Job Title:

Manufacturing Operator IV, Lead

Job Description:

The Role:

Our Colorado Springs facility is seeking a motivated, experienced Manufacturing Lead to support daily production operations and provide consistent, visible leadership on the manufacturing floor. In this role, the Manufacturing Lead is responsible for leading and supporting production teams, reinforcing safety and quality as a mindset, ensuring adherence to standard work, and maintaining stable, efficient operations across assigned manufacturing areas.

The Manufacturing Lead supports floor-level execution by coordinating work activities, supporting operators, responding to issues and escalations, and ensuring effective communication and continuity between shifts. Leads are accountable for reinforcing expectations, supporting team performance, and executing safety, quality, delivery, and cost (SQDC) priorities. This role requires strong communication, sound judgment, and the ability to lead through example while partnering closely with Supervisors and cross-functional support teams to resolve issues and maintain consistent execution.

What You’ll Do:

Lead, coach, and support manufacturing operators by setting clear expectations and maintaining a calm, respectful, and professional leadership presence aligned with Entegris PACE values.

Remain visible and engaged on the production floor, overseeing assigned areas and ensuring consistent execution throughout the shift.

Reinforce all safety policies, PPE requirements, and the STEP safety policy; respond to safety incidents, near misses, and code blue situations, escalating appropriately.

Hold self and team members accountable to standard work, quality requirements, shop floor guidelines, and company policies; document and escalate violations when needed.

Support daily production execution by monitoring work order status, press readiness, material availability, and workstation organization.

Respond promptly to equipment, quality, or process issues; coordinate with Maintenance, Quality, Setup, Engineering, and Supervisors to resolve issues and document follow-up actions.

Complete First Piece Verification and ensure ongoing quality checks are performed and documented correctly.

Plan, coordinate, and cover operator breaks and rotations to maintain fairness, floor coverage and production continuity.

Develop, communicate, and maintain press or workstation rotations as assigned, adjusting assignments as priorities change.

Lead Tier 1 meetings, ensure Tier boards and visual management tools are accurate and up to date, and reinforce daily SQDC priorities.

Ensure accurate production, scrap, and work order transactions in SAP and MES; investigate and resolve discrepancies.

Arrive ahead of shift as required to receive assignments, support shift start-up, and ensure readiness.

Provide thorough, timely, and accurate pass downs to oncoming leads and supervisors to ensure smooth shift-to-shift continuity.

Provide supervisor coverage when assigned and serve as an escalation point during off-hours or high-priority situations.

What We Seek:

High School diploma or GED required

Minimum of 3-5 years of manufacturing experience, with demonstrated leadership responsibilities

Proficiency with Microsoft Office tools (Word, Excel, Teams); SAP and MES experience preferred

Demonstrated ability to lead peers through influence, accountability, and professionalism

Strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills with the ability to assess situations and respond effectively

High attention to detail and ability to perform frequent visual and process checks

TWI certification or willingness to complete TWI training

A strong commitment to safety as a mindset, quality discipline, and operational excellence

Physical Requirements:

Ability to work in a manufacturing or cleanroom environment and wear required PPE

Ability to stand, walk, and perform repetitive or fine‑motor tasks for extended periods

Ability to perform detailed visual inspections and handle materials safely

Ability to lift and/or move up to 50 lbs. as required

What We Offer:

At Entegris, we invest in providing opportunities for our employees and promoting them from within. The new hire in this role will have the potential to grow and create relationships across the organization and be recognized for demonstrated success and adherence to company PACE values.

Our total rewards package goes above and beyond just a paycheck. Whether you’re looking to build your career, improve your health, or protect your wealth, we offer generous benefits to help you achieve your goals.

Compensation: $29-$39 hourly range with actual pay dependent on candidate overall skills for the role

Generous 401(K) plan with an impressive employer match

Excellent health, dental and vision insurance packages to fit your needs

Flexible work schedule and 11 paid holidays a year

Paid time off (PTO) policy that empowers you to take the time you need to recharge

Education assistance to support your learning journey

Value-driven culture with colleagues that rally around People, Accountability, Creativity and Excellence.

At Entegris we are committed to providing equal opportunity for all employees and applicants. Our policy is to recruit, hire, train, and reward employees for their individual abilities, achievements and experience without regard to race, color, religion, sexual orientation, age, national origin, disability, marital or military status.
