Job Description

  • Hands-on experience managing the implementation of Ignition (Inductive Automation) in a manufacturing / plant-floor environment is required.
  • Proven, foundational project management discipline is required—demonstrated command of scope, schedule, budget, resource, risk, and change management across the full project lifecycle (initiation through closeout) using structured methodologies (Waterfall, Agile, or Hybrid).
  • Track record of running formal PM governance—building and maintaining integrated project plans, critical path, RAID logs, status reporting, and steering/executive communications—not solely serving as a technical or implementation lead.
  • 8–10+ years of IT/OT project management experience, including full-lifecycle delivery of manufacturing technology implementations.
  • Demonstrated experience delivering SCADA, MES, historian, or shop-floor data initiatives in a multi-site industrial environment.
  • Working knowledge of OT/plant-floor architecture—PLCs, sensors, gateways, historians, and the flow of data from the shop floor through contextualization to analytics.
  • Proven ability to manage system integrators and multiple technical teams to defined scope, schedule, and budget.
  • Strong project planning, scheduling, dependency management, and risk management discipline.
  • Experience driving execution in matrixed organizations without direct authority, coordinating across IT and operations stakeholders.
  • Excellent communication, facilitation, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate technical detail into business-relevant reporting.
  • Proficiency with project management tools such as Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, Jira, Azure DevOps, or Planner.
