What to Expect

In this role, you will serve as the Data Analyst supporting Material Planning department. You will be the go-to expert for supply and demand planning analytics, multi-tier supply visibility, and operational reporting. You will be responsible for building tools, platforms, and automated pipelines that provide real-time visibility into gating supply chains, enable supply simulations, and drive operational excellence across planning workflows. Working at the intersection of data engineering and analytics, you will design and deploy containerized applications, orchestrate data pipelines, and build frontend platforms that empower stakeholders to make faster, better-informed decisions. The ideal candidate is a proactive and technically versatile analyst who thrives on automating manual workflows, building scalable tools, and solving complex supply chain problems with data. What You'll Do

Build and maintain tools, dashboards, and platforms that provide end-to-end visibility into supply and demand planning across multiple tiers of the supply chain

Design and run supply simulations to identify gating supply chains, forecast risk, and support proactive decision-making by planning and GSM teams

Develop and maintain automated data pipelines for daily workflow orchestration, data extraction, transformation, and reporting

Automate daily operational workflows to eliminate manual processes and drive operational excellence across Material Planning, GSM, and Component GSM teams

Query and analyze large-scale datasets using SQL to uncover supply chain trends, exceptions, and actionable insights

Develop Python-based automation scripts and data processing pipelines for data extraction, transformation, reporting, and simulation modeling

Partner cross-functionally with Demand Planning, Material Planning, GSMs, Component GSM, Systems teams, and regional stakeholders to align analytics deliverables with operational priorities
