** Digital Manufacturing Architect*
* We are building Digital Manufacturing solutions, driving a large-scale intelligent manufacturing transformation across our enterprise. We are seeking a visionary and highly technical Digital Manufacturing Solution Architect with a specialized depth and breadth of expertise to design, standardize, and scale our manufacturing technology stack, including the strategic integration of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning capabilities.

Your immediate priority will be to partner with a key software vendor to deeply understand the architecture and create a robust product for our manufacturing sites. You will serve as the technical authority within the Digital Manufacturing Team, interpreting internal and external business challenges and recommending best practices. By taking a broad perspective, you will teach our internal teams how the platform works, identify innovative solutions, and guide deployments across our manufacturing sites.

The Digital Manufacturing Architect will bring advanced expertise in MES, Smart Factories, and Manufacturing 4.0 transformation. Working independently with guidance in only the most complex situations, you will help lead scalable digital solutions that improve visibility, accelerate decision-making, and shape the future of manufacturing operations.

Success requires a highly effective communicator who is comfortable engaging directly with end users, operators, engineers, and business leaders to translate operational challenges into scalable digital solutions. The ideal candidate brings equal strength in front-end user experience design and back-end development, ensuring solutions are intuitive, logical, efficient, maintainable, and scalable across multiple manufacturing sites.
