- Stakeholder management: Act as a trusted liaison between plant teams and IT (product owners, developers, architects, data/analytics, integration, and security); ensure shared understanding of scope, assumptions, constraints, and priorities.
- Solution evaluation: Partner with IT and the business to assess solution options (configure vs. build, integration impacts, data needs), perform gap analysis, and recommend process/solution approaches.

- Testing & validation: Support SIT/UAT planning and execution; develop test scenarios from process flows; coordinate user testing and defect triage with IT and business SMEs.
- Change management & adoption: Help develop training materials, SOP updates, communications, and hypercare plans; support go-live readiness and adoption measurement.
- Continuous improvement: Identify improvement opportunities, standardize best practices, and track benefits; support lean/CI initiatives and ensure technology changes sustain improved processes.
- Governance & documentation: Maintain process documentation, requirements traceability, and decision logs; support audits and compliance documentation as needed.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Supply Chain, Information Systems, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- 3 years of experience in business analysis, process engineering, operations excellence, or similar roles within a manufacturing environment.
- Demonstrated ability to elicit requirements and map processes across shop floor and plant-support functions.

- Strong facilitation and communication skills, including the ability to work with both hourly production teams and technical IT teams.
- Ability to manage multiple priorities, work with ambiguity, and drive alignment across stakeholders.
- Proficiency with standard documentation tools (e.g., Microsoft 365) and process mapping tools (e.g., Visio or equivalent).

- Understanding of integrations and data flows between shop floor systems and enterprise platforms.
- Lean / Six Sigma training (e.g., Green Belt) or experience applying CI tools (VSM, 5-Why, A3, Kaizen).
- Experience working in Agile delivery teams and with backlog management tools (e.g., Azure DevOps, Jira).
