• Oversee incidents, problems, and change management activities, ensuring timely resolution, communication with stakeholders, and adherence to SLAs and IT service management processes.
• Manage IT projects such as infrastructure upgrades, migrations, cloud adoption, and new technology deployments, coordinating vendors, schedules, and deliverables.
• Maintain accurate documentation of systems, configurations, and procedures, and promote continuous improvement, automation, and adoption of best practices within the IT organization.
• Oversee and coordinate structured cabling, network drops, and physical infrastructure required for manufacturing equipment, including layout changes, relocations, and production-line expansions.

Required Skills:

• Strong overall technical understanding of infrastructure, networking, cybersecurity, and manufacturing IT systems, with the ability to coordinate experts and make sound technical decisions.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a focus on root cause, long-term fixes, and prevention of recurring issues.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to interact effectively with Manufacturing, Engineering, Corporate IT, and external vendors.
• Strong sense of ownership, urgency, and customer service, especially when dealing with production-impacting incidents.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities, work under pressure, and make decisions quickly during critical events.
• High level of organization, discipline, and attention to detail, including documentation and follow-up.
• Continuous improvement mindset, with willingness to adopt new technologies, tools, and best practices that enhance reliability, security, and efficiency.
