• Proactively adjust schedules based on supplier push/pull to minimize impact to start‑up dates 

• Communication & Governance:

• Facilitate regular project status and execution reviews 
• Provide clear, actionable updates to technical experts, manufacturing leaders, and stakeholders who will ultimately own the processes  
• Drive structured issue resolution and escalation as needed 

Required Qualifications: 

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related technical field (general technical degree acceptable)  
• Minimum 5–10 years of project management experience in a manufacturing or industrial environment
