YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

THE WHAT

You are the daily connection between planning and execution. You coordinate production teams, translate capacity and production needs into realistic plans, and react quickly when priorities, capacities, or timelines change.

THE WHY

To end COPV failure in spaceflight. As we grow, production becomes more complex — with multiple teams, machines, technologies, and locations. Your mission is to keep all these moving parts aligned and ensure that our production output is achieved every day.

YOUR IMPACT

You don't just plan production. You make the plan become reality.

You ensure:

production plans reflect real machine and personnel capacity
production targets are achieved through effective daily coordination
changes and disruptions are addressed with appropriate countermeasures
production bottlenecks are identified early and resolved together with the relevant teams
production, logistics, engineering, quality, and management stay aligned

Align multiple manufacturing teams and ensure that production targets are achieved.

→ High Performance: Keep the shop floor moving.

Translate available machine and personnel capacity into achievable plans and identify upcoming capacity increases early.

→ Accountability: Plan realistically. Deliver reliably.

Identify deviations, delays, and capacity constraints and develop appropriate countermeasures together with the relevant teams.

→ Candor: Surface problems early and act on them.

Work closely with Logistics to systematically identify and eliminate supply and material bottlenecks.

→ Togetherness: Production succeeds when teams work as one.

Work closely with Process Engineering to identify weaknesses through recurring quality issues and increased reject rates and drive improvements.

→ Playfulness: Stay curious. Find better ways to work.
