Strengthen documentation, standards, and operational rigor
Partner cross-functionally with engineering, assembly, and coating teams
Lead structured problem-solving and root cause analysis efforts
Ensure safe, organized, and high-performing production environments

What You'll Bring

5+ years of experience in precision manufacturing environments (e.g., aerospace, medical devices, machining)
Demonstrated success leading teams in a production setting
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making capabilities
Track record of driving process improvements and measurable operational results
Intellectual curiosity and a first-principles approach to solving complex challenges

Preferred Qualifications:

Exposure to optics, metrology, or high-precision surface manufacturing
Experience with lean manufacturing or continuous improvement methodologies

Why You'll Love It Here

Be part of a mission-driven company helping shape the future of space infrastructure

A collaborative culture that rewards initiative, curiosity, and results
Competitive salary, equity opportunities, and comprehensive benefits
