Job Description

As a production manager you will have a unique opportunity to lead a cross-functional team of individuals that build heavy-duty automotive wire harnesses in a high-rate environment.

Ensuring production deadlines are met, this individual will maintain high quality and high productivity output by production personnel, introduce new/improved products, upgrade equipment and implement processes.

You will put your experience and knowledge to the test by collaborating with your team to drive step-change improvements in traditional heavy-duty automotive harness manufacturing methods and deliver high-quality hardware on time.

This is a dynamic position that requires the ability to monitor and create actions for key department metrics while managing production schedules, identifying risks and clearly communicating them to key stakeholders. As a sr. production manager, you will lead several complex, multi-disciplinary production teams and projects and will be required to dive into the unique engineering challenges we face daily.

We seek candidates who are flexible with change, positive in the face of challenge, able to think outside the box to solve problems, and who go the extra mile to ensure that internal and external customer needs are met. The ideal candidate will embrace the objectives and culture of the company and integrate them into daily decisions/actions consistently while motivating others to do the same. We value strong character, humility, ability to work with a wide range of people, and an innate desire to get things done.
