About the role
This role owns production scheduling for critical and NPI products across the PMTC factory and drives on-time delivery.
What you'll do
- Build, maintain, and prioritize the production schedule for critical revenue and NPI products; manage changes, constraints, and material/capacity conflicts to protect committed ship dates.
- Act as the scheduling interface between Operations, Engineering, R&D, and Supply Chain; run cross-functional reviews and escalate risks to delivery early with recovery plans.
- Drive results on quality, schedule, and cost — track KPIs (OTD, cycle time, WIP, yield, cost variance), identify root causes, and lead corrective actions.
- Serve as MES subject-matter expert: own routings, work-order flow, configuration, user support, and system improvements; represent manufacturing in MES/ERP enhancement projects.
- Lead manufacturing data analytics — build dashboards and reports (Power BI / SQL / Excel) that give leadership visibility into schedule health, capacity, and performance.
- Identify and implement process improvements in planning, execution, and reporting; document and standardize work.
What you'll need
- Bachelor's degree (or equivalent experiences) in Industrial/Manufacturing Engineering, Operations, Supply Chain, or related field.
- 5+ years in production planning/scheduling or manufacturing operations, preferably in high-mix electronics or test & measurement.
- Hands-on MES expertise (e.g., Camstar/Opcenter, or Keysight's MES) and ERP/Oracle familiarity.
- Strong analytics skills — SQL, Power BI/Tableau, advanced Excel.
- Proven ability to work independently with cross-functional stakeholders and drive results.
Nice to have
- APICS/CPIM or Lean Six Sigma a plus.
