  • Manage engineering priorities, project timelines, and resource allocation across multiple sites
  • Develop and maintain engineering documentation, standards, and QA/QC practices
  • Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Maintenance, EHS, R&D, and Supply Chain to align engineering initiatives with business goals
  • Contribute to long-term capital planning, technology roadmaps, and strategic initiatives
  • Identify opportunities for automation, process controls enhancements, and advanced manufacturing technologies
  • Facilitate knowledge sharing and standardization of best practices across IP Corporation
