Senior Planner/Scheduler
About The Position
Serve as a senior planning and scheduling professional for major project areas, phases, or complex EPC scopes on Fab 62, an advanced semiconductor fabrication facility at Intel’s Ocotillo campus in Chandler, Arizona. Provide technical leadership for schedule development, integration, analysis, forecasting, and performance evaluation, ensuring assigned schedules reflect project execution strategies, interfaces, risks, and key milestones. The position uses Primavera P6 to evaluate complex schedule issues and execution alternatives, provide forward-looking insights and recommendations, and support project and Project Controls leadership in decision-making. The role operates under the overall planning and scheduling direction established for the project and provides technical guidance to less-experienced planners and schedulers. Fab 62 requires delivery of engineering, procurement, and construction scope in a demanding environment requiring precision, cleanliness, schedule certainty, and coordination across craft and professional teams. The project supports expansion of domestic semiconductor manufacturing capacity.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree or international equivalent and 8–10 years of relevant experience, or 12–14 years of relevant work experience.
- Demonstrated experience leading planning and scheduling activities for major scopes or phases of complex EPC projects.
- Advanced proficiency in Primavera P6, including development, integration, maintenance, analysis, and evaluation of complex CPM schedules.
- Advanced knowledge of scheduling principles and practices, including CPM, logic and sequencing, baselines, progress measurement, forecasting, float management, schedule integration, schedule quality, and impact analysis.
- Strong understanding of the EPC lifecycle and schedule interfaces among Engineering, Procurement, Supply Chain, Construction, Commissioning, and Startup.
- Experience integrating and evaluating multi-discipline, contractor, subcontractor, supplier, and vendor schedules.
- Ability to evaluate complex schedule conditions, execution alternatives, constraints, and risks and develop actionable recommendations.
- Experience developing mitigation strategies, recovery plans, and alternative execution scenarios.
- Experience performing schedule impact assessments, change evaluations, and Time Impact Analysis.
- Strong communication and presentation skills, including the ability to translate complex schedule information into clear conclusions and recommendations.
- Experience providing technical guidance, review, or mentoring to less-experienced planners and schedulers.
Nice To Haves
- Experience planning and scheduling major manufacturing, semiconductor, data center, pharmaceutical, energy, mining, infrastructure, or other complex industrial projects.
- Experience supporting complex schedule-related change and claims evaluations.
- Experience with Quantitative Schedule Risk Analysis, probabilistic schedule analysis, or similar schedule risk methodologies and tools.
- Familiarity with Power BI, Power Query, Synchro 4D, or other project reporting, visualization, and schedule-analysis tools.
- Experience improving schedule quality, planning practices, or scheduling workflows.
Responsibilities
- Lead development, maintenance, integration, and analysis of complex schedules for assigned project areas, disciplines, phases, or major scopes using Primavera P6.
- Establish and evaluate schedule structure, sequencing, logic, calendars, durations, milestones, and interfaces in accordance with the project’s overall scheduling framework.
- Lead integration and evaluation of Engineering, Procurement, Supply Chain, Offsite Manufacturing, Construction, Commissioning, and Startup schedules for assigned scope.
- Integrate and evaluate contractor, subcontractor, supplier, fabrication, and vendor schedules within the integrated project schedule.
- Perform advanced schedule analysis, including Critical Path Method, float management, schedule health, trend analysis, performance evaluation, forecasting, and scenario analysis.
- Evaluate schedule interfaces, constraints, assumptions, and emerging risks, and assess their potential impacts on project objectives and milestones.
- Develop and evaluate mitigation strategies, recovery plans, what-if scenarios, and alternative execution approaches for assigned scope.
- Perform schedule impact assessments, Time Impact Analysis, and schedule-related change evaluations, and support complex claims analysis as required.
- Provide forward-looking schedule forecasts, insights, and recommendations to the Lead Planner, Project Controls leadership, and project stakeholders.
- Lead schedule reviews for assigned scope and communicate critical and near-critical paths, risks, opportunities, forecasts, and recommended actions.
- Ensure schedule quality, logic integrity, and compliance with project controls procedures, scheduling standards, and project requirements.
- Provide technical guidance, review, and mentoring to less-experienced planners and schedulers.
