Job Description

At WHOOP, we’re on a mission to unlock human performance and healthspan. WHOOP empowers members to perform at a higher level through a deeper understanding of their bodies and daily lives.

WHOOP is seeking a VP of Supply Chain to lead our global sourcing and materials management functions. In this critical leadership role, you will oversee the strategy and execution for sourcing, procurement, materials readiness, and supplier management across all phases of product development and mass production. You will be a key voice in how WHOOP builds and scales its hardware and accessory ecosystem, ensuring performance, cost, and availability targets are consistently met or exceeded.

RESPONSIBILITIES :

• Build and lead a world-class sourcing and materials team, including GSMs / SSMs and MPMs, to support new product introduction (NPI), production ramps, and sustaining operations.
• Own global supplier strategy and relationship management across electronics, mechanicals, plastics, packaging, and accessories categories; ensure long-term supply continuity, quality, and cost optimization.
• Lead the negotiation and execution of strategic sourcing agreements, MSAs, SOWs, and cost models, including Should Cost and Bottoms-Up analysis, to support cost-down objectives.
• Partner cross-functionally with Hardware Engineering, Program Management, Quality, Manufacturing, Finance, and Global Operations to influence design decisions, optimize supply chains, and mitigate risks.
• Ensure WHOOP is always Clear-to-Build (CTB) by developing strategic material readiness plans and escalation protocols across all product lines and lifecycle stages.
• Maintain ownership of end-to-end BOM cost, tooling budgets, and cost forecasts, serving as the primary commercial lead for product cost health.
• Monitor and anticipate global supply trends, capacity risks, and regulatory changes to build resilient and scalable sourcing strategies.

QUALIFICATIONS :

This role is based in the WHOOP office located in Boston, MA. The successful candidate must be prepared to relocate if necessary to work out of the Boston, MA office.

Interested in the role, but don’t meet every qualification? We encourage you to still apply! At WHOOP, we believe there is much more to a candidate than what is written on paper, and we value character as much as experience. As we continue to build a diverse and inclusive environment, we encourage anyone who is interested in this role to apply.

WHOOP is an Equal Opportunity Employer and participates in E-verify to determine employment eligibility.  It is unlawful in Massachusetts to require or administer a lie detector test as a condition of employment or continued employment. An employer who violates this law shall be subject to criminal penalties and civil liability.

The WHOOP compensation philosophy is designed to attract, motivate, and retain exceptional talent by offering competitive base salaries, meaningful equity, and consistent pay practices that reflect our mission and core values.

For this position at WHOOP, we view total compensation as the combination of base salary, yearly bonus, equity, and benefits, with equity serving as a key differentiator that aligns our employees with the long-term success of the company and allows every member of our corporate team to own part of WHOOP and share in the company’s long-term growth and success.

The U.S. base salary range for this full-time position is $200,000 - $300,000. Salary ranges are determined by role, level, and location. Within each range, individual pay is based on factors such as job-related skills, experience, performance, and relevant education or training.

In addition to the base salary and competitive benefits, given the strategic importance of this leadership role, we anticipate that a substantial share of total compensation will be delivered through a competitive and generous stock option grant, complementing the base salary.

The base salary ranges may be modified in the future to reflect evolving market conditions and organizational needs. While most offers will typically fall toward the starting point of the range, total compensation will depend on the candidate’s specific qualifications, expertise, and alignment with the role’s requirements.
