About The Position

The Planner/Scheduler independently develops, maintains, analyzes, and integrates schedules for major project areas, disciplines, systems, facilities, or phases of work. Using Primavera P6, the role leads schedule coordination across project functions, evaluates schedule performance and execution interfaces, identifies risks and opportunities, and develops recommendations to support project objectives and informed decisions. The position works with Engineering, Procurement, Supply Chain, Offsite Manufacturing, Construction, Commissioning and Startup, contractors, suppliers, and other stakeholders to maintain integrated execution plans. The role supports Fab 62, an advanced semiconductor fabrication facility for Intel Corporation at Intel's Ocotillo campus in Chandler, Arizona, where precise coordination and schedule certainty are essential.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree or international equivalent and 5–8 years of relevant experience, or 9–12 years of relevant work experience.
Demonstrated experience planning and scheduling EPC projects, with strong working knowledge of integrated Engineering, Procurement, and Construction execution.
Advanced proficiency in Primavera P6, including hands-on experience developing, maintaining, integrating, and analyzing complex CPM schedules.
Strong knowledge of scheduling principles and processes, including CPM, schedule logic and sequencing, baselines, progress measurement, forecasting, float analysis, schedule integration, schedule quality assessment, and impact analysis.
Experience independently managing scheduling scope for a major project area, discipline, system, facility, phase of work, or similarly complex scope.
Strong working knowledge of EPC execution processes and schedule interfaces among Engineering, Procurement, Supply Chain, Construction, and Commissioning and Startup.
Demonstrated ability to lead schedule coordination across multiple disciplines, contractors, suppliers, and project stakeholders.
Ability to independently analyze schedule performance, identify trends and emerging risks, evaluate execution alternatives, and provide actionable recommendations.
Experience integrating and evaluating contractor, subcontractor, supplier, fabrication, or vendor schedules.
Ability to evaluate schedule logic, sequencing, durations, progress, and forecasts and identify inconsistencies or unrealistic assumptions.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills and ability to manage multiple priorities and complex or changing project requirements.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, including communicating schedule status, risks, impacts, and recommendations to project stakeholders.
Working knowledge of schedule risk analysis concepts and methodologies.
