Director of Industrial Planning
About the role
Orbitworks is scaling from an early-stage satellite manufacturer into a high-performing industrial organization, and we're looking for a Director of Industrial Planning to build and lead the planning framework that enables that growth.
This role serves as the operational bridge between planning and execution, ensuring production plans are realistic, resources are aligned, operational risks are anticipated, and recovery actions are coordinated when execution deviates from plan.
You'll work cross-functionally with AIT, Manufacturing Engineering, Supply Chain, Quality, Facilities, Programs, and Engineering to establish robust planning processes, improve operational predictability, and strengthen the company's ability to scale satellite production while maintaining agility.
If you're motivated by solving complex operational challenges, building planning systems, and enabling manufacturing organizations to execute at a higher level, this role offers the opportunity to shape the operational backbone of a rapidly growing space company.
