Carestream Health (onsite in Rochester, NY) is seeking an experienced Manufacturing Engineering Project Manager to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives supporting the manufacturing of medical digital radiography systems, digital detectors, and imaging equipment.

The PM would lead and coordinate projects as they move into Manufacturing, working closely with the Project Core Teams led by design, Manufacturing Engineering, Manufacturing Operations, Purchasing, Planning, and Manufacturing Leadership.

Will lead projects being implemented in manufacturing. The PM would lead and coordinate multiple projects as they move into Manufacturing, working closely with the Project Core Teams led by design, Manufacturing Engineering, Manufacturing Operations, Purchasing, Planning, and Manufacturing Leadership. This will include full new product implementations, product enhancements, new product features and options (CAT#'s, features into standard BOM), field support options and improvements, supplier costing, manufacturing driven workflow and defect implementations. The PM would be responsible for bringing the cross-functional team together, establishing the project plan and milestones, tracking actions, risks, dependencies, and decisions, and driving the project through manufacturing readiness and implementation. Being able to be a strong representative for manufacturing and effectively communicate the relevant information between the core team and the manufacturing team is essential to the success of this role. This includes running manufacturing meetings to keep everyone aligned on the status of activities and being able to identify risks and issues as they come up.

We need someone who can maintain visibility to the overall portfolio, priorities, schedules, and resource demands; identify where projects are competing for the same Manufacturing resources; and highlight where additional time, resources, or leadership support are needed to achieve the goals of the business. The PM should be empowered to make smaller, day-to-day project and prioritization decisions within the agreed scope, while recognizing when an issue has broader business, resource, schedule, or risk implications. For those larger decisions, the PM should bring Manufacturing Leadership the relevant facts, options, tradeoffs, risks, and recommendations needed to make an informed decision.
