Jennifer Daum

I am a project and operations professional with 20+ years of experience supporting engineering, manufacturing, logistics, technical operations, and cross-functional projects. My background includes project coordination, process improvement, documentation and SOP development, vendor and contractor coordination, purchasing, cost tracking, logistics, data analysis, software validation, and user acceptance testing.

In my current role at Transportation Research Center, I support autonomous vehicle software validation and technical operations. I have developed more than 30 SOPs, created or updated 20+ training modules and knowledge assessments, and trained more than 35 employees while helping identify and resolve technical and process issues.

Earlier in my career, I supported engineering, facilities, construction, and infrastructure projects across multiple automotive manufacturing locations. My experience included coordinating a data center project, facility renovations and shutdown activities, vendors and contractors, purchasing and project costs, technical documentation, and drawings and blueprints. I have also spent five years in domestic and international logistics coordinating customers, carriers, warehouses, customs brokers, documentation, billing, and time-sensitive operational requirements.

I earned an Associate of Applied Business in Accounting with honors in 2025 and enjoy continuing to expand my technical and analytical skills. I am particularly interested in project coordination and administration, operations, PMO support, document control, process improvement, financial or business operations, and analytical roles where I can solve problems, organize complex information, improve processes, and keep work moving.

I am most interested in remote opportunities that offer continued learning, increased responsibility, and a clear path for professional growth. I work best in environments that value organization, accuracy, initiative, collaboration, continuous improvement, and employees who are willing to figure out how to make things work better.
