Agile ITR Lead Engineer – Americas

Job Description Summary

The Agile ITR (Inquiry-to-Remittance) Lead Engineer acts as the primary Agile team focal point in the Americas region for Agile Conversions, Modifications, and Uprates (CM&Us) services, managing projects from customer inquiry through order receipt and outage execution.

Upon receipt of a customer inquiry, the ITR Lead Engineer reviews the assigned R1 Gate Case to ensure requirements are met, clarifies customer scope, and provides a clear handover to the Agile ITR Engineer for proposal development. The Lead Engineer provides guidance, oversight, and support to Agile ITR Engineers throughout the proposal creation process and during subsequent customer negotiations. Upon receipt of a customer order, the Lead Engineer reviews assigned R3 Gate requests, manages order assignments, and resolves project escalations.
