Position Summary

HackerOne is seeking a Senior Manager of Procurement to own and evolve our global procurement function. Reporting to the Vice President, Associate General Counsel, this role is highly hands-on and execution-focused, balancing strategic thinking with day-to-day delivery. The Senior Manager will drive cost effectiveness by driving competitive bidding, strong vendor management, and streamlined purchasing processes.

This leader will improve and scale procurement operations by implementing automation, optimizing systems for usability, and ensuring compliance with both external regulations and internal policies. With a background in technology and experience managing complex vendor relationships, the Senior Manager will partner effectively across the business to deliver results.

Success in this role requires ownership of the procurement lifecycle end-to-end: negotiating favorable terms, maintaining process discipline, and ensuring timely, compliant purchasing globally.
