We are hiring a Senior Process Engineer to extend our process engineering capability, not just our execution capacity.

This is a genuinely autonomous role: you'll be pointed at a business area (claims, billing, enrollment, customer experience) and own the full cycle: diagnose, design using Six Sigma/Lean methodology, implement, and prove the result with a number.

You'll report directly to our EVP of Operations, a Six Sigma Black Belt himself, and work the same way, with the same toolkit, on real operational problems with real budget and real visibility.

What this role is not

Not a role where someone else has already scoped the fix; you find root cause yourself

Not a people-management role at the outset (though scope expands as trust and results build)

Not a call center, inbound support, or scheduling role

Why this role

Real ownership of funded, meaningful projects, not a documentation or facilitation-only seat. A direct line to an EVP who applies Six Sigma at the executive level, and a clear path for scope to expand as trust builds.

ResponsibilitiesWhat independence actually means here

This is the single most important requirement, more important than certification level:

You find and engage the right stakeholders yourself. No contact list handed to you.

You diagnose the true root cause, not the symptom that got reported.

You design the fix using DMAIC, 5 Whys, fishbone, process mapping, and validate it before you build.

You implement it yourself, coordinating everyone across the company needed to make it real.

You're given a target, not a detailed brief, and you're expected to produce a working result.

If you've only ever executed someone else's pre-scoped plan or facilitated someone else's workshop, this isn't the right seat. If you've independently run RCA and driven a fix from diagnosis through adoption, this is built for you.

What you'll actually own in the first 90 days

Five concurrent workstreams: two with a design already scoped for you to build (onboarding/communications rollout, proactive claims-status communication), and three where you diagnose from scratch (a full CX manual-process audit, a claims call-volume root-cause deep dive, and an open enrollment risk assessment). Yes, that's an aggressive load for a first 90 days; we say so directly, and there's a built-in Day 30 checkpoint to re-sequence honestly based on real velocity. We're not looking for someone who needs that spelled out in more detail than a target and a deadline.

Six Sigma Black Belt strongly preferred (Lean Six Sigma Black Belt a plus); candidates with equivalent independent RCA/DMAIC leadership experience are encouraged to apply

8+ years in process improvement, industrial engineering, or business operations A track record of independently leading RCA/DMAIC projects from diagnosis through implementation, not facilitating someone else's plan

Strong process mapping and documentation skills (Visio, Lucidchart, or similar)

Comfortable partnering with a data analyst to turn raw data into dashboards, SLAs, and metrics. You don't build the pipeline, but you know what a good metric looks like

Excellent written and spoken English; you'll present directly to U.S.-based leadership

Full availability across U.S.
