About the role

We're looking for a Manufacturing Program Manager to own the orchestration of multiple high-impact, cross-functional programs running in parallel -- facility expansion, new production line setup, vertical integration of key components, and a company-wide ERP transition. You'll be the person who turns ambiguous, multi-quarter initiatives into clear plans, accountable owners, and on-time delivery.

What they're looking for

  • - 5-10+ years of program or project management experience in a manufacturing, hardware, or industrial environment
  • - Demonstrated track record leading multi-million-dollar capital programs end-to-end -- facility expansion, new production line installation, factory relocation, or equivalent
  • - Direct experience with at least one of: ERP implementation or migration (NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, Plex, etc.), vertical integration / in-housing initiatives, or new-product industrialization
  • - Working fluency in manufacturing fundamentals: BOMs, routings, MRP, capacity planning, line balancing, takt time, quality systems, and operational KPIs
  • - Strong command of program management craft: integrated scheduling, dependency mapping, risk management, capex tracking, and stage-gate governance
  • - Excellent written and verbal communication -- you can write a one-page status update an executive will actually read, and run a room with engineers, vendors, and finance in it

This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who thrives in a hands-on manufacturing environment, can hold a portfolio of moving parts in their head, and is equally comfortable in a leadership review, on the production floor, and inside a Gantt chart.
