In this role, you will partner closely with Manufacturing Engineering, Equipment Design, Quality, Supply Chain, Facilities, and Production Operations to translate product and process requirements into actionable program plans, then deliver them on aggressive timelines. You will create clarity in fast-moving environments, anticipate risks, and ensure that every team remains aligned as we scale from prototype builds to high-volume U.S. manufacturing.
What You'll Do
Lead cross-functional program execution for new manufacturing lines, equipment deployments, and process ramps from early concept through SOP
Develop, maintain, and communicate detailed project schedules, spanning process development, validation builds, equipment design and fabrication, FAT/SAT, installation, and production readiness
Drive alignment and accountability with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Facilities, Equipment Design, Supply Chain, and Production to ensure program milestones are met
Coordinate equipment and tooling delivery including supplier timelines, shipment logistics, installation sequencing, and commissioning activities
Identify program risks early, perform mitigation planning, and surface clear recommendations to technical and non-technical partners
Build and improve program management processes and tools that accelerate execution, enhance transparency, and scale with the company’s rapid factory expansion
Track and manage program budgets, equipment readiness status, and cost improvements related to each manufacturing initiative
Translate complex technical information into clear, concise updates for leadership and cross-functional stakeholders
What You'll Bring
4+ years of experience in manufacturing program management, manufacturing engineering, equipment engineering, or new product introduction (NPI)
Strong ability to work across technical disciplines and communicate effectively with engineers, operators, suppliers, and leadership
Experience launching manufacturing lines, scaling processes, or bringing new automated equipment into production
Demonstrated success managing fast-paced programs, resolving competing priorities, and driving execution in ambiguous environments
Highly organized mindset with exceptional attention to detail and a bias for action
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related technical field, or equivalent hands-on experience in manufacturing environments
