Understand their processes well enough to tell the difference between what they asked for and what they need. - Establish sensible service levels, intake processes, and prioritization mechanisms that reduce friction encouraging people to actually use them. - Champion adoption, training, and documentation so that the value we paid for actually gets realized. **Operate in a regulated environment.** - Ensure application changes follow established change management, documentation, and quality requirements. - Support compliance obligations related to records management, export-controlled information, cyber security controls, and audit readiness, in partnership with Information Security, Internal Audit, Legal and Quality. **What we're looking for** **Required** - Bachelor's degree in information technology, computer science, engineering, business, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience. - 3–8 years of experience managing technology resources including FTEs and contractors, with direct accountability for their work and development. - Demonstrated experience supporting or implementing commercial off-the-shelf enterprise applications. - Strong working knowledge of Windows Server environments and the supporting ecosystem: Active Directory, IIS, SQL Server, Windows patching and change control. - Working familiarity with Linux administration concepts, ideally RHEL, sufficient to lead a team supporting Linux-hosted applications. - Solid grasp of application support fundamentals: incident and change management, environment strategy (dev/test/prod), release testing, integrations, and authentication. - Excellent written and verbal communication. **Preferred** - Experience in a regulated or engineering-driven industry (e.g. nuclear, aerospace, energy, defense, life sciences, etc.). - Experience with EDMS, EAM, PLM, or engineering application portfolios. - Familiarity with ITIL-aligned service management practices and tooling. - Experience with scripting and automation (PowerShell, Bash, Python) and infrastructure-as-code concepts. - Exposure to cloud and hybrid hosting models, particularly Azure or government cloud environments. - Experience managing software vendors, license agreements, and statements of work. - Experience introducing AI-assisted tooling into enterprise application support or business workflows. **Job Functions:** Job Functions are physical actions and/or working conditions associated with the position.
