Precision Hermetic Technology (PHT) is an AS9100-certified aerospace manufacturer driven by precision, discipline, and forward momentum. We operate in a highly regulated environment where quality is non-negotiable and continuous improvement fuels growth. We are seeking a Human Resources & People Systems Director to lead the design and execution of scalable HR systems that support growth, compliance, and employee development in a regulated aerospace manufacturing environment.

Our people power that standard. At PHT, our core values shape how we work and how we lead:

• Teamwork - We collaborate with respect, urgency, and shared standards of excellence.

This role partners closely with operations leadership to strengthen the full employee lifecycle — attracting, onboarding, developing, and retaining a high-performing workforce — while maintaining rigorous compliance in a regulated aerospace manufacturing setting. As PHT scales, this position helps move HR beyond day-to-day administration into structured, scalable People Systems that reinforce performance, documentation, and accountability.
