Requirements

3–7+ years leading teams in a fast-paced operations environment, with a strong preference for manufacturing / production / fulfillment / industrial operations.
Proven track record hitting output targets while maintaining safety and quality.
Strong people leadership: coaching, conflict management, accountability, and performance conversations.
Strong data orientation: you run a scoreboard, identify gaps, and drive actions to close them.
Ability to operate in ambiguity and build structure where it doesn’t exist yet.
Clear communicator who can escalate issues with crisp context and options.
Authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future visa sponsorship.

Nice To Haves

Experience with Lean / TWI / continuous improvement systems (daily management, standard work, 5S, kaizen).
Experience building training and certification programs (“train the trainer,” sign-offs, skills matrices).
Familiarity with tech-enabled operations (digital work instructions, dashboards, workflow tools).
Construction / building experience (prefab/modular, wood framing, MEP, finishes, installation sequencing).

Responsibilities

Own daily/weekly plan attainment for your area: throughput, minutes/ft², schedule attainment, and rework hours.
Run start-of-shift and end-of-shift routines; ensure the team always knows the plan, priorities, and constraints.
Coordinate labor, materials, and readiness so work is staged and flow is protected.
Surface blockers early with clear options and tradeoffs (bring “2–3 ways to solve it,” not just problems).
Own safety performance for your area: hazard escalation, audits, incident response, and corrective actions.
Ensure adherence to SOPs / standard work and quality gates; stop and correct out-of-standard work.
Partner with Ops Engineering / training owners to ensure training and certification are completed for tasks performed in the area.
Lead, coach, and develop team leads and operators; set expectations and drive accountability.
Address issues directly and respectfully; hold the line on standards.
Implement a lightweight rotation / cross-training plan that grows versatility and reduces burnout.
Partner with Ops Engineering / CI to identify, prioritize, and execute improvements that move throughput/efficiency metrics.
Support kaizen events, time studies, and standardization; ensure impact is measured and captured (not just ideas generated).
Convert recurring issues into standard work, training content, and improved material flow so the system becomes self-improving.
Own the area “scoreboard”: targets vs actuals, downtime/constraints, quality escapes, and improvement actions.
Participate in weekly leads/metrics reviews; report what happened, why, what changed, and what support you need.
Partner with Factory Orchestration / Sidekick stakeholders to improve dashboards and information displays when current metrics don’t drive behavior.
