About Ashkan Wadpey

I’m a supply chain and planning program leader focused on turning demand into predictable operational outcomes.Over the past 7+ years, I’ve led end-to-end planning, procurement, and execution across high-growth and enterprise environments — from managing eight-figure material budgets supporting multi-market network deployments to leading high-volume production planning. My work sits at the intersection of: • Sales & Operations Planning (S & OP) and demand–supply reconciliation• Long-lead procurement and materials strategy• Inventory optimization and allocation logic• Cross-functional execution across engineering, finance, and operations At Google Fiber, I drive planning cycles, procurement readiness, and deployment alignment across multiple markets — ensuring material availability, supplier capacity, and execution timelines stay synchronized. Previously at HelloFresh, I led production and materials planning and delivered measurable improvements in productivity, waste reduction, and annual cost savings.I build operating cadence and governance structures that allow organizations to scale without sacrificing service level, cost discipline, or execution speed.If you’re building complex operations that require disciplined planning, structured decision-making, and measurable results — let’s connect.
