· Dashboard & Report Development: Design, develop, and deploy automated, interactive dashboards and reports using visualization tools (e.g., Power BI, or SAP Analytics Cloud) for departmental users and executive leadership.
· Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Production, Supply Chain, Finance, and Quality Assurance teams to understand their unique KPIs and translate business requirements into technical data solutions.
· Process Optimization: Identify trends, bottlenecks, and anomalies in the manufacturing process (e.g., yield loss, equipment downtime, or material waste) and recommend data-driven solutions.
· Data Governance & Integrity: Ensure high data quality and consistency across all reports by validating source data from SAP and maintaining robust data documentation.
Skills
Core Competencies:
· Analytical Thinking: Ability to synthesize complex, disparate data streams into clear narratives.
· Communication: Strong ability to translate complex data insights into actionable recommendations for non-technical stakeholders.
