  • Vendor Selection & Implementation: Provide technical leadership during the RFI/RFP process, evaluating vendor capabilities against business requirements and overseeing the subsequent implementation phases
  • Operational Excellence: Standardize manufacturing workflows to ensure scalability across multiple production sites while maintaining high availability and security standards

Requirements:

  • Proven Architecture Pedigree: Extensive experience in designing and delivering large-scale MES/MOM (Manufacturing Operations Management) solutions within complex industrial environments
  • Shop Floor Fluency: A deep technical understanding of manufacturing processes, including ISA-95 standards and the nuances of shop floor system hardware
  • Enterprise Integration Expertise: Demonstrated success in integrating MES with enterprise platforms (ERP, PLM, and WMS) to create a Unified Namespace or similar seamless data architecture
  • Stakeholder Leadership: The ability to communicate complex technical architectures to both C-suite executives and shop floor operators, balancing business value with technical feasibility
  • Expertise in leading MES platforms (e.g., Rockwell FactoryTalk, Siemens Opcenter, Aveva, or Apriso)
