Job Description

Defines and owns the global standard for how industrial data moves from manufacturing operations to business decisions across Gas Power manufacturing sites.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Manufacturing, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
3+ years in manufacturing, industrial data, or process engineering with direct experience working on both sides of the OT/IT boundary.
Able to read, critique, and arbitrate a data contract or payload schema: set naming and structure conventions, assess a data model for completeness, and push back credibly on designs proposed by process engineering and Digital Technology.
Working knowledge of manufacturing execution systems, ERP (SAP and/or Oracle), and how enterprise systems consume operational data from the shop floor.
Multi-site or global manufacturing scope experience; comfortable driving alignment across teams with different priorities and technical backgrounds.
Working knowledge of data quality dimensions relevant to AI readiness, including completeness, lineage, latency, and consistency, sufficient to judge whether a data product is fit for business consumption.
Awareness of OT connectivity and contextualization patterns such as OPC UA, MQTT, Unified Namespace, and plant historian platforms, sufficient to know what is feasible at the OT/IT boundary without owning the implementation.
Demonstrated influential leadership across technical and functional communities: able to drive alignment with site teams, process engineers, and supply chain planners, and to engage credibly with enterprise standards bodies and cross-functional councils.
Background in standards governance, understands the difference between a standard that is documented and one that is adopted, and has the experience to close that gap.
Working knowledge of how machine data is generated and collected on the shop floor, sufficient to have a credible technical conversation with process engineers without owning the engineering content.
Comfortable operating as a neutral convener across functions that have competing priorities, and able to drive alignment through the quality of the standard and the strength of relationships rather than through organizational authority.
Experience with industrial data platform engagements or vendor partnerships where data architecture standards were defined or negotiated across organizational boundaries.
Working knowledge of industrial data architecture standards for structuring operational data, including ISA-95 / IEC 62264 equipment and material hierarchy models and asset and tag naming conventions, with experience applying them in a production environment.
