Job Description & How to Apply Below
This role leads Engineering, Tooling, Controls/Automation, and Continuous Improvement, partnering closely with Operations, Maintenance, Quality, and NPD. You will be accountable for results, not just strategy.

- Lead hands‑on troubleshooting to eliminate waste, scrap, downtime, and inefficiencies
- Identify, justify, and execute small to mid‑sized capital projects with quick ROI
- Lead automation and controls initiatives that improve productivity and reliability

- Support New Product Development with manufacturability, process readiness, and launches
- Develop and lead a team of engineers, tooling, and controls resources through example

- Champion safety and compliance with a “Safety Without Compromise” mindset
- Visible presence on the manufacturing floor
- Measurable cost savings through continuous, practical improvements
- Faster changeovers, improved uptime, and reduced waste
- Engineering and CI efforts that directly support production, not slow it down

- Proven success driving hands‑on process improvement and cost reduction
- Experience leading automation and controls projects
- Track record of executing multiple small, high‑impact capital projects
- Strong collaboration history with Operations and Maintenance teams
- Willingness to be on the floor — this is not a desk job
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, or related)
- Master’s degree is a plus, not required
You’ll love this role if you:
- Get satisfaction from fixing real problems
- Believe credibility is built through action
- Prefer progress over perfection
- Enjoy rolling up your sleeves and making things better every day
- Want your work to clearly move the needle
This role is not for leaders who prefer managing from dashboards, long roadmaps, or conference rooms.
