Smartsheet Solutions Architect

Global Power Components is a privately held, growing manufacturer of UL heavy gauge steel fuel tanks, trailers, large generator enclosures and modular metal enclosures for housing fully equipped electrical distribution and control equipment.

Global Power Components (GPC) is seeking a highly skilled Smartsheet Solutions Architect to lead the deployment, optimization, and administration of Smartsheet across our Project Management, Engineering, and Operations teams. This role is responsible for bridging the workflow gap between what Project Managers commit to clients (VOC scheduling, forecasting, milestone communication) and the true engineering lead times, deliverables, and internal workflows required to execute hyperscale, utility, and OEM programs.

The objective is to create a unified, intelligent scheduling ecosystem inside Smartsheet—one that integrates PM schedules, engineering workflows, dashboards, reporting, and automated alerts—ensuring accuracy, transparency, and real‑time alignment across all stakeholders. This position will serve as the enterprise owner of Smartsheet’s health, structure, and strategic value at GPC.

• Serve as the primary administrator and subject matter expert (SME) for all enterprise‑grade Smartsheet functionality.
• Build, configure, and maintain sheets, work spaces, dynamic views, reports, data mesh, and Control Center blueprints.
• Create and manage permission structures, user roles, governance standards, and sheet lifecycle management.

• Develop automated workflows to ensure engineering deliverables, internal lead times, and gating requirements are fully integrated into PM‑level schedules.
• Build interoperable systems that tie VOC commitments to true internal capacity, engineering readiness, and release maturity.
• Create standardized templates and control frameworks that allow multi‑building, multi‑series hyperscale programs to roll up into unified dashboards.

• Review existing Smartsheet assets and convert them into scalable, efficient, standardized tools.
• Identify gaps, bottlenecks, and inefficiencies in current PM/Engineering workflows and design Smartsheet‑driven improvements.
• Drive adoption of automation, integrations, and advanced Smartsheet capabilities to reduce manual effort and optimize communication loops.

• Automated notifications
• Conditional workflows
• Engineering release gates
• Task predecessors / dependencies / critical path
• Cross‑sheet formulas & data pipelines
• Integrate Smartsheet with ERP, Power BI, Excel, and other enterprise tools as needed.
• Support API‑based integrations to connect engineering, scheduling, and PMO data sources.

• Schedule adherence
• Engineering readiness
• VOC commitments
• Program‑level and portfolio‑level health
• Risk flags, aging tasks, and bottlenecks
• Develop consistent reporting packages for weekly PM/Engineering alignment calls.
• Support program launch templates, series‑build rollouts, and portfolio reporting.

• Provide hands‑on training to PMs, Engineers, and leadership on new Smartsheet tools.
• Develop SOPs, quick‑start guides, and governance documentation for long‑term sustainability.
• Champion the adoption of Smartsheet as a unified scheduling and workflow tool across all GPC facilities.

• Evaluate and maintain the quality & accuracy of all Smartsheet structures.
• Ensure ongoing alignment between Smartsheet usage, PMO planning, engineering sequencing, and capacity planning.
• Drive continuous improvement in how GPC leverages Smartsheet to support enterprise growth.

• 3–7 years of experience as a Smartsheet expert, administrator, or Smartsheet‑focused operations professional.
• Demonstrated expertise in enterprise Smartsheet
