Maintain and continuously improve material readiness dashboards and trackers using dashboarding tools or spreadsheets
Partner with OPMs to consolidate and validate data for build readiness reviews, material risk assessments, and leadership updates
Execute regular BOM scrub and alignment activities, ensuring ERP data integrity (quantities, lead times, allocations)
Analyze material availability vs. program demand, highlight gaps, and prepare actionable recovery plans
Manage and track engineering change impacts on material requirements, collaborating with OPMs to ensure smooth transitions
Utilize JIRA and Monday to track and follow through on open issues, ensuring closure and accurate status reporting
Support scenario planning by running 'what-if' analyses on material availability and demand shifts
Partner with OPMs on executive and customer-facing reporting, ensuring data is clean, accurate, and presentation-ready

Advanced skills in Excel, Mode, and/or Power BI for data analysis and dashboarding
High attention to detail and ability to manage large, complex data sets without losing sight of key priorities
Comfortable in an 80% execution / 20% strategy role - thrives on solving daily material availability challenges while contributing to process improvements
Strong communication skills for collaborating with cross-functional teams, especially Operations Program Managers, Procurement, and Production Planning
Ability to work in a fast-paced, changing environment with competing priorities
APICS/ASCM or similar certification is a plus
