As we scale production, we are building strong operational foundations rooted in standard work, quality, and continuous improvement.

Role Overview

The Production Floor Manager owns the day-to-day execution of manufacturing operations on the production floor. This role is responsible for meeting daily and weekly production goals, ensuring adherence to SOPs and work instructions, maintaining a clean and organized floor, and supporting production teams through hands-on leadership, equipment troubleshooting, and close collaboration with Production Director, Operations, Engineering and R&D teams.

Ensure discipline around WIP management, including labeling, tracking, storage locations, and FIFO practices.
Identify deviations from standard work and drive corrective actions.
Maintain a clean, organized, and audit-ready production floor (5S mindset).

Equipment & Troubleshooting Support

Act as first-line support for equipment issues and production interruptions.
Troubleshoot common equipment and process issues alongside technicians.
Escalate complex issues appropriately and coordinate with Process, Engineering and Operations.
Help minimize downtime and ensure fast recovery to standard operations.

Process Improvement & Cross-Functional Collaboration

Partner closely with Process Engineering to identify bottlenecks, yield issues, and improvement opportunities.
Contribute ideas and data to drive process optimization, efficiency gains, and defect reduction.
Support pilot changes, new process introductions, and scaling initiatives on the production floor.
Provide structured feedback from operators to operations to be triaged for action with process / engineering / R&D.

Safety & Housekeeping

Promote and enforce a safe working environment at all times.
Ensure compliance with safety procedures, PPE requirements, and cleanliness standards.
Address safety or housekeeping issues immediately and proactively.

Qualifications

10-15+ years of experience supervising or leading manufacturing operations (optical fiber experience preferred but other precision manufacturing experience involving optics will be considered).
Strong understanding of production workflows, SOP-driven environments, and WIP control.
Hands-on leadership style with the ability to work directly on the floor.
Experience supporting equipment troubleshooting and process adherence.
Strong communication skills and comfort working cross-functionally with engineering and operations.
