Global Supply Chain Data Scientist

Description

The defense industry is undergoing rapid transformation, with increasing global complexity and evolving security demands redefining what it takes to compete. Organizations are under growing pressure to deliver with both precision and speed while adapting in real time. Success requires more than incremental improvement; it demands the ability to build capability, scale performance, and drive meaningful change across the enterprise.

The role will require close partnership across a matrixed organization, including collaboration with supply chain stakeholders, SIOP, and technical teams. The ideal candidate will be an influential change champion who can define what good looks like, coach stakeholders on effective use of the tool, and drive execution through strong communication, accountability, and influence without direct authority.
