Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.

Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.

The Director of Supply Chain Cyber and Physical Security Risk Management is a critical leadership role responsible for safeguarding the integrity, resilience, and compliance of our global supply chain. This position sits at the intersection of cybersecurity, physical security, supply chain operations, and regulatory compliance—requiring a strategic leader who can bridge technical expertise with business acumen.

As the company expands its footprint and deepens its reliance on a complex global vendor ecosystem, this role will serve as the central architect and executor of a comprehensive risk management framework. The Director will be accountable for identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks that could compromise intellectual property, disrupt operations, or jeopardize compliance with U.S. Government and international regulations.


This role will lead the development of proactive security strategies that enable business growth while minimizing exposure to cyber threats, physical vulnerabilities, and third-party risks. The Director will also play a key role in shaping internal policies, influencing supplier selection, and ensuring that security is embedded into every stage of the supply chain lifecycle—from sourcing and contracting to delivery and decommissioning.


The ideal candidate will bring a blend of technical depth, operational insight, and leadership experience, with a proven track record of building secure, scalable, and compliant supply chain ecosystems. This role will also be responsible for building and mentoring a global team of security and risk professionals, and for fostering a culture of security awareness and accountability across the organization.

Risk Management & Governance:

  • Conduct comprehensive cyber and physical risk assessments across the supplier lifecycle.
  • Establish and maintain a risk register and mitigation roadmap for critical suppliers and categories.
  • Define and enforce security standards, controls, and critical metrics for third-party vendors.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

  • Partner with Procurement, IT, Legal, Product Security, and Manufacturing to embed security into sourcing, contracting, and operational processes.
  • Support secure vendor onboarding and ongoing monitoring, including audits and incident response planning.

Compliance & Regulatory Readiness:

  • Ensure compliance with U.S. Government security requirements (e.g., NIST, DFARS, CMMC) and industry standards.
  • Lead readiness efforts for audits and assessments related to national security and CHIPS Act funding.

Continuous Improvement & Innovation:

  • Stay ahead of emerging threats, technologies, and regulatory changes.
  • Drive adoption of advanced tools and analytics for supply chain threat detection and response.

Business Impact:

  • Proactively mitigate risks that could lead to IP theft, operational disruption, or regulatory penalties.
  • Enable secure vendor selection and management without introducing unnecessary latency or cost.
  • Support expansion into national security markets by ensuring compliance and resilience.
  • Improve incident response times and reduce the burden on cross-functional teams currently managing security reactively.
