Job Description

WE ARE DOING

We are committed to work life balance by promoting this REMOTE telework option.

• When you cannot find the data that you need, leverage relationships to help find answers;
• Build and document models that accurately forecast many different types of costs for RMS’ products, based on the data that you collect;
• Write documentation that explains your models, consistently document process, and create audience-appropriate presentations;
• Make your (and your team members’) cost models accessible to others by building and testing prototypes (in Excel or another tool) of web interfaces;
• Other duties as needed or required;

WHO YOU ARE

The ideal candidate for this position is someone who:

• Has strong customer relationship building skills.
• Has an understanding of non-recurring material, labor and sustainment costs.
• Possess in-depth knowledge of manufacturing technologies and processes.
