  • Own performance metrics, including schedule attainment, on-time delivery to customer commitments, and WIP levels.
  • Maintain accurate scheduling data within Epicor.
  • Recommend / Propose plans & actions to mitigate at-risk delivery commitments.
Master Schedule Alignment
  • Act as the primary link between the Site Master Scheduler and shop-floor execution.
  • Manage the schedule impact of engineering changes (ECOs), customer revisions, and supply disruptions, and coordinate master schedule updates with the Master Scheduler and other stakeholders.
Capacity & Constraint Management
  • Proactively identify bottlenecks and constraints (capacity, material, fabricated components, and engineering releases) and coordinate cross-functional actions to resolve them.
  • Escalate risks to delivery commitments and recommend recovery or mitigation plans when needed.
Cross-Functional Planning & Communication
  • Coordinate with Engineering, Supply Chain, Production, Quality, and Project Management to align design releases, material availability, and manufacturing execution.
  • Lead daily and weekly production scheduling reviews with production supervisors, PMO, and the fabrication team.
Continuous Improvement
  • Identify opportunities to improve assembly flow, resource utilization, schedule adherence, and planning processes.
  • Support and Drive the development and standardization of production planning and scheduling processes.
  • Mentor and develop production coordinators as the team grows.
Required Skills and Experience
  • Bachelor's degree with 4+ years of experience in production planning, scheduling, or manufacturing operations; equivalent relevant experience may be considered.
  • Advanced ERP/MRP proficiency with a strong understanding of BOM structures, routings, master scheduling, and capacity planning.
  • Experience coordinating across Engineering, Supply Chain, Project Management, and Manufacturing.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, problem-solving, and communication skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and make effective decisions in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and production scheduling tools.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in an Engineer-to-Order (ETO), Make-to-Order (MTO), or project-based manufacturing environment.
  • Experience with SIOP/S&OP and master scheduling processes.
  • Epicor ERP experience.
  • APICS CPIM or CSCP certification.
