Sierra Space Careers: Dare to Dream

We honor those that are not afraid to dream big dreams, those that tenaciously chase their dreams even when others say it cannot be done, those that achieve big dreams and change everything. Those are Dreams Worth Chasing.  

 

At Sierra Space we envision a future where humanity lives and works in space, on moons, and on distant planets. Our mission isn’t restricted to the few, instead we see a future where all people can choose to live, work, discover and explore beyond our planet. Our company is building a platform in space to benefit life on Earth and together we will alter the course of humanity.  

We have a bold mission. We are a bold company. Together, we are an extraordinary team.

About the Role

As a Sr. IT Manager – SAP Center of Excellence, you’ll oversee a team of product owners responsible for defining, documenting, configuring, testing, training, deploying, and supporting the functional capabilities of the overall application architecture. This is a hands-on role where the leader acts as the application architect, collaborating with top product owners to develop and enhance Sierra Space’s integrated digital systems, primarily using SAP and Dassian. As the solution architect, you are responsible for managing business processes across Hyperdrive solutions. This includes leading a diverse team of product owners covering all business process areas driven by SAP, Dassian, Dayforce, Concur, Vertex, COBRA, Oracle Hyperion, Manufacturo Integrations, PLM Integrations, and Workday Integrations.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Define and manage intake process and triage/assignment of tickets

  • Oversight of SAP Support team workload, responsible to resolve conflicts/issues to keep team moving forward productively.

  • Facilitate/oversee prioritization of tickets/requests from business (business assigned priorities are not always appropriate, need a leader to step in if a team member has too many “critical/high” items on their plate to work effectively).

  • Drive clarity in feature requests, business process documentation, bug fixes to assure they are clearly understood and documented.

  • Create and maintain the overall business process and systems design.

  • Manage coordination of end-to-end issue resolution across teams (SAP is highly integrated, support team will need to coordinate frequently to resolve issues and capture upstream/downstream implications), including working with the technical/development team to assure enhancements and integrations are created and maintained.

  • Determine if existing support team is adequately staffed to support SAP (and integrated solutions) as Sierra Space continues to grow/scale — this includes sourcing SAP team for remaining areas and considering additional ad-hoc support needs that could be filled through temporary subcontracting

  • Generate and maintain roadmaps that show where we are going and how we are tracking to plan.

  • Drive communications strategies to assure the business users are aware of system design, and system enhancements and changes coming over time.
