  • Lead operating rhythms and execution reviews; track milestones, adoption, and business impact metrics, and provide decision-ready updates to leadership.
  • Drive adoption and sustainment of deployed tools through training, feedback loops, and continuous improvement cycles.
  • Apply Lean and manufacturing engineering principles to ensure digital solutions improve process capability, not just system complexity.
  • Create project charters, integrated timelines, risk plans, and action trackers; remove roadblocks and drive on-time delivery.

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Data Science, or related technical field from an accredited university with a minimum of 7 years' experience in software development, data engineering, manufacturing engineering, MRO operations, or digital product delivery
