You decide what gets built, when, and where, and you make sure the shop, Purchasing, and Sales are all working from the same plan.\nOur mix is high and our volumes are low, so the schedule changes every week. We need someone who keeps it realistic, gives customers ship dates we can hit, and sees problems coming before they become late orders.\nIN YOUR FIRST 12 MONTHS, YOU WILL\nTake ownership of the master production schedule in NetSuite and make it the one plan the shop runs on.\nClean up planning data (BOMs, routings, lead times, and safety stock) for our highest-volume standard products.\nRun a weekly production meeting with Operations, Purchasing, Engineering, Quality, and Sales.\nPut on-time delivery and schedule adherence reporting in place, and improve both.\nGive Sales lead times and ship dates they can quote with confidence.\nWHAT YOU’LL OWN\nMaster schedule. Balance customer orders, forecast, and stocking levels for standard products against real capacity.\nMRP and material. Run MRP, release work orders, and give Purchasing the time it needs to buy right.\nCapacity. Load CNC machining, assembly, and test. Spot bottlenecks early and recommend overtime, outsourcing, or resequencing.\nShop floor priorities. Publish clear daily and weekly priorities so supervisors and machinists know what’s next.\nShip dates. Commit dates to Sales and Customer Service, and tell them early when something moves.\nPlanning data. Keep BOMs, routings, lead times, and planning parameters accurate so the system tells the truth.\nRequirements\nWHAT YOU BRING\nCurrent APICS (ASCM) certification. CPIM preferred; CSCP considered.\n5+ years in production planning, scheduling, or master scheduling in manufacturing.\nHands-on MPS, MRP, and capacity planning experience in an ERP system.\nExperience in high-mix, low-volume, make-to-order, or engineer-to-order manufacturing.\nAbility to read BOMs, routings, and engineering drawings.\nStrong Excel skills.\nClear, direct communication with machinists, supervisors, buyers, engineers, and salespeople, and the confidence to make a priority call and stand behind it.\nNICE TO HAVE\nNetSuite experience.\nMachining or CNC shop background.\nExperience with nuclear, aerospace, defense, or other regulated customers.\nLean or continuous improvement experience.\nDegree in supply chain, operations, industrial engineering, or business.\nWHY TRI TOOL\nYour schedule is the plan the whole company works from. You’ll work closely with Operations leadership, have a real say in what gets built and when, and see the results every week in what ships out the door.\nSalary Description\n$40-55 per hour","description_format":"text","description_chars":2857,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Industrial Machinery","Test & Measurement Instruments"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-30T19:30:58Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":2,"expected_fill_days":28,"reasons":["conf:2","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-02T06:13:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":110000,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/tri-tool-production-master-planner","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/tri-tool-production-master-planner.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-02T12:28:05Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":17042,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-03T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2592533},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2592533"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftri-tool-production-master-planner"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftri-tool-production-master-planner"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftri-tool-production-master-planner"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/tri-tool-production-master-planner\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftri-tool-production-master-planner"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3541977}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"tritool.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3541977},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
