Responsibilities: Drive down the work-order backlog: dispositioning idle/no-need-date orders, resolving kitted-but-stalled part numbers, and closing out orders. Execute targeted expedite efforts on hot jobs — identifying material and kit needs, and blockers across service centers and integrated areas to prevent schedule slip. Communicate daily status on backlog burn-down, expedite jobs in flight, and any shift hand-offs to the PC leads and escalation chat. Flag constraints or recurring blockers discovered during clean-up work to area leads and PC leadership rather than resolving informally and losing the signal. Partner with the FTE PC team and, where needed, carry standing work-center ownership -When backlog is clear, this role will support other work centers while sustaining minimal technical debt in assigned work cen

Qualifications: Passion for our mission: millions of people living and working in space. Experience with schedule management, expediting, or backlog/data clean-up in a manufacturing or production environment. -Hands-on experience with ERP/MRP systems (SAP, Costpoint, or similar) — comfortable working directly in the data, not just reading dashboards. Ability to work independently on a defined backlog with minimal ramp-up, in a high-tempo, high-ambiguity environment. -Willingness and availability to support off-nominal shifts (B/C/D) as coverage gaps arise. Desired Prior experience specifically doing backlog remediation, data cleanup, or expedite work (not just steady-state scheduling).Familiarity with MS Office, including MS Project. Familiarity with Jira/ITS and AI tools -Experience in both development and production manufacturing environments. Aerospace or automotive production experience a plus.
