  • 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
