  • Develop Bills of Material (BOMs) and standardize PM kitting processes to ensure material readiness and minimize downtime

  • Establish repairable parts and lifecycle management processes, including tracking, warranty oversight, and critical spares strategy

  • Manage MRO vendor relationships, purchasing coordination, inventory costs, and performance metrics to guide efficiency and reduce emergency orders

  • Oversee training governance, CMMS adoption, and workforce development, ensuring compliance with certification, LOTO, and onboarding requirements

  • Support EHS, audit readiness, and reliability efforts by ensuring compliance tracking, documentation control, material traceability, and data-driven continuous improvement

Qualifications
