At DuPont, our purpose is to empower the world with essential innovations to thrive. Whether it’s providing clean water to more than a billion people on the planet, producing materials that are essential in everyday technology devices from smartphones to electric vehicles, or protecting workers around the world. DuPont’s Digital Innovation team builds AI, automation, and analytics capabilities that help a global science company work faster, smarter, and with greater impact. The team manages a growing portfolio of priorities across the business and needs a strong leader who can turn strategy into disciplined execution. As the Digital Innovation Operations Manager, you will create the structure, cadence, and visibility needed to keep critical initiatives moving. The ideal candidate brings strong AI and digital fluency, sound judgment, and a builder mindset. You own the operating rhythm of the Digital Innovation portfolio: planning cycles, governance forums, leadership reviews, and the follow-through that happens between them. You track progress across AI, analytics, automation, and digital enablement initiatives, map the dependencies that connect them, and drive the conversations that unblock delivery. Leaders across IT and the businesses depend on a clear, current picture of where the portfolio stands. You gather that picture from program teams, vendors, and Center of Excellence partners, then shape it into executive updates, dashboards, and briefing materials that are short, honest, and decision ready. From AI enablement and training programs to communications, stakeholder engagement, and change management, you ensure new ways of working become lasting habits.



Jira is becoming the backbone of how Digital Innovation plans and tracks work, and this role owns that transition. You will define the project and workflow design, configure boards, backlogs, and reporting to match how the team delivers, and partner with platform support teams on administration and integrations. Just as importantly, you will drive adoption: onboarding teams, running training, writing the documentation people reach for, and steadily raising data quality until Jira is the single trusted source of portfolio status. Jira is properly configured and fully deployed across the team's core programs with agreed workflows and fields, and every team is onboarded and trained. Portfolio status is pulled from Jira rather than assembled by hand, and leadership reviews start from live data. Program management depth:

planning, prioritization, risk management, decision tracking, and relentless follow-through. Adoption and change management

, including knowledge of the ADKAR model. Hands-on Jira experience

, including project and workflow configuration, backlog and board design, and reporting; Confluence and other work management tools are a plus. Executive communication skills

: the judgment to know what a leader needs to see, and the discipline to say it in one page. Working knowledge of Microsoft Collaboration tools





including M365, Sharepoint, PowerBI, Teams, etc… Data storytelling:

the ability to compile information from multiple sources and shape it into a clear, compelling story that helps leaders understand progress, value, and next steps. Strong influential leadership skills

and the ability to build trust quickly with business partners, functional leaders, and technical teams. Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or a related field. ~10+ years in technical project management, program management, business operations, or a closely related role. ~5+ years supporting digital, AI, automation, analytics, or enterprise technology initiatives. ~ Demonstrated experience deploying or administering a work management platform such as Jira, including driving adoption across teams. ~ Experience working with cross-functional teams in a complex, general enterprise environment.

You will work alongside data scientists, analytics leaders, designers, and business partners on emerging technology that is genuinely new to the company, and you will help decide how DuPont adopts it responsibly. The processes, the reporting, the Jira environment, the operating rhythm - you will shape all of it, and the way this team works a year from now will look the way you designed it. Qualified applicants will be considered without regard to race, color, religion, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, national origin, age, veteran status, disability or any other protected class. DuPont offers a comprehensive pay and benefits package.
