About Helix Linear

Helix Linear Technologies designs and manufactures high-precision motion control systems for industries where performance matters most, including aerospace, medical devices, defense, and advanced automation. Our products power mission-critical applications where reliability and precision down to ±0.0001 inches make all the difference.

Our vision is to engineer what's possible in motion, with precision, integrity, and purpose. We pursue that vision by designing, machining, grinding, and assembling critical motion components in-house, including precision ball screws and linear systems. Our clean, climate-controlled facility is equipped with advanced manufacturing equipment including Citizen Swiss lathes, multi-axis CNC mills, precision grinders, and specialized assembly and test systems.

Helix is growing and investing in new equipment, advanced processes, and the systems required to scale with discipline. As we expand, we're building a world-class precision manufacturing operation, which means higher standards for ownership, communication, urgency, and accountability across every role on the floor.

About the Position

The Operations Excellence Manager owns the systems that make the plant run better, flow faster, and operate safely, without carrying direct production-cell supervision. This is a build role as much as a leadership role: one part systems builder, one part improvement driver, one part reliability and safety steward.

You will own four connected domains; continuous improvement, facilities maintenance and reliability, work-in-process flow, and environmental, health & safety, all pointed at a single number: on-time delivery. Continuous improvement removes the waste that erodes it, reliable equipment prevents the downtime that kills it, disciplined flow and clean system data make the schedule trustworthy, and a healthy safety posture protects the whole operation from disruption. Several of these functions, a preventative maintenance program in particular, do not yet exist in structured form, and you will stand them up from zero.

You will direct your team as the execution arms of the function, with the authority to build out the team as it matures.

Responsibilities

Continuous Improvement: Own the CI portfolio, prioritization, sequencing, and measured results, and direct your team as its execution arm. Begin by value stream mapping the highest-value jobs to find where OTD, quality, and cycle time are actually lost, then attack the waste with Lean methods.
Special Operational Projects: Help lead and support ad-hoc projects that improve operations across the organization, for example, making Epicor a trustworthy source of planning and scheduling dates. Build the foundation first: define every machine as a work center, correct routings and times, and grid the factory so a physical location maps to a work center. Then drive the floor discipline (job clocking, move reporting, scrap reporting) that makes the schedule real. Treat it as a behavior-change effort, not an IT project.
WIP Flow: Own the flow system, layout, WIP caps, routing logic, and the handoff of material once an operation completes, so that work keeps moving and Epicor's picture of where a job lives stays accurate.
Facilities Maintenance & Reliability: Stand up a preventative maintenance program where none exists today, asset register, PM intervals from OEM specs and run-hours, and a working schedule, on a TPM foundation that protects spindle, way-lube, coolant/filtration, chiller, and compressed-air systems. Scale the maintenance team as the workload justifies.
Shop-Floor Visibility: Develop Enet into a KPI-driven, digital view of the floor, built on clean data rather than ahead of it, with machine uptime and downtime among the metrics that anchor it and feed OEE.
Environmental, Health & Safety: Hold standing accountability for EHS, OSHA recordkeeping and compliance, hazard communication, environmental permits, and FOD/ESD discipline, and direct your team on execution without ever trading the compliance floor for project velocity.

Who You Are

You build structure out of ambiguity. You are comfortable creating systems, not just running ones that already work.
You protect the safety and compliance floor under pressure, and never let improvement momentum crowd out EHS.
You are credible on the floor with operators and supervisors, and you drive behavior change, not just process documents.
You are data-disciplined; you insist on clean inputs before you trust the outputs.
You coordinate across production, engineering, and quality to get things done, without needing to own the headcount to do it.

What You Bring

5+ years in manufacturing operations, manufacturing/industrial engineering, or operational excellence, in a machining or discrete-manufacturing environment.
Demonstrated Lean/CI experience with real, measured results — VSM, kaizen, waste reduction, standard work.
Hands-on competence with equipment reliability and maintenance planning, able to build a PM/TPM program, not just oversee one.
Working knowledge of an ERP/MRP system; routings, work centers, capacity and scheduling logic; Epicor a bonus.
Practical familiarity with EHS compliance (OSHA, environmental) in an industrial setting.
Experience in an AS9100D or aerospace/defense quality environment, including FOD and ESD discipline.
Exposure to defense supply-chain requirements (e.g., CMMC) and customer flow-downs.
Six Sigma or formal Lean certification, MES/OEE tooling experience, or familiarity with linear-motion components (ball screws, acme/lead screws, actuators) or comparable precision machining.

What Success Looks Like

On-time delivery trends toward the 90% goal, with CI initiatives showing measurable cycle-time and waste reduction on the highest-value job families.
Epicor work centers, routings, and times are accurate enough that planning/scheduling dates are trusted without manual correction.
A functioning PM program is in place, asset register built, PM intervals scheduled, and unplanned downtime declining.
Enet reflects real-time, accurate floor status, with OEE and downtime data clean enough to drive decisions.
Zero EHS compliance gaps; record keeping, hazard communication, and FOD/ESD discipline hold under production pressure.

Why Join Helix

At Helix, manufacturing isn't just what we do, it's who we are. Our work is built around precision, craftsmanship, and continuous improvement.

You'll work in a clean, climate-controlled facility with advanced equipment, alongside machinists, engineers, operators, and commercial team members who take pride in their work and hold themselves to high standards.

Helix is building something meaningful, not just high-precision products, but a company defined by integrity, clarity, and disciplined execution in industries where the stakes are high. We engineer with purpose, take ownership of our work, and believe doing things the right way matters.

We offer competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, retirement plans, PTO, and major holidays, along with steady daytime hours.

If you take pride in solving problems, contributing to a team that values craftsmanship and accountability, and doing work where precision and reliability matter, Helix is a place where your work will truly matter.

Helix Linear Technologies is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Due to U.S. export control laws, applicants must be U.S. persons (U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident).
