As a quickly growing company focused on helping people live healthier and happier lives, we ensure that our team members have what they need to do their best work — both in and out of the office. We are looking for a Senior Manager of EMS Sourcing to own day-to-day Contract Manufacturing (CM) relationship management, commercial execution, and sourcing strategy across Oura's contract manufacturing base. This is a senior individual contributor role that sits at the center of Oura's most financially significant supply chain function — requiring someone who brings both deep EMS domain expertise and the influence, judgment, and presence to operate effectively across engineering, program management, finance, and external CM partners. Oura's hardware portfolio is expanding in complexity, with multiple concurrent NPI programs and an accelerating product roadmap. This role requires someone who can hold the commercial and operational details of multiple programs simultaneously, drive decisions without formal authority, and navigate ambiguity with confidence. You won't be managing a team — but you will be expected to lead. This role reports to the Director of EMS Sourcing and works closely with Hardware Engineering, Program Management, Finance, Legal, and Operations. What You Will Do: Own day-to-day CM relationships across Oura's contract manufacturing base — serving as the primary commercial point of contact for active programs and ensuring Oura is well-positioned at every stage of the engagement. Lead commercial negotiations including pricing, MVA structures, NRE, tooling, scrap and rework liability, and capacity commitments — with direct accountability for outcomes. Lead RFP and competitive bid processes for EMS/CM awards — defining sourcing strategies, driving strong supplier participation, evaluating proposals, and creating competitive tension to secure the best overall commercial and operational outcome. Lead commercial contracting in partnership with Legal for long-term supply and manufacturing agreements — shaping business terms, driving agreement structure, and translating contractual language into clear commercial positions, risk allocation, and operational obligations. Own post-award contract governance across CM partners — tracking compliance to commercial terms, key obligations, renewals, and amendments, and driving cross-functional follow-through when performance or documentation falls out of alignment.
