Configuration Management Specialist

Acculon Energy is seeking a Manufacturing & PLM Planning Specialist toserve as a critical bridge between Manufacturing Operations and Design Engineering. This role is responsible for establishing and governing the "digital thread"—the foundational data backbone—while simultaneously ensuring those structures successfully drive our production schedules for advanced battery modules andbattery packs. This unique position combines Master Data Governance with Core Production Planning, Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Engineering Change Control (ECR/ECO) into a single, high-impact role. You willensure that what engineering designs is flawlessly translated intoaccurate, buildable operational plans.*Key Focus Areas*Manufacturing Planning & Operations: Leverage our ERP/MRP ecosystem(Odoo) to translate released PLM data into actionable manufacturingorders, accurate routings, and master production schedules. You willensure that inventory targets, supplier lead times, and capacityconstraints align with the engineering roadmap. PLM & Engineering Data Control: Serve as the primary business ownerand super-user for the PLM ecosystem. You will govern the dataarchitecture, enforce strict data discipline, and manage the seamlesstranslation of Engineering Bills of Materials (eBOMs) into Manufacturing Bills of Materials (mBOMs) with accurate part attributesand revision histories. Engineering Change Management: Coordinate and accelerate the Engineering Change Order (ECO) process across departments, ensuringthat design updates, component substitutions, and quality improvementsare cleanly integrated into production without disrupting the line.*Who You Are*This position is ideal for a highly analytical systems expert whothrives at the intersection of product design and factory-floorexecution. You enjoy enterprise systems, data management, and processimprovement, and you want to play a foundational role in building aworld-class battery manufacturing organization. This position is idealfor a highly analytical individual who enjoys manufacturingoperations, enterprise systems, data management, and processimprovement and who wants to play a foundational role in building aworld-class battery manufacturing organization.________________________________*Essential Responsibilities**1. Odoo Manufacturing Systems & Master Data Administration*System Super-User: Serve as the core Manufacturing Operations businessprocess owner for Odoo modules, including PLM, Manufacturing (MRP), MES, Inventory/WMS, Quality, and Purchasing. Data Integrity: Establish, monitor, and enforce strict master datagovernance policies to protect system data integrity across allintegrated modules. Optimization & UAT: Support system implementation and workflowoptimization projects, performing user acceptance testing (UAT) andvalidating digital data paths. Training & Reporting: Support employee onboarding and system adoption; develop operational reports, automated dashboards, and data trackingtools to optimize business processes.*2. Production Planning & Manufacturing Control*Master Scheduling: Translate released PLM data and customer demandinto optimized, executable production schedules within Odoo MRP.Order Management: Release, sequence, and manage manufacturing orders(MOs) and work orders based on material availability and operationalcapacity. Performance Tracking: Monitor schedule adherence, track manufacturingperformance metrics, and participate in daily operational andproduction planning reviews. Inventory Alignment: Support inventory planning activities, materialavailability tracking, and cycle counting initiatives to ensure highinventory accuracy.*3. Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) & Configuration Control*System Ownership: Own and maintain product structures and digital dataarchitecture within the Odoo PLM ecosystem. BOM Governance: Audit, structure, and manage Engineering and Manufacturing Bills of Materials (eBOMs/mBOMs) to ensure a seamlessdata transition from design to production. Configuration Management: Manage the system configuration files andpart data for advanced battery modules, battery packs, batterymanagement systems (BMS), and related sub-assemblies. Revision Control: Ensure all system data, part numbers, andengineering data attachments remain strictly revision-controlled andaligned with final engineering releases. NPI Data Rollout: Coordinate the digital release and precise systemrollout of New Product Introductions (NPI) and engineering revisionsinto the live production environment.*4. Engineering Change & Cross-Functional Coordination*ECO Ownership: Serve as the primary administrative coordinator for Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) and Engineering Change Notices(ECNs), driving changes through the digital approval workflow. Data Liaison: Act as the central data bridge between Design Engineering, Supply Chain, and Manufacturing to ensure engineeringreleases are accurately reflected in production systems. Effectivity & Cut-In Planning: Coordinate with Supply Chain and Production to determine exact effective dates and inventory cut-insfor engineering changes, minimizing scrap and material obsolescence. Change Communication: Notify procurement and manufacturing teams ofupcoming component changes, substitutions, and end-of-life (EOL) partsto ensure system readiness.
