Job Overview

The Strategic Materials Program Manager will be the operational linchpin for our most critical, high-value components. These components feature complex supply chains, custom manufacturing processes, and high field-rework value. To orchestrate material availability across diverse demand streams, you will leverage MRP systems and AI-driven forecasting tools to review historical trends, compare scenarios, and lead rigorous capacity planning. This role owns cross-functional communication, publishes regular planning reports for leadership, and partners directly with Procurement to ensure alignment. It is an opportunity to drive high-impact supply chain visibility from raw material mill runs to final asset delivery.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage end-to-end material flow and inventory visibility for critical components
  • Coordinate and reconcile material requirements and allocations across multiple operational teams including Production, Project Delivery, O&M, and R&D
  • Lead capacity planning and line of balance reviews with internal manufacturing teams and external stakeholders to identify and resolve throughput constraints
  • Review consumption trends, build comparisons, and evaluate forecasts using MRP systems and AI-driven forecasting tools to publish comprehensive planning reports
  • Partner closely with Procurement to review inventory coverage, align purchase order (PO) schedules with operational demand horizons, and prevent supply gaps
  • Own cross-functional communication by gathering operational inputs and delivering transparent executive reporting on material health and schedule risks to leadership
  • Minimum Requirements

  • Deep knowledge of material requirements planning (MRP) and production scheduling logic
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex data sets and demand signals
  • Proficiency in managing ERP planning modules and optimizing system parameters
  • Exceptional communication skills to bridge gaps between Engineering, Production, and Procurement
  • Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in materials management or supply chain planning in a manufacturing environment
  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Operations, Engineering, Business, or a related technical field
  • Advanced technical proficiency with MRP and ERP systems
  • Proven track record of leading capacity planning, line of balance reviews, and cross-functional operations alignment with external suppliers
  • Direct experience managing high-value, long-lead, custom-manufactured components or complex component lifecycles
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with a proven ability to present complex data insights clearly to cross-functional teams and executive leadership
  • Proficiency in utilizing AI and automation tools (e.g., LLMs, spreadsheet automation) to streamline material planning workflows, accelerate documentation, and reduce manual reporting time
  • Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills (VLOOKUPs, Pivot Tables, data modeling)
  • Cultural fit: Rigorous Accuracy (attention to detail, process-oriented), Pragmatic Problem Solving (finding solutions in supply constraints), and Proactive Collaboration

  • Does your experience not meet all of our posted requirements? Studies have shown that some people are less likely to apply to positions unless they meet every listed requirement. At Mainspring, we are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, flexible, and collaborative environment, so if you want to help us transition the world to clean and affordable electricity, and don’t meet all posted requirements for a particular role, we’d still love to hear from you. Mainspring can sometimes be flexible enough to shift responsibilities for the right person, or otherwise identify open or upcoming roles that may better fit your professional background.
