OPSWAT, a global leader in IT, OT, and ICS critical infrastructure cybersecurity, delivers an end-to-end platform that gives public and private sector organizations and enterprises the critical advantage needed to protect their complex networks, secure their devices, and ensure compliance. Over the last 20 years our commitment to innovative technology has earned the trust of more than 1,700 organizations, governments, and institutions globally, solidifying our role in protecting the world’s critical infrastructure and securing our way of life.

The Position

OPSWAT is a global leader in critical infrastructure protection — trusted by governments, defense agencies, and enterprise organizations across the world. We build technology that keeps the world's most sensitive environments secure. Our Singapore office is a strategic hub for our APAC and global operations, and this role sits at the center of that growth.

We are open to candidates who will be based on-site in Singapore, Tampa or Veszprém.

As our hardware business grows, we need a single global supply chain capability that serves customers across AMER, EMEA, and APAC.

We are building, not inheriting. This is an executive Global Head role for a strategic leader who can set the vision for a world-class supply chain, build the organization to deliver it, and stay close enough to operations to make sure it runs with precision across regions. You will be the single global owner of OPSWAT's supply chain: strategy, sourcing and manufacturing, quality, fulfillment, trade compliance, supply chain security, and organizational leadership. If you thrive in environments where you set the direction, build the team, and are accountable for the results, this is your role.

If you're interested in working as Global Head of Supply Chain at OPSWAT, please apply, and we will get in touch!

Oversee end-to-end global logistics, warehousing, and fulfillment to ensure on-time delivery at optimal cost, with strong governance over freight forwarders, customs brokers, and 3PL partners.
Cross-Functional Leadership
Partner with Product Management and Engineering on new product introduction, design for manufacturability, and BOM cost optimization.
Work alongside Creative and GTM teams to ensure packaging and branding deliver a premium customer experience.
