Production Planner

As Production Planner, you will make sure the right HAUVs are built at the right time with the right parts, people, and test slots in place. Our vehicles combine many long-lead and specialised components, including subsea connectors, pressure hulls, thrusters, PCB stacks, batteries, machined fittings, and 3D-printed parts. These all have to come together through assembly, QC, and testing before a vehicle can deploy on a client inspection job. You will turn build targets and deployment schedules into a realistic, trackable production plan across our Singapore and Johor Bahru sites.

• Run material requirements planning based on HAUV bills of materials (BOMs) and build schedules.

• Track long-lead and critical items such as subsea connectors, PCBs, machined parts, seals, batteries, and thrusters, and raise purchase requests on time.

• Monitor stock levels of consumables and common parts, including crimps, fasteners, O-rings, cables, and filament and resin for 3D printing.

• Coordinate kitting so each build starts with a complete, verified parts set.

• Work closely with manufacturing, procurement, QA/QC, test, and operations teams to keep builds on track.

• Track build progress, material shortages, and bottlenecks, and escalate risks to delivery dates.

• Coordinate material and work transfers between the Singapore and Johor Bahru sites.

• Manage engineering changes and BOM revisions so that the right version is built.

• Maintain accurate production, BOM, and inventory data in our ERP and project tools (e.g. Odoo, ClickUp).

• Report on schedule adherence, build lead times, material availability, and inventory health.

• Improve planning processes as we move from low-volume, high-mix builds toward more repeatable production.

• Degree or diploma in Supply Chain, Industrial or Manufacturing Engineering, Operations Management, or a related field.

• 2 - 5 years of experience in production planning, material planning, or operations in manufacturing, preferably electromechanical, robotics, marine, aerospace, or defence.

• Working knowledge of MRP, BOM structures, and inventory management.

• Hands-on experience with an ERP system (Odoo is a plus).

• Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills for planning and tracking.

• Organised, proactive, and comfortable managing changing priorities in a startup environment.

• Clear communicator, able to work with engineers, technicians, and suppliers.

• Experience planning low-volume, high-mix production or complex engineered products.

• Familiarity with long-lead electronic and precision-machined components.

• Exposure to lean manufacturing or production scheduling tools.

• Experience coordinating operations between Singapore and Malaysia.

• APICS/ASCM certification (CPIM or CSCP) or similar.

• Market competitive salary

• Growth opportunities that align with your direct ability in helping the company, rather than an arbitrary corporate ladder

• Healthcare support

• Special access to industry events

• Well-stocked pantry with nice snacks

• Support for skills upgrading / learning credits
