TrinityRail is seeking a Sr. Analyst, Customer Operations in Dallas, TX. This senior role owns the full order lifecycle — from order defined through asset placement on rent — while assisting Account Managers across the team, as well as providing insight to operational performance metrics. The Sr. Analyst drives operational excellence across order delivery, customer dispute resolution, and abatement audit accuracy, and serves as the escalation authority needed to keep orders moving across every internal function. This role requires deep operational expertise, a process improvement mindset, and the ability to influence and escalate across Logistics, Billing, Portfolio, Capacity, Maintenance Facilities, and leadership without direct authority.
What You'll Do
End-to-End Order Delivery & Escalation Management
Own the complete order lifecycle from proposal signature through asset placement on rent, maintaining full visibility across every stage and escalating proactively to any department needed to keep the order moving.
Customer Dispute Resolution
Lead the Customer Dispute process and ensure timely, accurate resolution of credit requests beyond Account Manager authority.
Abatement Audit & Accuracy
Conduct and oversee the monthly pre-batch closing abatement audit to ensure abatement is applied intentionally and only where lease responsibility and wear-and-tear determinations support it.
Team Development & Coaching
Assist, train, and develop Account Managers across order delivery, railcar shopping, regulatory compliance, shop network support, and customer account management.
Performance Oversight & Reporting
Own and report on KPIs including Turn Time, On Time Delivery, Customer Satisfaction, and Employee Engagement and support cars in shop administration for both internal and external maintenance facilities
Project & Continuous Improvement Leadership
Drive continuous improvement initiatives across Customer Operations including process redesign, tooling improvements, and workflow optimization. Champion AI adoption and technology-driven process improvements within the team.

- Quality and timeliness of KPI and Operating Plan reporting.
- Reduction in escalations tied to role confusion or process gaps.
- Account Manager development and coaching outcomes.
- Abatement audit accuracy and dispute cycle time.

- Ability to manage multiple concurrent workflows across cross-functional teams.
- Analytical mindset with the ability to cross-reference multiple data sources to resolve delivery blockers.

- Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple initiatives simultaneously.
