Description
We're Cisco Silicon One, the heart of Cisco's Silicon Operations organization. As Materials Planner, you'll own the planning and procurement of critical Advanced Package materials, ensuring the right materials arrive at the right time to keep production on track.
You'll translate wafer and die output plans into a clear Materials Buy Plan, partnering with Sourcing to secure supplier allocation splits and quickly flagging any capacity-driven gaps before they become shortages. You'll build and deliver a monthly materials forecast to our suppliers, present materials status directly in our Supply Review, and create a concise executive summary highlighting risks, actions, and support needed.
Minimum Qualifications:
- 2+ years of experience in materials planning for semiconductor assembly materials or a similar semiconductor manufacturing environment.
- Demonstrated analytical and data modeling experience, with the ability to translate demand and capacity inputs into actionable, capacity-feasible supply plans or forecasts.
- Experience managing supplier relationships, purchase orders, and materials forecasting.
- Proficiency with ERP systems and Excel-based planning/modeling tools.
- Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Industrial Engineering, Business, or equivalent experience.
- Strong communication, interpersonal, and collaboration skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
- APICS certification (CPIM or CSCP) is a plus.
- Experience with substrate and HBM materials planning within a semiconductor or advanced packaging environment.
- Experience building or maintaining capacity/loading models to convert unconstrained demand into a capacity-feasible plan.
- Self-driven, detail-oriented mindset with a track record of proactively identifying and resolving materials risk before it impacts production.
- Comfort independently presenting analysis, status, and recommendations to cross-functional stakeholders and leadership.
