Howmz manufactures light-gauge steel panelized wall systems and prefabricated bathroom and mechanical pods, then installs them on site. We build houses in a factory. Every home we ship is a few thousand parts across 21 material categories, and all of it has to hit the floor in the right sequence for panels to leave the line on schedule.

• This is a newly created role.
• We have gone from about 10 people a year ago to roughly 25 today, and expect to be near 35 by the end of the year.

Material planning is outgrowing memory, spreadsheets, and email. There is no predecessor and no inherited backlog: you would be the first person to hold this seat, reporting directly to the VP of Operations and owning material planning, purchasing, and inventory end to end for the whole company. You would also help build the system that runs it.

• We do not buy software; we build our own.
• You would sit with our software team, write the requirements, and define the planning logic for the MRP you then use every day. Most planners spend their careers working around a vendor's configuration screens — this is the job where you fix the tool instead.
• What you'll own
• Translate the sales and construction pipeline into a rolling 12-month material forecast, and run a weekly planning cadence with Operations, Product Development, and Sales
• Own bill-of-material accuracy, MRP runs, and planning parameters — lead times, safety stock, reorder points, lot sizes
• Place and manage purchase orders, confirm dates and quantities, and expedite what slips before it stops the line
• Run the shortage list daily and drive it to zero with recovery dates
• Own physical inventory: receiving, put-away, locations, cycle counts, and inventory accuracy
• Run kitting and staging so every panel and pod gets a complete kit at the right station on the right day
• Own the planning data model — part numbering, UOM discipline, category structure, supplier master — and the requirements for the MRP our software team builds
• Publish the numbers — material availability, inventory accuracy, turns, expedite freight — where the floor and leadership can see them
• What we're looking for
• 5-8+ years in material planning, production planning, or buying in a manufacturing environment — you have run MRP and lived with the consequences
• Hands-on ownership of BOMs and planning parameters, not just reading them
• A track record of building a planning process where none existed: a startup, a new plant, a turnaround, or a new product line
• Real fluency with inventory mechanics — safety stock, reorder points, days of supply, cycle counting, accuracy measurement
• Deep working knowledge of at least one ERP or MRP system — enough to know what planning logic
• should
• do and to specify it for someone building it
• The ability to write clear requirements and work directly with software developers

• Advanced Excel:

  you can build a model, not just fill one in
• Comfort being where the material is — you will spend part of most days on the factory floor, and some days on an active job site, not only at a desk
• The temperament for a 25-person company: you will set the strategy and also cut the
