Associate Data Engineer, Manufacturing Planning Systems, Semi

What to Expect The Associate Data Engineer builds and sustains the data-structure pipeline that holds the Semi production plan. That pipeline supports forecasting, production planning, and the handoff into execution. You work with planners so the plan the factory runs is complete, current, and checkable. You help keep the modules and the checks that set sequence and priority. You do not own the production plan. Planners own that decision. You help shape the data the plan runs on, the load from the ERP and the other sources, and the SQL that shows supply against demand. An experienced engineer leads this work. This seat is Semi at Gigafactory Nevada. What You'll Do Help build and sustain the data-structure pipeline and the checks on it. You are not the technical owner of every planning module.
