Responsibilities

• Material Planning & Readiness: Lead weekly material readiness reviews integrating engineering release schedules, procurement status, and build plans to maintain >95% readiness for all hardware builds. Develop and maintain Master Production Schedules (MPS) based on demand forecasts, BOM changes, and supplier lead times. Monitor inventory health across ERP systems and implement mitigation plans for shortages, excess, and aging stock. Ensure material and BOM accuracy through proactive data validation and cross-system reconciliation (ERP, PLM, and engineering trackers).

Track supplier on-time delivery, lead times, and pricing trends to anticipate risks and enable corrective actions. Support procurement escalations and work with suppliers to resolve material constraints during prototype and ramp-up phases. Maintain visibility to material cost drivers and supplier performance metrics for continuous improvement.
• Budget & Cost Management: Track and report material spending versus approved budgets (NRE, build phase, and operational). Perform variance and usage analysis to identify cost reduction or re-use opportunities. Collaborate with finance and operations on forecasting and reporting to maintain alignment with quarterly goals.

Report readiness KPIs, spend variance, and supplier performance to management and program stakeholders. Use analytics to drive recommendations for optimizing supply chain efficiency and lead-time reduction.
