Aurora hires talented people with diverse backgrounds who are ready to help build a transportation ecosystem that will make our roads safer, get crucial goods where they need to go, and make mobility more efficient and accessible for all. We’re searching for a hands-on, execution-focused Senior Materials Analyst to partner closely with our Operations Program Managers in driving material readiness for complex hardware builds in an automotive/technology manufacturing environment. This role is ideal for a supply chain professional who thrives in the details of material planning and data accuracy, while also bringing the analytical horsepower to uncover trends, pinpoint root causes, and recommend process improvements.

You will be the primary analyst and materials owner supporting our OPMs — ensuring that short-term material health is visible, accurate, and acted upon, enabling programs to stay on track. This position demands expertise in ERP/MRP execution, data analysis, and cross-functional collaboration, with an ability to navigate fast-paced and dynamic build schedules.

In this role, you will:

• Own short-term material health for assigned programs, ensuring accuracy in ERP and flagging shortages, late POs, or at-risk parts for action by OPMs and Procurement.
• 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.
• Drive recurring operational cadences (weekly readiness reviews, inventory checks, and allocation updates).
• 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.
• Identify data or process gaps and propose solutions to improve planning accuracy and efficiency.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, or related field.
• 3+ years in materials planning, supply planning, or production control within automotive, aerospace, or complex hardware manufacturing.
• Strong ERP/MRP (Netsuite, SAP, Plex etc) experience with a proven track record of data accuracy and system execution.
• 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.
• Domestic or international travel <10%.
• Flexibility for occasional early morning or late evening meetings with global teams.
