About The Position

Raytheon is seeking an Industrial & Process Engineering Digital Technology Leader to drive operational excellence and digital transformation across manufacturing and supply chain value streams. The position is part of the Raytheon Capacity Growth Office Digital Automation team and focuses on applying advanced analytics, modeling, and continuous improvement to optimize processes, scale capacity, streamline workflows, and support data-driven decisions. The position is remote from a U.S. state (excluding U.S. territories), with travel of up to 50% to U.S. manufacturing sites. The initial primary focus is Tucson, Arizona, with travel also to McKinney, Texas; Huntsville, Alabama; Andover, Massachusetts; and other U.S. sites as business needs dictate. The role requires an active existing DoD TS/SCI clearance after the first day, and U.S. citizenship is required because the position requires the ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government-issued security clearance. The role leads capacity planning and monitoring, digital twin and simulation work, Lean and Six Sigma initiatives, end-to-end value-stream design and optimization, data engineering and analytics collaboration, advanced planning and scheduling, control-room or control-tower development, and operational readiness and capability expansion for new product introductions.

Requirements

University degree or equivalent experience and at least 12 years of relevant experience, or an advanced degree in a related field and at least 10 years of experience.
Experience leading digital transformations in manufacturing and supply chain environments.
Experience in Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and continuous improvement methodologies.
Experience in capacity planning, digital twin technology, simulation modeling, and advanced analytics.
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government-issued security clearance; U.S. citizenship is required.
Active and existing DoD TS/SCI security clearance required after day one.
Must reside and work in one of the 50 U.S. states, excluding U.S. territories.
