Senior Production Planner

Location: Oak Ridge, TN Schedule: Full-Time Standard Nuclear is fueling America’s nuclear renaissance at industrial scale. Our mission is to deliver the essential building blocks of nuclear power—enabling cost-effective, safe, and secure energy for the world. The Senior Production Planner is responsible for developing production schedules and building the planning framework needed to support Standard Nuclear’s growing manufacturing operations. This role translates project demand, engineering inputs, production constraints, material availability, and facility capacity into practical schedules that support execution across multiple facilities. This is a hands-on planning role in a fast-growing manufacturing environment where production processes, capacity models, and planning systems are actively being developed. The Senior Production Planner will work closely with production, engineering, supply chain, quality, and project teams to gather inputs, identify bottlenecks, estimate throughput, and create schedules that reflect real operational capability. The role requires strong manufacturing judgment, analytical ability, and comfort working in an environment where assumptions must be tested and refined as operations scale. This position is critical to improving schedule discipline, capacity visibility, and production readiness across the organization. RESPONSIBILITIES Production Planning & Scheduling Develop and maintain production schedules based on project demand, production readiness, facility capacity, and material availability Translate customer, project, and internal priorities into executable production plans Build weekly and longer-range production schedules that account for equipment availability, labor, materials, quality requirements, and operational constraints Monitor schedule performance and adjust plans as priorities, constraints, or production realities change Communicate schedule changes, risks, and tradeoffs clearly to production, project, and leadership teams Capacity & Throughput Analysis Evaluate production capacity across facilities, equipment, labor, and process steps Identify bottlenecks, constraints, and throughput limitations that impact production schedules Develop and maintain practical capacity assumptions based on actual production performance and input from technical teams Support leadership in understanding what work can realistically be completed based on current resources and constraints Refine planning models as production processes mature and new data becomes available Planning Framework Development Help build the production planning structure, tools, and routines needed to support scalable manufacturing Gather required inputs from engineering, production, quality, and supply chain to support schedule development Support development of routings, process assumptions, lead times, work sequencing, and planning rules Identify gaps in planning data, documentation, or process inputs and work with teams to close them Help standardize production planning practices across facilities as operations grow Cross-Functional Coordination Work closely with production teams to understand current execution status, constraints, and shop-floor realities Partner with engineering to understand process requirements, technical readiness, and changes that impact production plans Coordinate with supply chain to account for material availability, BOM readiness, long-lead items, and procurement timelines Work with quality to ensure inspection, documentation, and release requirements are reflected in production schedules Support project teams by providing realistic schedule inputs, production status, and capacity feedback Multi-Facility Planning Support production planning across multiple Standard Nuclear facilities Understand facility-specific capabilities, constraints, equipment availability, and readiness Help determine where work should be performed based on capacity, capability, timing, and project needs Coordinate handoffs and dependencies between facilities when work requires multiple production steps or locations Maintain visibility into competing demands across facilities and support prioritization discussions Systems, Data & Continuous Improvement Maintain accurate planning data in scheduling, ERP/MRP, or related systems as they are developed Use production data to improve planning assumptions, schedule accuracy, and capacity visibility Develop reports, trackers, and planning tools to support decision-making Identify opportunities to improve production flow, material readiness, schedule adherence, and planning discipline Support implementation and improvement of planning systems as the company scales PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Operations Management, Engineering, Business, or a related field; equivalent experience will be considered 5–8 years of experience in production planning, production control, master scheduling, capacity planning, manufacturing operations, or supply chain planning Experience developing production schedules in a manufacturing, industrial, technical, or regulated environment Strong understanding of production flow, capacity planning, bottleneck analysis, routings, lead times, and material readiness Experience working in environments where planning systems, BOMs, routings, or production processes are still being built or improved Experience working with ERP/MRP, scheduling, or production planning systems Strong Excel and data analysis skills; experience building planning tools, trackers, or capacity models preferred Ability to gather inputs from engineering, production, supply chain, quality, and project teams and turn them into actionable plans Strong communication skills and ability to explain schedule constraints, risks, and tradeoffs clearly Strong organizational skills and ability to manage competing priorities in a changing production environment Experience in nuclear, aerospace, defense, energy, chemical processing, advanced manufacturing, or other regulated manufacturing environments is a plus BENEFITS Health, Dental & Vision Insurance Health Savings Account Disability and Life Insurance 401(k) Plan Paid Time Off and Holidays WORK ENVIRONMENT This role is based in Oak Ridge, TN and supports production planning across office, manufacturing, warehouse, and operational environments. The position requires regular coordination with production, engineering, supply chain, quality, project, and facility teams. Time in manufacturing or operational areas may be required to understand production constraints, validate planning assumptions, and support schedule development.
