  • Translate technical system behaviors and data pipeline outputs into executable program plans; partner with engineering teams to prioritize fixes, releases, and enhancements
  • Create structured queries, dashboards, and reporting to enable non-technical stakeholders to leverage engineering data for faster root-cause identification and resolution
  • Identify SBoM data gaps impacting part selection accuracy, cost avoidance, and downstream operational readiness; drive cross-functional remediation
  • Diagnose repository logic and support GitLab deployment troubleshooting for job failures, enhancements, and configuration updates
  • Manage complex, multi-disciplinary projects to fulfill program requirements and timelines
  • Identify areas of development within the third party service and collision organization and implementing strategies to enable scale, enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve service experience
  • Role requires high levels of initiative, independent judgement and indirect leadership capability
