Software Asset Management Jobs in Georgia

Your Job

Georgia-Pacific is seeking a process-focused engineer to support process optimization through remote monitoring and analysis of manufacturing assets—with an emphasis on discrete manufacturing systems that enable safe, reliable, and high-quality production. This role partners with mill operations to identify process variability, performance losses, and emerging issues using data-driven insights and close partnership with frontline operations.

We are intentionally open to candidates from food & beverage and other discrete manufacturing industries, including packaging, converting and bottling/canning, who can bring new perspectives on standard work, loss analysis, process capability, and control strategies. Candidates with hands-on experience in food & beverage will be especially valuable, as their expertise in sanitary design, high-speed packaging lines, and rigorous quality controls can accelerate our ability to reduce losses and raise converting and packaging capability. We want those strengths applied directly to continuous improvement initiatives in our paper and packaging operations to boost yield, uptime, and product consistency.

What You Will Do

• Act as a trusted operational partner to mill teams, closely aligned with how equipment is run day-to-day
• Work directly with operations, maintenance, and engineering to understand constraints, workarounds, and operating realities
• Start each day by reviewing assigned areas/assets for deviations, trends, and early indicators of potential problems; diagnose and proactively notify site partners and subject matter experts (SMEs).
• Use process and equipment data to identify equipment health signals, process control opportunities, and sources of variability; partner with operations, maintenance, controls, and vendors to improve performance, cost, and quality outcomes.
• Collaborate with peers and SMEs to work chronic losses and larger opportunities where combined expertise accelerates root cause identification and sustainable countermeasures.
• Build, maintain, and improve process monitoring approaches (dashboards, models, alerting thresholds, and operating windows) that help keep processes stable and predictable.
• Translate data findings into clear, actionable recommendations for production teams operating in a 24/7 environment; support field validation during site visits as needed.

Who You Are (Basic Qualifications)

• Bachelor of Science or higher in Engineering or demonstrated capability applying engineering principles in a manufacturing environment.
• Experience working within or supporting manufacturing operations (e.g., discrete manufacturing, packaging/converting, food & beverage, consumer products, or similar).
• Experience using a process historian or manufacturing data systems to trend, diagnose, and communicate process/equipment behavior (e.g., AVEVA/OSIsoft PI or similar tools).
• Experience presenting technical information and recommendations to varied audiences (operations, maintenance, engineering, leadership).
• Willing and able to travel to operating sites to build relationships and deepen process understanding (target up to 30%).

What Will Put You Ahead

• Experience improving performance in discrete manufacturing systems (OEE loss analysis, downtime Pareto, defect reduction, changeover optimization, bottleneck management, or reliability-driven process improvements).
• Experience as a operational line leader, shift leader.
• Experience partnering with controls resources and working knowledge of DCS/PLC concepts (control loops, alarms, interlocks, historian tags, and basic control strategy).
• Experience with statistical analysis and structured problem solving (process capability, hypothesis testing, SPC, multivariate thinking).
• Experience supporting manufacturing environments that combine continuous and discrete operations (e.g., paper machines plus converting/packaging lines, high-speed web handling, finishing, or automated material handling).
