- Maintain accurate demand, build quantities, lead times, BOM changes, and priorities within SAP and MRP.

- Collaborate with commodity managers and contract manufacturers to resolve shortages, secure supply, and recover at-risk builds.

- Lead shortage reviews and scenario planning, quantifying impacts, assigning actions, and escalating critical decisions.

- Translate program changes and engineering change orders into executable material plans and concise leadership updates.

- Develop and scale an AI roadmap that automates planning, improves data quality and predictability, strengthens controls, and measures business impact.

**Requirements:**

- Bachelor's degree in supply chain, operations, industrial engineering, business, or a related field, or equivalent experience.

- Strong command of CTB management, MRP, inventory control, shortage management, BOM structures, and engineering change processes.

- Experience working with commodity managers, contract manufacturers, and global supply partners to resolve material constraints.

- Experience leading AI, analytics, automation, or digital transformation initiatives from business problem definition through adoption at scale.

- Proficiency with SAP or comparable ERP and MRP platforms, Excel, and planning or business-intelligence tools.

- Strong leadership, communication, and structured problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage tradeoffs and work across global time zones.

**Nice to Have:**

- Experience scaling a material planning organization for semiconductor, hardware, electronics, or other complex products.

- A record of improving CTB performance, planner productivity, or NPI execution through process redesign and data-driven operating mechanisms.

- Hands-on experience deploying AI-enabled planning solutions and enough knowledge of data, prompts, model evaluation, and responsible AI practices to guide technical partners.
