The Director, Advanced Site Connectivity Solutions is a senior leader responsible for defining and delivering the technology that allows machines, devices, people, and systems at customer sites to connect and communicate reliably. This role will lead the strategy for connecting complex environments such as construction sites, mines, and remote operations, where traditional connectivity may not always be available or sufficient. The Director will determine how technologies such as private 5G/LTE, Wi-Fi, satellite, edge computing, and equipment data systems should work together to create reliable, scalable connected‑site solutions.

This leader will work across technology, product, engineering, commercial, and business teams to ensure connectivity solutions solve real customer problems, support increasingly autonomous and data‑driven operations, and can be successfully deployed across customer sites globally.

• Own the global strategy and portfolio for site connectivity solutions, including investment priorities, project selection, and long‑term roadmaps.
• Define the future vision for how machines, devices, systems, and people connect and share information across customer sites.
• Identify new technologies, industry developments, and market opportunities that can improve customer operations and strengthen our competitive position.
• Partner with senior product, engineering, commercial, and business leaders to ensure connectivity investments support customer needs and business growth.
• Determine which connectivity capabilities should be developed, expanded, standardized, or delivered through external technology partners.

• Lead the overall strategy for how machines, devices, networks, software platforms, cloud technology, and business systems work together at a connected customer site.
• Ensure solutions are reliable, secure, scalable, and able to work across different technologies and customer environments.
• Guide the adoption and deployment of technologies such as private LTE/5G, Wi‑Fi, satellite communications, connected equipment, and edge computing.
• Ensure technology teams and business units are working toward a common approach rather than creating disconnected or duplicative solutions.
• Provide enough technical leadership to challenge assumptions, make strategic technology decisions, and successfully lead highly experienced technical experts.

• Develop a deep understanding of customer operations, including the challenges of connecting machines and technology across complex, large, or remote locations.
• Translate customer problems into practical connectivity solutions that improve how their operations perform.
• Work with product and commercial teams to bring connectivity solutions to market and support customer adoption.
• Help customers use connectivity to enable capabilities such as automation, autonomous equipment, real‑time equipment monitoring, data‑driven decision making, and digital services.
• Develop solutions that can be successfully repeated and scaled across different customers, sites, and geographies.
