• Review engineering change orders (ECOs) for accuracy, set effectivity dates, and implement changes in the POA system.
• Ensure accuracy of modeling and programming against documented requests.
• Collaborate with others to validate BOM accuracy across various configurations prior to options being released to customers.
• Work with business partners to correct errors, including root cause investigation and implementation of corrective actions.
• Initiate and participate in continuous improvement projects (CIPs) to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the team.
• Provide training support to new business partners on the POA process, including roles and responsibilities.

• Bachelor’s degree with a minimum of 8 years of related experience; or 6 years with a Master’s degree; or 3 years with a PhD; or equivalent experience.
• Ability to successfully interact and coordinate across diverse functions and organizational levels, including technical and non-technical teams, managers, and individual contributors.
• Demonstrated problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.
• Knowledge of BOM structures and the engineering change process.
• Experience working with MRP systems.
• Computer literacy, including proficiency with Windows, the Microsoft 365 suite, Microsoft Teams, and email.
