This is a hands-on role at the intersection of demand and supply, cost and pricing, and hardware systems. The person in this role will be the one who keeps our appliance business supplied, buildable, and profitable, and who turns demand, COGS, and lead-time signals into concrete forecasting and pricing decisions that leadership can act on. This role is central to product engineering, field sales, operations, demand planning, and supply chain, and will regularly bring pricing recommendations, demand plans, and other critical decisions forward for VP and executive approval. Key Responsibilities Portfolio Planning & Hardware Systems • Contribute to multi-year SASE and Security hardware portfolio planning and HW convergence, including derivative platform strategy across EdgeConnect, SSR, SD-Branch, and SRX and the associated ODM/JDM cost assumptions. • Partner with hardware engineering on platform definition across x86 and Arm-based systems, including processor, memory, storage, mechanical, and port configuration trade-offs and their cost implications. • Drive platform lifecycle decisions, including End of Sale (EoS) timing and replacement planning. • Lead New Product Integration (NPI) phase-gate deliverables as needed (for example business case inputs, SKU creation, and pricing commit), in partnership with the program and engineering teams. • Understand the requirements and implementation for secure supply chains from manufacturing through end-customer acceptance. • Expertise in embedded Linux systems, x86, and ARM architectures. Pricing Strategy & Price Actions • Drive the recurring pricing actions across the hardware portfolio, translating COGS movements into per-model list price recommendations and guiding them through the approval process (PLM leadership, finance, and the executive Product Approval Committee (PAC). • Own the per-SKU margin analysis, including allocated uplifts to COGS including transfer, cost of sales, logistics and warranty, while factoring in real-world discount behavior. Identify which platforms need targeted price increases versus across-the-board moves. • Model the interplay between hardware and software pricing (for example using measured SW increases to distribute the impact of HW-only increases) to protect blended unit margin while limiting market disruption. • Coordinate price change execution with pricing operations, including SKU-level submissions, price list updates in sales back-office systems, and partner and regional communications and timing. • Maintain competitive
