In This Role

We are seeking a detail-oriented Supply Chain Planner to support short-term planning for server hardware deployment. In this role, you will help translate customer demand forecasts into actionable supply plans, track hardware availability, and ensure the right equipment is available at the right location and time.

You will work extensively with Excel, planning systems, and operational data to reconcile information, identify supply and demand gaps, monitor inventory, and track deployment requirements. This is a hands-on position that requires strong supply chain knowledge, analytical skills, and a willingness to manage detailed manual processes to keep planning activities accurate and on schedule.

You will collaborate with regional capacity managers and cross-functional partners, independently manage day-to-day planning responsibilities, and follow open actions through resolution. The ideal candidate enjoys working with data, solving operational challenges, and turning supply chain requirements into executable plans.

Responsibilities

• Support short-term supply chain planning for server hardware deployment, translating customer demand forecasts into actionable supply plans.
• Partner with regional capacity managers and cross-functional teams to understand hardware requirements, priorities, quantities, and delivery timelines.
• Analyze demand and supply data to identify capacity gaps, inventory constraints, delivery risks, and potential mitigation actions.
• Create, update, and maintain demand entries in planning systems, ensuring accuracy across quantities, locations, and required delivery dates.
• Leverage Microsoft Excel to reconcile datasets, validate planning information, track changes, analyze capacity, and prepare operational reports.
• Monitor hardware inventory, supply availability, costs, lead times, and deployment schedules to support planning decisions.
• Perform detailed manual tracking and maintain accurate records of planning inputs, open actions, risks, and delivery progress.
• Follow up with partner teams to resolve discrepancies, address planning gaps, and ensure requirements progress from initial planning through execution.
• Independently manage daily planning activities while balancing multiple priorities and deadlines.

Qualifications

• 5–7 years of experience in supply chain planning, demand planning, capacity planning, inventory planning, or related operations.
• Strong understanding of supply chain fundamentals, logistics, inventory management, and demand and supply planning processes.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including PivotTables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, formulas, data validation, and reconciliation of large datasets.
• Hands-on experience creating, maintaining, updating, and validating demand or supply plans within planning systems.
• Experience analyzing supply and demand gaps, tracking inventory, monitoring lead times, and managing deployment schedules.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to identify discrepancies, assess risks, and maintain accurate planning data.
• Comfortable performing detailed, hands-on operational work rather than focusing primarily on project coordination or oversight.
• Strong communication and follow-through skills, with the ability to work independently and collaborate across multiple teams.
• Ability to work a consistent Pacific Time (PST) schedule.

Preferred Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, Finance, Operations, or a related field.
• Experience supporting hardware supply chain operations, server deployment, data center infrastructure, or technology logistics.
• Experience with capacity planning, resource allocation, and hardware inventory management.
• Familiarity with Power BI or similar reporting and data visualization tools.
• Experience working with enterprise resource planning (ERP), supply chain management, or demand planning systems.
• Experience coordinating supply planning activities across geographically distributed teams.
