  • Advanced Excel skills and knowledge of Power BI, Python, or other data analysis tools.
  • Flexibility and ability to adapt to highly variable environments.
  • Ability to plan and manage complexity.

Responsibilities

  • Develop, sequence, and maintain daily and weekly production schedules by line, cell, and resource, defining order, batch size, and order freeze horizon in accordance with the Master Production Schedule.
  • Determine the optimal order sequence based on product families, molds and tooling, colors, technical constraints, and changeover matrix to minimize setup times and startup losses.
  • Route orders among alternative lines and equipment by evaluating installed capacity, standard productivity, and resource availability.
  • Analyze machine loading and finite capacity, identify bottlenecks and overloads, and propose production leveling, additional shifts, or rescheduling with PCP supervision and Production.
  • Assess the impact of urgent requests, advances, and order changes on the current sequence, reprioritize orders, and communicate effects on deadlines and customer service in a structured manner.
  • Ensure sequence feasibility based on the availability of materials, supplies, and components, adjusting the schedule according to supply status.
  • Maintain planning and sequencing parameters in enterprise systems (ERP/APS), including standard times, setups, minimum lots, calendars, and capacities, to ensure reliable simulations and schedules.
  • Run scheduling scenario simulations and compare sequence alternatives for deadline attainment, resource utilization, work in process, and setup cost.
  • Issue, release, and control production orders, monitoring production reporting, execution status, and closure.
  • Track planned versus actual production daily by line, measure adherence to the sequence, identify deviations, and address causes with Production.
  • Monitor and report scheduling performance indicators, including plan adherence, OTIF, setup time, resource utilization, lead time, and work in process, to support decision-making.
  • Coordinate between PCP, Production, Maintenance, Quality, and Commercial, aligning planned downtime, tooling changes, trials, and validations with line sequencing.
  • Monitor and analyze the Kanban system and internal replenishment flows to synchronize line sequencing with factory supply.
  • Support production layout decisions and technical adjustments to molds and tooling when they directly affect sequence, setup, or production capacity.
  • Develop and revise standard operating procedures (SOPs) for scheduling and sequencing, contribute to process improvement, and provide technical guidance to the Junior PCP Analyst.
