Experience

1. Principal, Aerospace Planning & Operational Excellence

   Ti Squared Technologies

   Mar 2025 — Present · Millersburg, OR, US

   I operate at the intersection of production strategy, enterprise systems, and operational excellence within complex aerospace manufacturing environments.As a Principal in Aerospace Planning & Operational Excellence, I align production planning, inventory control, ERP systems, and quality engineering into cohesive, high-performing operating models. My focus is enterprise integration — ensuring production, materials, systems, and compliance function as a unified ecosystem rather than disconnected silos.In large OEM and defense environments similar to Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman, complexity is inherent: multi-level BOMs, long-lead supply chains, audit scrutiny, and ERP dependencies that directly impact execution. I specialize in turning that complexity into clarity, control, and performance.My expertise includes:• Enterprise production planning & S & OP alignment• ERP optimization & data governance• Inventory strategy & material flow performance• Quality systems integration in AS9100-regulated environments• Cross-functional execution across operations, supply chain, and engineeringI am relied upon when challenges span multiple domains, when ERP and operations are misaligned, or when execution risk threatens cost, schedule, and compliance. I focus on solving systemic problems that strengthen operational resilience and elevate enterprise performance.
