Lifecycle Manager - Engineering Changes (Temp-Perm)
As a Lifecycle Manager, you will facilitate the planning, execution, and implementation of changes driven by rapid design iteration of our early-stage products in our development plant. Your responsibilities start once a change idea is approved in the Change Review Board (CRB) and end once a change is fully implemented in Operations. You will follow the existing change management process and standard work, understanding that judgement and decision making is required, as process and standard work fully defined or tailored to your specific changes. In this role, you will work closely with the Change Management Lead and Operations Program Managers (OPMs).
