Production Controller at Ursa Major Technologies | LAYIQ

Planning & Execution (Near-Term Ownership)
Ownership: Work Center scheduling, sequencing, and execution tracking.
Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineers (MEs) to ensure routed times and steps are accurate and reflect real execution; flag and help correct discrepancies.
Lead the work center portion of daily & weekly meetings: present schedule, hot jobs, constraints, and risks; capture required decisions and tradeoffs.
Communicate with stakeholders when schedules shift, including impacts to critical milestones or deliveries.
Identify and communicate capacity restraints and bottlenecks (machines, labor, tooling, material) and help Planning and Operations evaluate priority solutions (resequencing, overtime, temporary outsourcing, etc.).
Field change requests (priority swaps, urgent jobs, routing or design changes), assess schedule impact, propose options, and implement agreed changes both electronically in ERP and physically in queues and workboards.
Track Manufacturing Orders (MOs) transactionally and physically to ensure Odoo status and actual WIP match; reconcile discrepancies across systems, boards, and the floor.
Work with Material Control to resolve raw material and component issues (shortages, late receipts, substitutions, kitting gaps).
Ensure physical and digital MO queues match; keep the Wait/Work board, Odoo, and floor reality aligned.
Proactively chase down raw material or parts (including travelers/routers) needed to keep priority jobs moving.
Track parts through rework (RW) and ensure rework is visible, scheduled, and properly loaded (not hidden WIP).
Capacity & Planning Interface (RCCP Support)
Support Planning in maintaining a rolling 0–12month profile of internal demand through work centers, used for planning production capacity, supply requirements, constraints, and rate ramps.
Help maintain both: A 0–3 month rolling view aligned with near-term execution.
A 6–12 month rolling view informed by realistic cycle times, rework/scrap trends, and observed bottlenecks.
Update and utilize key capacity tools for: Near-term daily capacity and load.
Midterm capacity views.
Help distill the Master Production Schedule (MPS) into a weekly and daily Production Plan for work centers within the executional horizon.
Ensure daily MOs are staged and completed on time, including verifying that materials, routers, tooling, and documentation are ready before release.
Contribute to reporting on demand health, forecast accuracy, and key risks for machining to provide context for leadership decisions on staffing, equipment, and schedule commitments.
SIOP & Planning Participation – Metrics, KPIs, and Reporting
Participate in SIOP and Planning team routines (e.g., recurring reviews, prep sessions) as the work center execution representative.
Help define, build, and maintain metrics/KPIs and reporting related to machining and normal supply chain health. including:
MO status tracking (open, released, in process, on hold, complete).
Forecast accuracy vs. actuals for work center load.
Schedule adherence and on time start/completion for MOs.
Throughput, rework, scrap, and other machining performance indicators.
Provide clear, data backed updates on machining status and risks into the SIOP process to support decisions on prioritization, capacity, and material planning.
Work with Planning and Supply Chain to continuously improve how machining data is captured, structured, and reported so that it better supports SIOP and leadership decision making.
