You Are…

• You’re a structured thinker who turns ambiguous operational problems into clear, data‑backed plans. You break complexity into actionable steps and communicate the “why,” “what,” and “how” with clarity.
• You bring hands‑on experience in production or supply chain planning within manufacturing or fulfillment environments.  You understand how daily decisions ripple across inventory, labor, capacity, and customer experience.
• You’re fluent in Excel or Google Sheets — pivot tables, scenario modeling, and automation are second nature.
• You’re comfortable working with ERP/MRP systems and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau, or similar).  You know how to pull, clean, and interpret data to drive operational alignment.
• You’re a clear communicator who can bridge operations and analytics audiences.  You translate data into narratives that help partners understand risks, tradeoffs, and recommended actions.
• You stay calm and solutions‑oriented during escalations.  You can assess the situation quickly, communicate contingency plans, and guide teams through last‑minute pivots without losing composure.
• You collaborate effectively with both internal and external partners.  You build trust, maintain strong working relationships, and ensure alignment across production, fulfillment, vendors, and cross‑functional teams.
• You’re self‑directed and proactive — you identify the most important problems before being asked.  You anticipate risks, surface insights early, and drive continuous improvement.
• You care deeply about data integrity and process excellence.

• Ensure ingredient and SKU readiness by validating availability, shelf‑life windows, and production feasibility ahead of each cycle.
• Maintain meal availability across the fulfillment network through proactive balancing of production, inventory, and transfers across sites.
