The Continuous Improvement (CI) Manager is responsible for driving operational excellence and creating measurable value across a thermal engineered materials manufacturing site. This is a highly hands-on role that requires deep engagement with day-to-day operations, learning the manufacturing processes end-to-end, and identifying practical opportunities for improvement, throughput gains, and cost savings.

Conduct regular Gemba walks to observe processes, engage teams, and identify real-time improvement opportunities.
Develop and maintain value stream maps to eliminate waste and improve flow.
Ensure Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) are updated and standardized following process improvements.

Performance & Analytics:

Analyze production and performance data to identify trends, constraints, and root causes.
Translate CI initiatives into quantifiable cost savings, throughput gains, and operational improvements
Track, validate, and report results of improvement initiatives.

Culture & Leadership

Exceptional leadership and communication skills

Strong problem-solving, analytical, and leadership skills
