# Production Planner
As a Production Planner (m/f/d), you will be a key part of our Production & Assembly Team, supporting the local manufacturing of advanced drone systems in Romania. Together with our World-Class Team, you will play an empowering role in delivering systems for one of Romania's most significant defense procurement programs, with drone assembly taking place entirely in Romania under the European SAFE initiative. The Romanian production site will not only support local defense programs but will also contribute to fulfilling customer orders across Europe and support the delivery of mission-critical systems for Ukraine, reinforcing Quantum Systems' commitment to strengthening European security and defense capabilities.
You will be working closely with stakeholders from the Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Procurement, Engineering, and Quality departments to ensure efficient production planning and execution. As Quantum Systems continues to expand its industrial footprint in Romania, your mission will be to synchronize material availability, production capacity, and customer demand while ensuring the on-time delivery of mission-critical systems deployed across Europe and Ukraine.
