Production Supervisor

This role is designed for engineers who want to build strong manufacturing and leadership experience early in their careers by working directly in a 24/7 production environment before advancing into broader technical or operational leadership positions.

You will lead a frontline production team while remaining closely connected to the manufacturing process-applying engineering principles to troubleshoot issues, improve process stability and quality, and develop operators' technical capabilities. If you enjoy solving real-world manufacturing challenges, leading people, and building a long-term career in operations leadership, this could be an excellent opportunity.

Our supervisors operate with a collaborative, team-first mindset-developing employees, partnering across departments, and creating clarity around expectations and standard work. The team values open communication, continuous feedback, and a culture that encourages challenge, growth, and accountability.

• Lead and develop a frontline production team through coaching, mentorship, cross-training, and performance management.
• Utilize data-driven problem-solving tools and root cause analysis to improve quality, reliability, yield, and operational performance.
• Oversee day-to-day production activities for a team of approximately 10 employees in a 24/7 manufacturing environment.
• Reinforce process discipline and standard work while monitoring operations and addressing process variation.
• Collaborate with Maintenance, Engineering, and Quality teams to drive equipment reliability and process improvement initiatives.
• Promote a strong safety culture through training, hazard recognition, safe work practices, and incident response.
• Communicate priorities, expectations, and operational updates effectively across shift transitions.

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering.
• Interest in frontline leadership within a hands-on manufacturing environment.
• Ability to work a rotating 12-hour shift schedule (DuPont schedule).

• Manufacturing experience in a high-volume or 24/7 production environment through internships, co-ops, technician roles, operator leadership positions, or full-time employment.
• Previous leadership experience managing teams, projects, training initiatives, or continuous improvement efforts.
• Experience with structured problem-solving methodologies such as Root Cause Analysis (RCA), 5 Whys, standard work, or error-proofing techniques.
• Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly and effectively to operators and technicians.
