Responsibilities

  • Lead the team responsible for how we build, manage, and scale our most critical supplier relationships across machine infrastructure.

  • Own the strategies that determine who CoreWeave buys from, on what terms, and at what risk — driving supplier selection, multi-sourcing decisions, technology roadmap alignment, RFQ and cost modeling, and the commercial execution of MSAs, SOWs, and long-term agreements.

  • Own the execution layer: OxM capacity management, Clear-to-Build tracking, allocation execution, shortage recovery, ODM sub-tier PO placement, forecast alignment, and NPI ramp readiness.

  • Move fluidly between both — setting strategy, building commercial frameworks, and then ensuring your team has the discipline and tools to deliver on the ground.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of progressive supply chain experience in enterprise hardware, data center infrastructure, or cloud/hyperscale environments.

  • Deep technical fluency across IT infrastructure hardware categories: GPU/CPU servers, NVMe SSDs and NAND flash technology, DRAM, high-speed networking (Ethernet and InfiniBand), optical transceivers (QSFP, OSFP), and switch platforms.

  • Proven track record of independently negotiating and executing large-scale, multi-year supply agreements with ODMs, OEMs, and component manufacturers at the $100M+ level.

  • Expertise in supply-demand planning, CTB tracking, and materials management for complex multi-tier hardware BOMs.

  • Experience operating at executive level — presenting to and influencing C-suite stakeholders on supply strategy, risk, and program trade-offs.

Qualifications

  • Strong analytical foundation: ability to build and interpret financial models, spend analyses, and supply/demand plans in support of strategic decisions.

  • Proven ability to operate with urgency and rigor in a high-growth, fast-changing environment.
