- Expertise in optimizing facility layouts, slotting, and material-handling automation (conveyors, AGVs, AMRs), complemented by time studies, labor standard development, and dynamic staffing models.
- Proven track record leading capital, tech, and cost-reduction projects end-to-end—developing project scopes, specs, budgets, and SOWs while managing contractors, vendors, integrators, and cross-functional teams.
- Proficient in supporting and integrating Warehouse Management (WMS), Execution (WES), and Labor Management (LMS) systems, paired with strong data analytics, MS Office, and reporting/visualization tools.
