DVT, PVT, MP)
  • You are able to roll up your sleeves, solve tactical challenges fast and ensure daily supply meets demand, while keeping the bigger picture and strategy at the forefront
  • Fluency in English is a must. German language skills are a plus.

What we offer in San Francisco

  • An open and collaborative office space in downtown SF
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Monthly Phone Reimbursement or a company device
  • Top-tier medical, dental, vision insurance
  • 401k + employer match program
