  • Direct engine setup, installation, and test execution in coordination with technicians, facilities, data teams, and other support functions
  • Monitor test progress, communicate status to stakeholders, respond to technical and data requests, and escalate risks or constraints as needed
  • Drive troubleshooting and rapid resolution of engine, facility, instrumentation, and data system issues during test execution
  • Ensure accurate and timely completion of test documentation, post-test summaries, lessons learned, and closure of follow-up actions
  • Maintain ownership for multiple test cells, including operational readiness, maintenance coordination, reliability, and performance
  • Lead continuous improvement efforts such as process changes, cell upgrades, kaizens, and lessons learned read-across across programs and platforms
  • Capture team feedback, prioritize improvement opportunities, and drive implementation through closure and sustainment

Required Qualifications

  • Ability to anticipate risks, remove barriers, and drive execution across organizational boundaries
  • Comfortable operating at both strategic and hands-on levels
  • Strong collaboration, prioritization, and stakeholder management skills
  • Commitment to safety, quality, delivery, and cost performance
  • Demonstrated success working in a unionized manufacturing environment, with understanding of role boundaries, partnership expectations, and effective coordination across represented and salaried teams.
  • Humble and coachable: Approaches others with respect, stays agile in changing situations, and is eager to learn. Actively seeks out and is receptive to feedback, using it as an opportunity for growth and continuous improvement.
  • Relationship-builder and accountable leader: Builds strong, effective relationships across teams, communicates clearly, and fosters collaboration while also holding teams accountable for commitments, performance, and follow-through.
  • Proactive problem solver: Brings strong analytical thinking and sound judgment, challenges existing processes when needed, and solves problems in a way that keeps production moving smoothly and minimizes disruption.
