Partner 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.
Bachelor's degree in supply chain, operations, industrial engineering, business, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
12+ overall years of progressive experience in material planning, supply planning, procurement, or supply chain operations, including 6 years of leadership of planning teams.
Demonstrated success supporting complex NPI or engineering-build environments with frequent changes in schedule, quantity, BOM, and priorities.
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.
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.
