- Develop and maintain training materials, quick reference guides, and job aids to support consistent and compliant system usage across the manufacturing team

- Collaborate closely with Master Data teams to ensure accurate, timely, and governance-compliant data management, including material master data, production orders, and batch records
- Identify recurring data quality trends and escalate systemic issues with supporting documentation to appropriate stakeholders
Cross-Functional Coordination
- Coordinate proactively with Supply Chain and Warehouse teams to ensure seamless data flow, process alignment, and timely resolution of interface issues between manufacturing and downstream functions
- Triage and escalate system issues to IT, Digital, or Master Data teams as appropriate, providing clear documentation of the issue, business impact, and recommended resolution path
- Participate in cross-functional meetings and working groups related to iShift operations, data governance, and manufacturing process alignment
Continuous Improvement & Documentation
- Support and lead continuous improvement initiatives related to manufacturing data processes, identifying opportunities to streamline workflows, reduce errors, and improve data integrity
- Maintain up-to-date standard operating procedures (SOPs) and work instructions for SAP and iShift system usage within the manufacturing environment
