• Collaborate closely with cross functional partners in Operations, Engineering, Quality, and Supply Chain to align priorities and program objectives.
• Provide clear, consistent communication with stakeholders at all levels, ensuring program transparency and timely decision making.
• Identify opportunities for continuous improvement, evaluate emerging technologies, and drive adoption of new tools, systems, or approaches.
• Guide automation system design decisions, including controls, robotics, machine vision, PLCs, HMIs, and integrated manufacturing systems.
