  I am very excited to have the opportunity to transition to the Rincon Mine in Argentina. Analyzing applications required for start up, driving out requirements, working with the vendors to perform fit/gaps, and working with key stakeholders to establish effective and efficient business processes are key components of the role. There is so much more (I.e., application integrations, working with end users, etc.) making this an exciting opportunity. Happy to be part of the team!
