Head of Manufacturing

We are seeking a Head of Manufacturing to lead and scale our manufacturing organization.

This is a highly hands-on leadership role for someone who understands how to manufacture complex hardware in a fast-paced environment. You will own the strategy, processes, people, facilities, and systems required to deliver high-quality products reliably and at increasing volumes.

The ideal candidate has built or scaled manufacturing operations within the defense, aerospace, autonomous systems, robotics, or other complex hardware industries and is equally comfortable on the production floor, working through technical issues with engineering, and developing the long-term manufacturing strategy.

Leadership Profile

We’re looking for a leader who can build the manufacturing organization, not simply inherit one . You should be comfortable setting the long-term strategy while still spending significant time on the production floor solving today’s problems.

You know how to bring structure and discipline to manufacturing without creating unnecessary bureaucracy. You understand that in a rapidly growing defense company, manufacturing is not simply a downstream function—it is a critical partner to engineering and an essential part of getting capable systems into customers’ hands quickly and reliably.
