Production Planner

Your tasks

YOUR IMPACT

Build and maintain medium- to long-term production plans that align engineering, procurement, and manufacturing.

Balance capacity, material availability, and evolving engineering requirements to enable predictable execution.

Identify and resolve constraints before they affect day-to-day production on the manufacturing floor.

Support the successful delivery of critical fusion hardware while improving efficiency, coordination, and transparency across manufacturing operations.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Translate project milestones into detailed, resourced and executable manufacturing plans.
• Perform capacity planning and balance workloads across internal and external manufacturing resources.
• Coordinate with the Procurement & Logistics Department to optimize inventory availability, minimize shortages and support efficient material flow across manufacturing.
• Anticipate the impact of evolving engineering requirements and material constraints on the production plan and adjust proactively ahead of execution.
• Work closely with Manufacturing Engineering to incorporate process changes into production plans.
• Partner with Program Managers to align production priorities with program objectives.
• Analyze production performance data to identify risks to material availability, capacity and delivery timelines, feeding findings back into the plan.
• Monitor planning-level metrics such as capacity utilization and lead times and use them to continuously improve the accuracy of the production plan.
• Support the design, implementation and continuous improvement of production planning systems and processes, contributing to the selection and deployment of future ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)/MRP (Material Requirements Planning) capabilities.
• Contribute to the development of scalable production planning processes as Proxima transitions from prototype manufacturing to industrial deployment.

WHO YOU ARE

• You have a degree in Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Supply Chain Management, Operations Management or a related field, or equivalent practical experience in production planning, manufacturing operations or supply chain within a complex engineering environment (aerospace, fusion, automotive, energy or other high-tech manufacturing industries).
• You have experience with production planning systems, MRP/ERP workflows and manufacturing data management and are excited by the opportunity to help implement and shape planning tools in a rapidly growing manufacturing organization.
• You think in terms of capacity, material flow and constraints and you are comfortable modeling trade-offs before they become execution problems.
• You thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments where priorities evolve quickly and planning decisions have a direct impact on manufacturing execution.
• You communicate effectively across multidisciplinary teams and can balance competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• You are proactive, detail-oriented and comfortable working in an evolving hardware development environment.
