Lead material readiness for aircraft builds by translating BOMs, build schedules, inventory, supplier lead times, and open orders into a clear build readiness plan. Own shortage management and clear-to-build status across prototype, validation, and production builds, including risk tracking and escalation. Partner with procurement, engineering, manufacturing, and finance to align material availability with program timing and budget needs. Build scalable processes for inventory accuracy, allocation, receiving, labeling, kitting, and build readiness as the program grows. Identify long-lead and high-risk materials early, recommend mitigation plans, and help reduce last-minute expediting and build delays. We're excited about you because... You have 5+ years of experience in materials planning, supply planning, production planning, procurement operations, inventory control, or equivalent experience. You have experience owning material readiness or clear-to-build planning for hardware, manufacturing, robotics, drones, or equivalent programs. You are comfortable working with complex bills of materials, supplier lead times, purchase orders, inventory, demand forecasts, and build schedules. You can operate with ambiguity, build structure where processes are still developing, and communicate risks clearly to cross-functional partners. You are comfortable working hands-on with physical inventory and systems, including receiving, labeling, organizing, tracking, and preparing materials for builds.
