  • Coordinate with CAM, engineering, quality, and production teams to validate manufacturability
  • Support expedited / rush orders and adjust plans dynamically as required
  • Maintain revision control for customer data, drawings, and specifications
  • Monitor job progress, escalate delays or issues, and provide corrective planning feedback
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives for planning processes and documentation
  • Willingness to be cross-trained in other areas

Job QualificationsRequired

  • Experience with rigid, flex, and rigid-flex PCBs
  • Familiarity with IPC standards (IPC-6012, / S space addendum, IPC-6013, IPC-6018, etc.)
  • Experience working with Mil Spec, ANSI, ASME or related specifications
  • Strong organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills, with ability to resolve discrepancies
  • Capacity to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment
  • Willingness to work overtime as needed
  • Preferred

  • Associate's or Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Electronics, or Manufacturing Technology
