We are looking for a passionate Factory Planning expert to join NVIDIA's Regional Factory Planning organization. The Factory Planner plays a meaningful role in ensuring reliable, scalable, and timely supply of high-performance products to customers around the world. This role is responsible for translating demand into executable factory plans by aligning materials, capacity, and manufacturing readiness across contract manufacturing (CM) partners and cross-functional teams.
You will work closely with Supply Chain, Inventory Control, Engineering, and CM partners to support likely build commits, refine operational execution, and steadily increase planning efficiency. This position involves actively using AI-enabled analytics and automation tools to raise efficiency, decision quality, and responsiveness in a dynamic high-tech manufacturing setting.
What You'll Be Doing
Drive the most probable build commits by balancing demand, manufacturing constraints, and CM capabilities while proactively identifying supply risks.
Monitor and drive execution of weekly factory build plans, ensuring actual delivery adheres to committed plans and achieves OTD targets.
Collaborate with cross-functional groups such as Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Global Supply Chain, Inventory Control Planners, and CM partners to guarantee plan feasibility and implementation.
Monitor CM capacity, identify gaps, and support mitigation plans to resolve constraints impacting production.
Partner with Inventory Control Planners to ensure balanced inventory for raw materials, WIP, and finished goods, aiming to limit shortages, overstock, and aging.
Use AI, analytics, and automation tools to improve planning efficiency, scenario analysis, and predictive risk assessment.
Identify and drive automation opportunities to streamline repetitive planning tasks using digital tools, RPA, or intelligent technologies.
Continuously improve planning processes to increase accuracy, responsiveness, and operational excellence while supporting supply chain digitalization initiatives.
