Imprimus Labels & Packaging is seeking an experienced, detail-oriented Digital Production Scheduler to join our Dublin, California operation.

This position plays a critical role in coordinating and scheduling digital label production to ensure customer orders are completed efficiently, accurately, and on time. The ideal candidate understands the fast-paced nature of the label printing industry and is comfortable balancing customer priorities, press capacity, materials, production requirements, and changing deadlines.

If you enjoy solving scheduling challenges, working closely with production teams, and keeping jobs moving through a busy manufacturing environment, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain daily and weekly production schedules for digital label printing operations.
• Schedule jobs based on customer due dates, press capacity, material availability, staffing, job requirements, and production priorities.
• Coordinate closely with Customer Service, Prepress/Graphics, Production, Quality, Shipping, and other departments to ensure jobs move efficiently through the manufacturing process.
• Review incoming jobs for production readiness and identify potential scheduling or material issues before they affect delivery.
• Prioritize rush orders and respond to changing customer requirements while minimizing disruption to the overall production schedule.
• Monitor jobs throughout the production process and adjust schedules as necessary to maintain customer commitments.
• Evaluate press capacity, run times, setup requirements, changeovers, and other production constraints when establishing schedules.
• Communicate schedule changes, potential delays, and production priorities clearly to appropriate team members.
• Maintain accurate job status and scheduling information within the company's ERP and production systems.
• Participate in daily production meetings and provide updates regarding priorities, capacity, bottlenecks, and delivery risks.
• Work with production leadership to identify opportunities to improve workflow, throughput, equipment utilization, and on-time delivery.
• Assist with production reporting and analysis as needed.

Qualifications

• Prior experience in production scheduling, production planning, or manufacturing coordination strongly preferred.
• Experience in the label printing, commercial printing, flexible packaging, or related printing industry highly preferred.
• Knowledge of digital printing and converting operations is strongly preferred.
• Understanding of pressure-sensitive label manufacturing processes, including printing, finishing, inspection, rewinding, and shipping, is a plus.
• Experience working with ERP, MIS, or production scheduling systems.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple jobs and changing priorities simultaneously.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively with production employees, supervisors, customer service, and management.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to meeting customer delivery requirements.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and other Microsoft Office applications.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who can see the entire production picture—not simply enter jobs onto a schedule. The successful candidate will understand how scheduling decisions affect press utilization, labor, materials, finishing operations, customer commitments, and overall plant performance.

Experience working in a pressure-sensitive label manufacturing environment will be especially valuable.
