As a Manufacturing Planner you will own the critical bridge between engineering design supply chain and shop-floor execution for our advanced autonomous this role you will be responsible for defining the operational sequence of how we build hardware at scale. You will direct the creation and maintenance of detailed manufacturing plans build and optimize MES routings manage BOM structures and ensure that technicians have clear repeatable work instructions compliant with rigorous customer standards (including NAVSEA). You will play a pivotal role in turning broader functional plans into actionable processes managing configuration changes and maintaining production schedules within established timelines and budgets.

• Manufacturing Planning & Execution: Direct the creation and maintenance of comprehensive manufacturing plans oversee the translation of complex 2D/3D engineering drawings into clear work instructions and optimize operational process routings in our MES.
• Bill of Materials Management: Own the strategy for creation and maintenance of the MBOM and as-built configuration management ensuring accurate translation from the EBOM.
• Production Scheduling & Prioritization: Partner with Operations Quality and Supply Chain to establish build sequences monitor order flow and make sequencing and allocation decisions to support production ramp-up.
• Engineering Change Coordination: Manage engineering changes across active manufacturing plans assessing impact on active MES routings work-in-progress and hardware delivery timelines.
• Cross-Functional Alignment: Serve as a primary interface between Design Engineering Manufacturing Engineering Supply Chain Quality and Production Operations to align on goals resolve line blockers and meet delivery commitments.
• DFX Producibility Input: Collaborate upstream with design teams during DFM and DFA reviews to ensure assembly sequences build procedures and routings are optimized for cost quality and scalability.
• Continuous Improvement: Analyze manufacturing discrepancies scrap and operational process data using first-principles problem-solving and root-cause analysis to enhance production efficiency and yield.
• Shop-Floor Support: Provide hands-on manufacturing planning support directly on the floor during New Product Introduction (NPI) prototype builds and rate ramp-ups.

• 5 years of experience in manufacturing planning production planning or production control within a complex electromechanical or hardware manufacturing environment.
