• Ability to translate enterprise needs into scalable operating models and system strategies and help operationalize them
• Experience influencing business and technical stakeholders
• Semiconductor manufacturing experience (silicon, optics, or adjacent high-tech manufacturing environments)
• Consultative mindset with strong facilitation and decision-shaping capability

• New product development or NPI exposure within supply chain environments
• Experience operating across multiple vertical domains rather than a single function
• Enterprise transformation or operating model design work
• Six Sigma or process optimization background
• Manufacturing and supply chain systems familiarity

• Connect and align vertical supply chain domains to drive end-to-end optimization
• Identify and resolve gaps between functions, processes, and systems
• Guide stakeholders toward standardized and scalable practices
• Translate business needs into process, system, and enablement strategies and support execution
• Partner across operations, supply chain, and architecture teams
• Support cross-functional initiatives impacting multiple domains
• Ensure decisions optimize enterprise supply chain performance, not just individual verticals
• Act as a strategic advisor across planning, sourcing, manufacturing, and delivery functions
