Manufacturing Business Analyst

La Porte
Power BI
Summary
Analytics seat embedded in an aerospace castings operation, applying statistical methods to production, inventory and quality data and turning them into forecasts and recommendations for plant, campus and segment leadership rather than building software. Hands-on Power BI development is treated as a hard filter rather than a familiarity check, and the work runs against MES or ERP shop-floor systems such as SAP, Oracle or the company's own OHCMS, with the analyst expected to act as a system backup, cross-train others on those data platforms and lot traceability tools, and support inventory accuracy and production data reconciliation in a high-mix, low-volume environment. The position entails access to export-controlled items and visa sponsorship is not available.

Summary
Second-line support seat at a small managed service provider, handling hardware, software and network problems across a book of small-business client environments.

Gary
Summary
District technology seat responsible for the school corporation's wide-area and local networks: installing, setting up and testing network components and electronic equipment, verifying that components meet district standards, monitoring the network daily, maintaining a troubleshooting log, and keeping district phone and internet service contracts current. The role also activates security profiles as approved by the IT coordinator, troubleshoots new and remodelled buildings, provides IT onboarding for new staff and school-based support, and reports to the Director of IT. Travel to every school in the district is required, so the holder must have their own transportation and work flexible hours when scheduled; an associate degree in computer science or information technology is required with a bachelor's preferred, A+, Network+, Security+ and MCSE are desired, and experience with Cisco IOS, Windows Server, macOS, Android, Linux and LAN/WAN TCP/IP networking is preferred rather than required.

About this page
Every posting is classified into one of three AI buckets: AI required when the description names specific AI tools as required skills (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) or names LLM/agent/RAG/embeddings as core to the day-to-day; AI mentioned when the description mentions AI tooling in passing without it being the core skill; No AI mention when the description contains none of the relevant keywords. Each row shows the matched keyword evidence inline and surfaces named AI developer-productivity tools as expanded-row chips, so you can judge the signal for yourself.
The geographic filter is opinionated, and here it is five counties: the Lake–Porter–Jasper metropolitan division (which still includes Newton, despite the 2023 rename dropping it from the name) plus the Michigan City–La Porte MSA next door. Unlike every other board on this site, the core county does not collapse to one label. Merrillville is the anchor because the headquarters are there — NiSource and NIPSCO, Centier Bank, White Lodging, MonoSol — but Hammond and Gary are both larger cities, so filing their postings under “Merrillville” would be a lie the map would then repeat. Every municipality outside Merrillville carries its own city label, its own county, and its own pin: Hammond, Gary, East Chicago, Whiting, Munster, Highland, Griffith, Crown Point, Hobart, Schererville, St. John, Dyer and the rest of Lake County; Portage, Valparaiso, Chesterton, Burns Harbor and Hebron in Porter; Michigan City, La Porte, Westville and Long Beach in LaPorte; and Rensselaer, DeMotte, Morocco and Kentland in the rural south. The board stops at the Illinois line, and for many people here that is the wrong side of the commute — a large share of the Region works in Cook and Will counties. It stays out anyway: admitting Illinois to the filter would let every “Chicago, IL” posting in the corpus through, and Region employers post their Region roles with Region cities, which is what this board shows. Berrien County, Michigan and St. Joseph County (South Bend’s own board) are out for the same reason of not claiming a neighbor’s shed. Remote postings are included only when the employer also has an office, plant or campus somewhere in the five counties — otherwise anywhere-in-the-US remote noise would swamp the page. Use the Location filter to narrow to a specific city.
This page is an independent aggregation. Mungomash is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the employers listed. Application-status tracking and email alerts are out of scope. Per-posting salary ranges are surfaced inline when the employer discloses one — structured ATS fields first, JD-body prose as a fallback; rows with no disclosed range render no chip.
