• Exceptional troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills under high-pressure, zero-downtime manufacturing conditions.
• Strong communication skills to manage technical updates across global teams in the US and Mexico.
• US Citizenship and/or GC restrictions apply and some security clearances may be required due to ITAR regulations and defense contract restrictions.

• Configure and maintain high-volume, real-time middleware connectivity (RFC destinations, ALE/IDoc ports, OData gateway configurations) linking the ERP core to the shop-floor MII/ME layers (excluding SCADA).
• Monitor and optimize memory management, database performance (SAP HANA and SQL Server), work processes, and JVM settings to eliminate latency in manufacturing data transfers.
• Implement strict security hardening, encryption protocols, and user authorization controls across all layers to comply with A&D standards (ITAR, EAR, NIST, and data residency laws between the US and Mexico).
