Job Description Summary

Define and own the global standard for how industrial data moves from manufacturing operations to business decision across Gas Power Global Supply Chain. Positioned as a neutral peer to the Global Process Engineering Authority and Global Process Digital Authorities, this role defines the Integration Contract at the OT/IT boundary, governs how operational signals become business data elements, and ensures every site connects to a single global standard rather than building its own integration. Serves as primary voice in the MIDA engagement and any industrial data architecture decision that affects how manufacturing data reaches the business.

Job Description Key Responsibilities

You will lead the global standard for how manufacturing and operational data moves from the shop floor into enterprise systems across Gas Power. In this role, you will shape how industrial data is structured, governed, and used to support business processes, digital solutions, and AI-enabled decision-making.

As the Global Industrial Data Standards Leader you will:

• Own the Integration Contract, the global standard that defines how OT data is structured, named, and handed off to IT and enterprise systems.
• Lead change control governance for the Integration Contract, assessing cross-system impacts and approving updates before they scale across sites.
• Define data product acceptance criteria for MIDA-connected sites, including validation requirements and business-readiness standards.
• Maintain the target-state industrial data architecture, ensuring new technologies align with the broader Gas Power digital ecosystem.
• Serve as a key voice in MIDA engagements and industrial data architecture forums where manufacturing data standards are defined.

Cross-Functional Alignment and Standards Deployment

You will collaborate across engineering, digital, and business teams to ensure industrial data standards are practical, aligned, and adopted globally.

This includes:

• Partnering with the Global Process Engineering Authority (GPEA) to define how operational data is structured and handed off at the OT/IT boundary.
• Partnering with Global Process Digital Authorities (GPDAs) to ensure downstream data consumption needs are met without disruption.
• Working with the New Technology Introduction team to ensure digital and AI solutions meet Integration Contract standards before pilot and scale-up.
• Providing  AI readiness guidance, assessing whether data products are complete, structured, and reliable enough to support AI-driven decisions.
• Collaborating with Master Data Governance to align operational data standards with enterprise data definitions across SAP and Oracle.

Site Network and Adoption

• Build and coordinate a cross-functional network of site-level representatives spanning GPEA, GPDA, and Digital Technology disciplines who implement and sustain the Integration Contract locally across Gas Power manufacturing sites.
• Establish and chair a cross-functional industrial data standards forum bringing together GPEA, GPDA, and Digital Technology representatives across sites. This forum is the ratification body for changes to the Integration Contract and data product acceptance criteria, decisions made here govern how data flows across the entire Gas Power manufacturing network.
• Monitor Integration Contract compliance across sites, identify deviations, and drive corrective action. Feed lessons learned from each site implementation back into the global standard so every subsequent deployment is faster and more consistent than the last.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Manufacturing, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• 8+ years in manufacturing, industrial data, or process engineering with direct experience working on both sides of the OT/IT boundary.

Preferred Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience defining and governing data standards in a manufacturing environment, not just implementing them. Has held a standards-setting or formal governance role with measurable outcomes.
• Working knowledge of manufacturing execution systems, ERP (SAP and/or Oracle), and how enterprise systems consume operational data from the shop floor.
• Proven ability to build cross-functional credibility with process engineers, supply chain planners, and technology teams simultaneously.
• Multi-site or global manufacturing scope experience; comfortable driving alignment across teams with different priorities and technical backgrounds.

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Familiarity with industrial data architecture frameworks in discrete manufacturing
• Experience influencing across technical, functional, and enterprise governance communities
• A background in standards governance and adoption, not just documentation
• Working knowledge of how machine data is generated and collected on the shop floor
• The ability to operate as a neutral, cross-functional leader in complex environments
• Experience with industrial data platforms, vendor partnerships, or cross-company data architecture standards
