THE ROLE:

This role owns the strategic balance between commercial procurement excellence and advanced manufacturing oversight across

Yubico's hardware supply chain. Given our specialized product nature, the primary mission is to optimize the balance between cost,

time, and quality while ensuring impeccable relationship governance, absolute supply chain stability, and robust risk mitigation

through the development of viable backup plans.

The focus split is 60/40 in favor of Procurement over Engineering. The ideal candidate will be a sharp commercial negotiator

capable of managing complex commodity indexing (e.g., precious metal prices affecting electronics) and multi-year capacity

reservations with our most vital partners. Simultaneously, they will lead an experienced engineering team to secure our

proprietary in-house programming infrastructure, protect co-developed IP, and navigate New Product Introductions (NPI) from a

supply standpoint.

The role reports to VP - Supply Chain Operations and is located at Yubico’s head office in Stockholm.

TASKS & RESPONSIBILITIES:

1. Procurement, Strategic Sourcing and Relationship Governance (60% Focus)

Strategic Partner Governance: Manage and mature relationships with our core co-manufacturing partners, navigating complex

commercial conversations and aligning supplier expectations with evolving business needs.

Commercial Governance and Process Ownership: Act as the internal owner of all hardware procurement processes. In close

collaboration with Legal, lead the drafting, negotiation, and execution of Master Services Agreements (MSAs), Quality Assurance

Agreements (QAAs), and commercial contracts to ensure Yubico's corporate interests and assets are fully protected.

Capacity and Contract Modeling: Secure complex, multi-year capacity reservations with our most critical vendors while hedging

against volatile underlying commodity and electronic material prices.

Supply Chain Resiliency: Where applicable, transition the supply chain from single-source dependencies to a resilient,

dual-sourced ecosystem with viable backup plans, without disrupting historical partner dynamics.

Packaging Portfolio Management: Oversee and manage our packaging supplier portfolio, addressing reliability issues and

establishing rigorous performance standards to ensure consistent supply.

Team Mentorship: Coach and elevate the team to professionalize day-to-day purchasing, track spend transparency, and manage

contract compliance.

2. Manufacturing, Automation and In-House Production (40% Focus)

In-House Programming Infrastructure: Support the development, scaling, and operational uptime of Yubico’s proprietary in-house

production and programming/flashing stations.

Structured Engineering Leadership: Provide structured management to a highly experienced team of mechanical and automation

engineers, channeling their expertise into well-documented processes.

IP Protection in Co-Development: Establish strict operational and legal boundaries for the automation lines, fixtures, and

parts our engineering team co-designs with suppliers, ensuring Yubico’s proprietary innovations are contractually protected.

Quality Safeguards: Oversee the Supplier Quality domain to enforce strict cosmetic and technical standards, ensuring only the

top tier of manufacturers operate in our ecosystem.

3. NPI and Cross-Functional Integration

Product Launch Readiness: Serve as the operational anchor for new product launches. Drive proactive, flawless communication

ahead of launches to ensure all suppliers, sub-suppliers, and internal teams are aligned on NPI milestones.

One Supply Chain Umbrella: Partner intimately with Planning, Logistics, and Fulfillment to ensure procurement strategies, lead

times, and capacity reservations map perfectly against rolling demand forecasts.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

Experience: 10+ years of hardware/industrial supply chain experience, heavily weighted toward electronics procurement, supplier

relationship management, and contract structural design.

The Versatile Career Background: Ideally exhibits a proven blend of experience—having cut their teeth within highly

disciplined, mature industrial organizations to learn world-class operational structure, combined with clear success inside

agile, fast-moving scale-ups that move at pace.

The "Hybrid" Skillset: A seasoned commercial leader who is entirely comfortable negotiating multi-million dollar capacity

commitments, but possesses enough technical depth to lead automation and mechanical domains.

NPI Proven Track Record: Deep, hands-on experience guiding complex electronic products through difficult New Product

Introduction (NPI) phases under tight deadlines.

Diplomatic Commercial Acumen: Proven ability to handle difficult, high-stakes supplier conversations with diplomacy, protecting

the relationship while securing Yubico’s operational and financial interests.

Operational Rigor: A builder who can walk into an ecosystem running on low-documentation and implement clean, scalable

processes, acting as a trusted, professional partner to our innovative design and engineering teams
