Implement and improve documentation, SOPs, and safety protocols.
Drive cost reduction and throughput gains through smart tooling, layout, and process optimization.
Partner with engineering, field deployment, and executive teams to ensure alignment from design through delivery.
Oversee and manage external manufacturing partnerships to ensure alignment with quality standards, production timelines, and overall business objectives.
Requirements

10+ years in manufacturing leadership, ideally in hardware startups, energy systems, or industrial products.
Strong background in mechanical assembly, low-voltage electrical, and pressure system integration.
Proven success scaling from prototype to low-rate/high-quality production.
Deep experience managing work orders, BOMs, inventory, QA, and safety.
Excellent team leadership, mentorship, and shop floor presence.

Familiarity with field deployment, commissioning, and ruggedized builds.
Background working with vendors, contract manufacturers, or outsourced component suppliers.
Six Sigma, Lean, or related continuous improvement credentials.
