Job description

Manufacturing Data Analyst / Senior Data Analyst

Ascentt is building cutting-edge data analytics & AI/ML solutions for global automotive and manufacturing leaders. We turn enterprise data into real-time decisions using advanced machine learning and GenAI. Our team solves hard engineering problems at scale, with real-world industry impact. We're hiring passionate builders to shape the future of industrial intelligence.

Role Overview

Are you someone who thrives at the intersection of data and real-world operations? We're looking for a Manufacturing Data Analyst / Senior Data Analyst to drive a large-scale data transformation initiative across manufacturing plants—working directly on the ground where impact truly happens.

What You'll Do

  • Work on-site at manufacturing plants to understand operations firsthand
  • Map and analyze plant operations, shop floor, and production data
  • Conduct current-state assessments and build data glossaries
  • Partner closely with business stakeholders, plant teams, and leadership
  • Identify high-impact, quick-win opportunities (micro-transformations)
  • Act as a trusted data consultant, not just a developer

What We're Looking For

  • 6+ years of experience in data-focused roles
  • Strong foundation in:
    • Data Warehousing, Data Modeling, Data Structures
    • Data Mapping, Data Analysis
    • Data Governance, Data Architecture, Data Glossary
  • Experience with manufacturing / plant / industrial data (highly preferred)
  • Strong consultative skills: stakeholder management, process mapping, requirements gathering, data strategy
  • Ability to translate complex data into simple business language

Tools & Technologies (Must Have)

SQL, Python, Power BI / Tableau, Snowflake, Azure / AWS, ETL, Data Pipelines

Industry Experience (Important)

Manufacturing, Automotive, Industrial, Supply Chain, Production, Heavy Industry

Nice-to-Have

Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, IIoT, Smart Factory, Industry 4.0

Location & Travel

  • Highly on-site role
  • Preferred: Kentucky, Indiana, North Carolina (Raleigh)
  • Open to candidates willing to travel frequently or relocate

Why This Role?

This isn't a typical data role.

You'll be:

  • Building trust with plant teams
  • Driving real transformation from the ground up
  • Acting as a bridge between data strategy and shop-floor execution
