General Manager / Vice President

We’re looking for a hands‑on Operations Manager to lead the full order‑to‑ship workflow across two distinct business segments under one roof: high-volume robotic automation for commercial OEM customers, and precision aerospace & defense (A&D) machining to AS9100 and ITAR/DFARS requirements. This is a shop‑floor leadership role with direct accountability for on‑time delivery, quality, labor and machine utilization, purchasing, inventory accuracy, and customer satisfaction.

• End-to-end production scheduling across both workflows
• Oversee order entry and customer service functions. Serve as escalation point on delivery, expedites, and corrective actions
• Daily and weekly production operations — directing cell leads, machinists, programming/ setup personnel
• Optimize OEE, cycle time, scrap, labor efficiency, capacity planning
• MRP, purchasing, outside service coordination
• Inventory accuracy and turns across raw material, WIP, finished goods, tooling, and consumables
• Oversee shipping & receiving, ensuring on‑time shipment, import/ export compliance
• Operations budget — direct and indirect labor, tooling, freight
• Regular KPI reporting to leadership
• Team development: coaching leads and machinists, recruitment and skills development
• Safety performance and awareness
• Shop organization and cleanliness

• 10+ years of operations experience in a precision CNC machining environment, with 5+ years in a management role overseeing multiple functions
• Direct experience with both high-volume automated production and high‑mix, low‑volume precision machining
• Working knowledge of AS9100, ITAR, and DFARS flowdown requirements
  
  Hands‑on familiarity with CNC milling/turning, multi‑axis machining, robotic load/unload cells, and gauging
• Proficiency with ERP/MRP systems (Epicor preferred, JobBOSS 2 a plus)
• Demonstrated results with lean manufacturing tools: VSM, 5S, Kaizen, 8D problem‑solving
• Basic understanding of operations financials — able to track spending against budget and support capital justification requests
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Operations, or Industrial Technology — or equivalent experience
• U.S. Person status required (ITAR)

• Experience implementing or scaling robotic automation cells (FANUC, Universal Robots, other), integrated CMM and lights‑out manufacturing
• APICS CPIM/CSCP, Six Sigma Green/Black Belt, or Lean certification
• PPAP/APQP experience; AS9100 internal auditor training
• Spanish language fluency

• ≥98% on‑time delivery across both workflows
• External PPM and escape rate trending down quarter‑over‑quarter; zero major findings on AS9100 audits
• OEE in automated cells trending toward 80%+
• Zero lost‑time safety incidents
• Lean and JIT effectiveness
• Operations spendingwithin budget with documented productivity savings annually
