Ensure Engineering Change Notices (ECN’s) are implemented appropriately and within the specified timeframe at the plant level. Work with cross-functional teams on cost roll-ups and cost analysis, ensuring BOM and routing accuracy supports reliable product costing. Collaborate with production, supply chain, and quality teams to validate BOMs and routing changes, ensuring manufacturability and compliance with specifications. Analyze manufacturing processes and recommend improvements to increase efficiency, reduce waste, and advance lean manufacturing initiatives. Troubleshoot and resolve ERP data issues related to BOMs and routings, working closely with IT support as needed. Ensure all updates to manufacturing data are compliant with company policies, industry standards, and regulatory requirements. Support the IFS implementation through legacy BOM/routing data cleansing and migration, and user acceptance testing (UAT), authoring work instructions, training users, and providing go-live and hypercare support. Document and communicate revisions to BOMs and routings, providing training and support as required to stakeholders across the organization. Participate in ERP system upgrades, testing, and implementation of new modules relevant to manufacturing operations and data management. Qualifications Post-secondary education in engineering, engineering technology, or a related technical field is an asset.

Ability to communicate technical information clearly with cross-functional teams. Attention to detail and dedication to data accuracy. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and relevant engineering software. Preferred Skills Lean manufacturing or Six Sigma certification. Experience with process mapping and continuous improvement projects. Knowledge of regulatory standards relevant to manufacturing (e.g., ISO, etc.). Experience in a CTO manufacturing environment, including exposure to product configurators or CPQ tools, is an asset.
