We are seeking a highly analytical, proactive, and strategic Senior Production Planner to own and optimize the end-to-end workflow of our standard Libraries design and production pipeline. In this senior role, you will not just manage data—you will own the start of our production scheduling, oversee material logistics, and drive cross-functional alignment. You will be responsible for translating design releases into production, managing complex tracking systems, and mitigating material delivery bottlenecks before they impact the project timelines.

The ideal candidate has a proven track record in manufacturing or production planning, possesses advanced data-modeling skills, and excels at bridging the gap among multiple functional teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Order Review: Conduct rigorous reviews of all incoming orders and design inputs to ensure data integrity before production release.
• Design Execution & Problem Solving: Oversee and run the Design pipeline workflow. Partner directly with the BFX (Design/Engineering) and Production teams to rapidly troubleshoot and resolve complex design issues ensuring a smooth transition from engineering to manufacturing.
• End-to-End Material Tracking: Oversee the tracking of complex, multi-component material orders from procurement through to shipping.
• System Ownership: Oversee and streamline the Libraries order entry and manage the post-design onboarding workflow.
• Master Schedule Management: Own the Work-in-Progress (WIP) and material trackers via Google Sheets/WREN systems. Ensure late-evening and early-morning design data is accurately synthesized into the daily production plan.
• Passdown Synthesis: Analyze evening and weekend team passdown updates (including material receipt status, production progress, QA drop-offs, shipping, and PIE updates) to dynamically update project status on WIP and provide forecasts to the production team.
• Turnaround Time (TAT) Optimization: Maintain and optimize the TAT tracker; analyze TAT data to identify material delivery bottlenecks and improve lead-time forecasting.
• Stakeholder Reporting: Serve as the primary point of contact for Project Managers (PJMs), providing high-level visibility, risk assessments, and status updates on critical projects.

Qualifications & Skills

• Certifications & Experience: BS degree, 5+ years of experience in production planning, scheduling, or operations management within a fast-paced biotech manufacturing environment particularly in Libraries production is a plus.
• Systems Expertise: Advanced proficiency in data management (Google Sheets/Excel formulas, direct experience with WREN, Rosa, and Snapgene is highly preferred).
• Analytical Mindset: Ability to look at passdown data, WIP trackers, and TAT metrics to forecast delays and implement corrective actions.
• Communication and Problem Solving: Strong collaborative skills with a track record of successfully interfacing between technical support teams (BFX), shop-floor production teams, and business stakeholders (PJMs). Ability to work with cross-funcitoning teams to solve problems.
• Shift-Handover Mastery: Proven ability to manage operations asynchronously, converting multi-shift passdown notes into a cohesive, single source of truth.
