    • Develop and maintain kitting schedules aligned with preventive maintenance (PM) cycles and service demand.
  • Inventory & Supplier Management
    • Analyze historical demand and validate forecasts to optimize planning accuracy.
    • Manage inventory levels, including excess & obsolete (E&O) materials and inventory rebalancing.
    • Support NPI planning, initial stocking strategies, and part lifecycle transitions.
    • Monitor MRP accuracy, resolve data integrity issues, and respond to MRP validation inquiries from purchasing teams.
    • Proactively expedite materials when potential shortages are identified.
  • Cross‑Functional Coordination
    • Act as the primary liaison among Field Service Engineers, Customer Service Representatives, Buyers, Forecasters, and Logistics to ensure smooth execution and timely material availability.

What We Are Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Engineering, Business, or a related field
  • 3–6 years of experience in customer service, order fulfillment, material planning, or supply chain
  • Knowledge of forecasting, planning, and scheduling systems, inventory management principles, and spares logistics
  • Experience working with SAP and Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint)
  • Strong planning and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a deadline‑driven environment
  • Excellent communication skills, including strong English proficiency (written and spoken) to support global collaboration

What Sets You Apart

  • Experience in the semiconductor, electronics, or high‑volume manufacturing industry
  • Hands‑on experience supporting NPI and complex part lifecycle management
  • Strong data discipline with a high level of attention to detail and data integrity
  • Proven ability to work independently while taking full ownership of deliverables
  • Proactive mindset with the ability to anticipate issues and drive solutions across teams
