Energy Production Planner

About This Role

This role is responsible for translating demand and engineering inputs into an executable production plan for Energy Operations at BMC1. The Production Planner ensures builds stay on schedule and the production floor is free from planning-driven stoppages. This is a fully on-site role at BMC1.

Responsibilities

• Create and publish the daily and weekly build plan, confirming and communicating weekly clear-to-build status based on material, labor, and equipment readiness
• Manage NPI trials on the production line, tracking BOM revisions between ERP and PLM and coordinating with engineering and procurement on discrepancies
• Partner with the Materials Management team to validate material arrival and receipt against the build plan, and translate plan needs into material priorities and need dates
• Perform staffing and capacity analysis to align labor and line capacity with the production plan
• Schedule planned downtime based on engineering requirements, coordinating with engineering and production to minimize schedule impact
• Publish the monthly build plan, gathering demand inputs, validating MRP outputs, capturing E&O risk, and flagging supply risk with quantified impact to the build plan
• Coordinate with engineering, quality, and Global Supply Management on schedule-impacting issues

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Operations Management, or a related field; equivalent experience considered
• 2+ years of experience in production planning, supply chain, or manufacturing operations
• Working knowledge of ERP/MRP systems, Oracle preferred
• Ability to interpret supply chain, production, and capacity data to assess build risk and staffing needs across a multi-component bill of materials
• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent planning priorities, including build plan creation, NPI trials, and capacity and downtime scheduling, in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
• Effective written and verbal communication skills to coordinate across engineering, quality, and supply chain stakeholders

Nice to have:

• Energy storage or electronics manufacturing experience
