Summary

Trexon is a manufacturer of specialty cable, wire harness and interconnect solutions serving leading customers in the space, defense, medical, industrial and other specialty end markets. The business is made up of seven business units across the United States, with revenue in excess of $200 million and ~ 900 employees. Trexon is part of Amphenol Corporation (NYSE: APH), a global leader in interconnect and sensor solutions.

The Senior Manager, IT Infrastructure leads the infrastructure function for Trexon and is the technology leader for all non-application infrastructure across the business. The role owns the network, cloud and server environment, identity, end-user computing, backup and recovery, and IT service delivery at every site. ERP and application development are supported by separate teams.

The Senior Manager leads the corporate infrastructure team and works alongside IT resources based at the business units. The role is accountable for delivering through that team: running a clear intake and prioritization process, maintaining a realistic project roadmap, assigning and sequencing work, and holding the team to committed dates. Technical depth is expected, but the primary measure of the role is the reliability of the environment and the predictability of delivery across sites, not necessarily individual hands-on output.

Security operations are delivered through managed providers, including endpoint detection and response and a managed SOC and SIEM service. The Senior Manager owns those relationships and the escalation, vulnerability and remediation processes that sit behind them. The role also co-leads the CMMC Level 2 implementation alongside the IT Technical Lead, who has been driving the program to date, and an external implementation partner, against tight timelines.

Integration with Amphenol raises the standard for IT internal controls. The Senior Manager is responsible for strengthening controls and procedures across the Trexon IT organization and for installing the recurring routines that keep them running, documented and evidenced. The role interfaces periodically with Amphenol IT leadership on standards, reporting and reviews.

Effective communication is integral to the role. The Senior Manager must translate technical risk, cost and options into terms site and corporate leadership can act on, and set expectations the team can meet. The ideal candidate combines credible technical depth across network, cloud and infrastructure with the project management discipline and presence to operate as a leader.
