Position Summary

The Manufacturing Digital Systems & Automation Analyst supports and maintains the digital systems that power safety, operational auditing, reporting, and compliance across manufacturing sites.

This role combines hands-on Power Platform development with structured data management, reporting preparation, and ongoing system administration. In addition to enhancing digital tools, this position serves as a central coordination resource for Manufacturing and R&D leadership — gathering information, organizing inputs from directors, preparing presentations, and ensuring leadership has accurate, well-structured data.

Success in this role requires equal comfort with problem-solving and disciplined follow-through. The ideal candidate is organized, detail-oriented, and dependable — someone who can build and improve systems while also managing recurring reporting, documentation, and executive support responsibilities.

This is not a purely innovation-focused role. It is a hands-on operational position that blends digital tool development with structured execution and leadership support.
