Full Job Description

We are seeking a high-octane Manufacturing Manager who lead from the shop floor, not from an enclosed office. You will join a team who are championing our next phase of technological innovation while maintaining an uncompromising standard for safety, product quality, and bottom-line profitability. If you thrive in fast-paced, challenging environments and build deep credibility with both frontline operators and executive board members, this is your next challenge.

Provide direct, hands-on technical support and leadership across locations, troubleshoot complex production issues, assist with automation implementation, refine processes on the floor, and coach teams to eliminate bottlenecks and boost daily output.
Stay actively involved in production planning, consolidations to improve throughput, scheduling, and resource allocation to meet customer demand while controlling labor and material costs.
Lead continuous improvement initiatives focused on waste elimination, process standardization, equipment reliability, preventive and predictive maintenance, and capital improvement projects.
Support and look to resolve processes and production needs with new innovative solutions. Build equipment upgrades, and manufacturing technology improvements that increase efficiency and productivity.
Contribute to financial oversight by supporting our Key Performance Metrics.
Monitoring expenditures, tracking variances, and identifying opportunities to improve profitability.
Ensure compliance with OSHA regulations, company safety policies, and industry best practices while promoting a strong safety culture across all locations.
Analyze key manufacturing metrics including Overall Equipment Effectiveness, downtime, yield, scrap, labor efficiency, quality performance, and cost per unit to identify opportunities for improvement.
Be able to understand our metrics and provide operational updates, recommendations, and strategic insights to executive leadership.
Perform other duties as assigned in support of company objectives and Core Values.

2 or 4 year Technical experience required; additional manufacturing, technical, engineering, or operations education preferred.
Valid driver's license and ability to meet all company, state, and federal driving requirements.
Willingness and ability to travel approximately 75% of the time, including overnight travel.

Demonstrated commitment to workplace safety, regulatory compliance, and enforcement of safety standards.
Strong focus on quality systems, process consistency, and continuous improvement methodologies.
Excellent communication skills with the ability to effectively collaborate with frontline employees, supervisors, plant managers, and executive leadership.
Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and perform effectively in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and the ability to learn company-specific manufacturing and reporting systems.
