Job description

Our people drive outcomes in live operations.

Organizations in the life sciences and other critical industries need a partner who can define what’s next and stay accountable once it’s live. That’s the work here: we design, implement, and govern the operating models that turn disruption into durable competitiveadvantage.

You need frontline execution judgment, not just the ability to deliver strategy slides. The work is designing for resilient operations in the life sciences and other critical industries. The opportunity is to positively impact the lives of real people: your family, your friends, your colleagues, and others around theworld.

You will work directly with customers in high-stakes environments, including labs, manufacturing sites, and control rooms. Every situation is different, but in all cases, innovation and change cannot compromise quality, production, orcompliance.

You’re committed to designing, running, and governing the “best digital architecture for the client,” helping them use AI to get the most out of their physical and digital assets to achieve their desiredoutcomes.

You’re evaluated on results, not project completion alone. Whether it’s accelerated batch release, reduced deviations, or increased throughput, your success is defined by the measurable impact you make on the client’soperations.

Why people choose to build a career atStellix

That judgment is only the beginning. Stellix team members develop a rare, compounding blend of strategic and operational expertise toward something bigger: the opportunity to create an AI-empowered operational transformation partner that can guide organizations into a new frontier of operationalexcellence.

Our team members help define how these environments run. You’re helping to build the new frontier of the business itself, combining people, data, systems, AI, robotics, and intelligent automation to change what’spossible.

Most partners can either design the future or run live operations. Stellix team members do both. They work directly with customers, not just for them, to design, run, and govern the adaptive operating models that will make their business moreresilient.

Those individual results add up to something more lasting. Stellix team members are building a company that creates meaningful outcomes not just for customers, but for the communities theyserve.

Life at Stellix

On the floor, in the data, with the customer.

Our people work where the operation is — plants, labs, control rooms, and the systems behind them — designing, running, and governing the models that keep them adaptive. One team, blending strategy and execution across functions and industries, turning continuous change into durableadvantage.

What we offer

Close to the operation, honest about complexity, and measured on outcomes — not activity. You’ll partner directly with the customers whose production depends on getting itright.

• Continued learning &certification
• Employee-owned(ESOP)

The approach

Four connected disciplines. One accountable team.

Careers here span the full lifecycle — design it, implement it, and govern it once it’s live. Wherever you sit, the workconnects.

Operational Foresight

See risk and opportunity before they hit the floor. We use live plant data and modeling to plan the next move with confidence — so decisions are made early, not in acrisis.

Strategy in Motion

Turn strategy into sequenced, executable change that adapts as conditions shift — not a binder that sits on a shelf. Outcomes stay the fixed point; the planflexes.

Digital Infrastructure for Adaptive Operations

The connected data-and-control backbone — from IIoT sensors (internet-connected industrial devices) to MES (manufacturing execution systems that run and record production) — that lets operations flex withoutbreaking.

Outcomes and Adaptive Advantage

Measurable results that compound: faster time-to-batch-release, higher uptime, fewer deviations, lower cost-to-serve — and the resilience to keep improving as changecontinues.

Senior AI & Automation Solutions Consultant
