Job Details

At WHOOP, we’re on a mission to unlock human performance. WHOOP empowers members to perform at a higher level through a deeper understanding of their bodies and daily lives.

As a CapEx Program Manager on the Technical Program Management (TPM) team at WHOOP, you’ll play a key role in scaling our global manufacturing capabilities by turning capital investments into high-impact production infrastructure. You’ll lead capital planning and execution across the full product lifecycle, partnering with engineering, operations, and finance to deliver the equipment, processes, and readiness needed to support both new product introduction (NPI) and continuous improvement (CI) engineering. This role calls for a hands-on, strategic leader who thrives at the intersection of product development and factory operations, with a track record of managing risk, aligning stakeholders, and driving high-velocity execution in dynamic environments.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

    • Own the full CapEx lifecycle, from early scoping through procurement, installation, validation, and mass production readiness.
    • Drive capital planning and execution for NPI and CI programs, ensuring factory readiness through budget, schedule, and CapEx management.
    • Partner with cross-functional teams including engineering, operations, procurement, and finance to align equipment requirements with program goals, ensure investment feasibility, and remove roadblocks.
    • Develop, track, and manage capital budgets, including detailed financial modeling of capital expenditures; maintain forecast accuracy and partner closely with the finance team on reviews, audits, and reporting.
    • Oversee equipment sourcing, vendor coordination, and deployment to meet critical manufacturing and quality milestones.
    • Build and maintain long-range equipment and infrastructure roadmaps to support WHOOP’s scaling needs and product evolution.
    • Embed CapEx planning early in the product development process, enabling design and manufacturing teams to balance innovation with cost and operational feasibility.
    • Define and improve processes and tools for CapEx forecasting, tracking, and analysis; use data to inform investment decisions and improve efficiency.
    • Anticipate risks and drive mitigation efforts to ensure successful, on-time execution of capital programs.
    • Support global manufacturing sites with international travel as needed (up to 20%).

QUALIFICATIONS:

    • 5+ years of experience in CapEx program management, manufacturing operations, or supply chain, ideally in a high-growth consumer electronics or hardware environment.
    • Demonstrated success leading end-to-end capital projects from planning and procurement through equipment validation and production ramp.
    • Expertise in capital budgeting, procurement strategy, and financial controls, with experience managing multi-million dollar investments.
    • Proven ability to manage complex programs across cross-functional teams, vendors, and international manufacturing partners.
    • A highly organized, analytical thinker with a structured approach to problem-solving and a talent for breaking down complex challenges into actionable plans.
    • Known for exceptional attention to detail and a strong commitment to quality in execution and communication.
    • Excellent verbal and written communicator, able to present technical and financial information clearly and concisely to diverse audiences.
    • Demonstrable skill in Excel/Google Sheets for analysis and forecasting, and experienced with tools such as Google Slides, Slack, and SmartSheets to manage and communicate team progress.

Interested in the role but don’t meet every qualification? We encourage you to apply! At WHOOP, we believe there’s more to a candidate than what’s on paper, and we value character as much as experience. As we continue to build a diverse and inclusive environment, we welcome all applicants.
