Original job description

As the global leader in high-speed connectivity, Ciena builds the critical infrastructure powering the AI era. We’re a technology company shaping the future of networking, guided by innovation, integrity, and collaboration. Through development opportunities, meaningful work, and flexibility, Ciena supports growth and well-being - on and off the job. Connect with a career that matters.

Accelerate cost reduction, improve supply security, and shape the materials strategy behind Ciena’s next generation of products. This senior leadership role sits at the intersection of supply chain, engineering, and manufacturing, driving Phase‑In Phase‑Out (PIPO) execution to strengthen competitiveness, reduce risk, and unlock measurable business value.

How you will make an impact:

Lead Phase‑In Phase‑Out (PIPO) execution with contract manufacturers to accelerate timelines, maximize cost reduction, and improve supply continuity
Drive material transitions that enable cost reduction, quality improvement, product retirement, and new product introduction
Optimize PIPO timing, risk management, and excess prevention to accelerate financial impact
Partner closely with Product Engineering and Research and Development (R&D) to anticipate upcoming changes and integrate material strategies early
Provide material constraint visibility into Product Engineering and R&D forums, including demand, inventory levels, purchase order coverage, and excess exposure
Identify and execute material optimization opportunities, including last‑time‑buy (LTB) strategies and rework initiatives
Escalate third‑party supply risks and collaborate with the Global Commodity team to ensure security of supply

The must haves:

10+ years of experience in materials planning, procurement, new product introduction, production line management, and/or product engineering
Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Operations Management, Business Administration, or Engineering
Proven ability to lead cross‑functional teams and achieve results through external manufacturing services (EMS) partners
Strong analytical capability, including scenario modeling and “what‑if” analysis
Deep understanding of materials management, Material Requirements Planning (MRP), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems
Excellent communication and negotiation skills with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels
Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining attention to detail and driving continuous improvement

Nice to haves:
• Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing methodologies or Six Sigma frameworks (Green Belt or Black Belt)
• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification

Engineering or technical background
Experience supporting multi‑site, multicultural manufacturing environments
Advanced proficiency with supply chain and business intelligence tools, including E2open, Informatica, Hyperion, or advanced Excel automation

Pay Range:• The annual pay range for this position, in Canada, is:

$92,300.00 - $147,500.00

Pay ranges at Ciena are designed to accommodate variations in knowledge, skills, experience, market conditions, and locations, reflecting our diverse products, industries, and lines of business. Please note that the pay range information provided in this posting pertains specifically to the primary location, which is the top location listed in case multiple locations are available.

Non-Sales employees may be eligible for a discretionary incentive bonus, while Sales employees may be eligible for a sales commission. In addition to competitive compensation, Ciena offers a comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision plans, participation in 401(K) (USA) & DCPP (Canada) with company matching, Employee Stock Purchase Program (ESPP), Employee Assistance Program (EAP), company-paid holidays, paid sick leave, and vacation time. We also comply with all applicable laws regarding Paid Family Leave and other leaves of absence.

At Ciena, we are committed to building and fostering an environment in which our employees feel respected, valued, and heard. Ciena values the diversity of its workforce and respects its employees as individuals. We do not tolerate any form of discrimination.

Ciena is an Equal Opportunity Employer, including disability and protected veteran status.
