From Lucid Motors's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity.
In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.
We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.
Lucid’s Material Planning team plays a critical role in keeping manufacturing operations aligned to production demand, supplier readiness, inventory health, and customer delivery expectations. The team partners closely with Purchasing, NPI, Engineering, Manufacturing, Supplier Quality, and Logistics to ensure the right materials are available at the right time across a complex supply base.
What makes this team unique is the scale and pace of its work, supporting thousands of parts and hundreds of suppliers while using data-driven planning, cross-functional problem solving, and supplier engagement to protect production continuity.
The Material Planner is an experienced individual contributor role within Lucid’s manufacturing organization and reports to a supply chain or material planning leader. This role exists to strengthen production readiness by improving supply planning, supplier communication, inventory visibility, and material issue resolution across a high-volume manufacturing environment.
In the first 12 months, this person will own material coverage for assigned commodities or suppliers, improve clear-to-build visibility, support shortage mitigation, and help reduce disruptions tied to supplier constraints, lead times, and inventory gaps. Success will be measured through reliable material availability, improved OTIF performance, timely escalation of risks, accurate planning inputs, and stronger cross-functional alignment.
A strong candidate will gain hands-on ownership of planning decisions in an advanced EV manufacturing environment, working at the intersection of supplier operations, production execution, and new product readiness at meaningful scale.
Develop and communicate material requirements to Lucid’s supplier base through MRP to support production, inventory, and cost objectives.
Own day-to-day supplier follow-up for assigned parts and make timely escalation decisions to protect delivery commitments and production continuity.
Provide clear-to-build status, material coverage analysis, run-out reporting, and risk visibility so manufacturing and business teams can make informed decisions.
Partner with Purchasing, NPI, Engineering, Manufacturing, Supplier Quality, and Logistics to resolve material constraints and align supply plans to operational priorities.
Manage planning parameters and inventory signals to balance service levels, cost, excess inventory, and obsolescence risk.
Use data, what-if analysis, and planning models to recommend actions when demand, supplier performance, or production schedules change.
Lead or support projects that improve OTIF performance, reduce lead times, strengthen shortage management, and support new product rollouts.
