Demand Planner, Megapack

What to Expect Megapack is scaling fast, and demand planning sits at the center of it. We partner with sales, manufacturing, engineering, product, and finance to make the calls that keep industrial energy storage growing around the world. It's a high‑impact, cross‑functional role with real accountability – the kind of seat where your analysis actually moves the business. As a member of the planning team, you'll own demand forecasting for Megapack, balance of plant (BOP) equipment, logistics capacity, and other components. You'll support long‑term capacity planning, dig into historical trends to sharpen accuracy, and help leadership see what's coming before it arrives. What makes this role different is how we work. We're building a modern, highly automated planning stack, and we want a planner who thinks like a builder – someone who reaches for the best tools available, including AI, to kill manual work and make faster, smarter decisions. You won't just maintain spreadsheets; you'll help reinvent how planning gets done. If you're energized by sustainable energy, love untangling messy operational problems with data, and get a little thrill out of automating something that used to take all day, you'll fit right in. What You'll Do Create global demand forecasts based on contracting backlog, customer site readiness, and weighted/unweighted future pipeline Proactively manage short‑ and long‑term growth targets, and give leadership clear, detailed reporting on how we're tracking.
