Purchasing support is also part of the role, but the primary focus is on scheduling and planning through Fulcrum.

Key Responsibilities:

• Coordinate closely with manufacturing, engineering, and quality teams to align schedules and resolve conflicts.
• Track and analyze work center loads to anticipate capacity constraints or bottlenecks.
• Generate and maintain reports on open jobs, late orders, and upcoming capacity needs, and communicate status to leadership.
• Forecast material requirements and communicate purchasing needs to the procurement team.
• Support purchasing efforts by issuing POs for materials not yet on order and following up with suppliers as needed.
• Help improve planning workflows and processes to support growth and efficiency.

Qualifications:

• Associate degree, trade school certificate, or relevant coursework in supply chain, manufacturing technology, or business; a bachelor's degree is a plus.
• 2+ years of experience in production planning, scheduling, or manufacturing operations (aerospace preferred).
• Proficiency with MRP systems (experience with Fulcrum is highly preferred).
• Strong understanding of job travelers, BOMs, routing, lead times, and capacity planning.
• Excellent organizational and communication skills.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-mix, low-volume environment.

Preferred:

• Experience in an AS9100-certified environment.
• Familiarity with composite or interior aerospace materials and processes.
