I lead SIOP planning and build data tools that improve inventory, forecasting, and on-time delivery.
What I'm looking for
At Axillon Aerospace, I lead the end-to-end SIOP process for a high-mix, low-volume manufacturing environment, aligning demand, production capacity, and inventory strategy.
I've built Power BI dashboards, Power Query data models, and Excel planning tools that reduced manual reporting by approximately 40%, improved forecast alignment by approximately 20%, and supported a roughly 10% improvement in on-time delivery. I also improved inventory visibility and reduced excess inventory by approximately 15%.
I partner with finance and operations on product costs, material and labor variances, inventory valuation, and future-program profitability. I manage a cross-functional team spanning procurement, planning, inventory, and logistics, while negotiating long-term supplier agreements and incorporating supplier performance into planning strategy.
Previously, I managed global medical supply inventory for U.S. Army facilities at Goldbelt Frontier, led order management and planning at Tenaris, and built HSE reporting frameworks for compliance, risk, and performance tracking.
