About the Opportunity
A leading OCTG manufacturer, is seeking a proven Threading Production Manager to lead our high-volume threading operations and drive operational excellence. This is not a “desk-only” leadership role — we’re looking for someone who thrives on the shop floor, can inspire and develop teams, and takes pride in delivering premium-quality threaded products that meet or exceed API 5CT and semi-premium standards.
This is your chance to make a measurable impact at a growing facility, shaping a 25 to 50-person threading department, optimizing production throughput, and ensuring flawless execution on every connection.
What You’ll Do

Lead OCTG threading operations across two lines, with four CNC threaders.
-
Oversee GBCD or semi-premium threads, ensuring top-tier quality and compliance.
-
Implement and enforce inspection protocols using gauges, optical comparators, and premium/API thread measurement tools.
-
Drive production efficiency, minimizing downtime, and optimizing resource allocation.
-
Collaborate cross-functionally with quality and maintenance to troubleshoot issues, improve workflow, and maintain equipment
readiness.
-
Promote a safety-first culture, conduct safety meetings, and address hazards immediately.
-
Monitor performance metrics, track cycle times, and recommend process improvements to increase throughput and reduce waste.
What We’re Looking For
-
5+ years of OCTG threading leadership experience (drill pipe experience will not be considered).
-
Strong hands-on knowledge of semi-premium connections — GBCD preferred.
-
Proficiency with CNC threading machines; Mori machine exp a plus.
-
Proven ability to manage large teams in 24/6, high-volume manufacturing.
-
Strong quality control background with API/premium compliance expertise.
-
Professional, decisive, and approachable leadership style — able to coach, motivate, and hold teams accountable.
-
Committed to permanent relocation to South Texas (relocation package provided).
