Job Duties:
Own end-to-end project management for MES and automation initiatives across WRC manufacturing sites
Build and maintain project plans, milestone schedules, and RAID logs — and actively work them, not just maintain them

Run working sessions — set the agenda, facilitate the conversation, capture decisions, publish follow-ups
Produce clear, concise status updates for program leadership; flag risks before they become problems

Coordinate with vendors and integration partners where needed
Work with implementation team to deliver solutions that land with the business
Grow into broader Foundry and enterprise platform work as the program evolves
2–5 years of project management experience; manufacturing, operations, or industrial environments a strong plus
Enough technical exposure to speak credibly with automation/data engineers and plant ops leaders — you don’t need to be an expert, but you need to hold your own
Strong communicator — written and verbal; you can run a tight meeting and write a clean status update
Good judgment about when to decide and when to escalate
Highly motivated, coachable, and comfortable in environments that are still being built
Proficiency in project tracking tools
Willingness to travel to WRC manufacturing sites as needed
