The right person has managed external manufacturing, co-manufacturing, and supply partners; led teams; improved operating processes; and worked cross-functionally to support growth. You should be comfortable moving between supplier conversations, operating issues, team leadership, and longer-term process improvement. This is not a role for someone who has only owned one narrow piece of the supply chain or who is several layers removed from day-to-day execution.

Location Candidates must currently be based in the San Francisco Bay Area and available for regular in-person work. This is not a remote position. Compensation The expected base salary range is $165,000-$195,000, depending on experience, plus an annual bonus and equity. If the role otherwise looks like a strong fit and your compensation expectations are close, we encourage you to apply. We’re happy to discuss the full compensation package before either side rules out a conversation based on base salary alone. Company details will be shared directly with qualified candidates during the process.
