You'll be based onsite at our Morrisville, NC HQ and production facilities near RDU International Airport.

• Build and lead a high-performing organization by recruiting, developing, and retaining top talent, partnering with HR to foster an “Employer of Choice” culture grounded in accountability, transparency, and engagement.
• Serve as the site's Lean leader, embedding 5S, Kaizen, Leader Standard Work, and Managing for Daily Improvement into daily operations driving initiatives such as SMED, pull systems, Kanban, and visual management (e.g., Andon) to expose and eliminate waste.

• Own the site's technology and automation roadmap, evaluating and deploying new equipment, print technology, and automation to expand capacity, improve quality, and lower unit cost.
• Drive capital project execution end-to-end from business case and justification through installation, qualification, and ramp ensuring projects deliver expected ROI and are commissioned on time and on budget.
• Champion equipment reliability and uptime through a proactive maintenance strategy (preventive and predictive), minimizing unplanned downtime across printing and automation assets.
• Build and manage strong supplier and vendor relationships to secure material availability, quality, and cost competitiveness in support of high-mix, fast-turn production.
• Serve as a key operational point of contact for customers, translating their requirements into production execution and resolving escalations to protect service levels and satisfaction.
• Establish and govern site metrics and dashboards, using data-driven decision-making to monitor performance, expose gaps, and drive accountability against operational and financial targets.
• Lead new product and process introduction, partnering with commercial and engineering teams to bring new offerings into production smoothly and on a scale.
• Partner across Sensaria sites to share best practices, standardize processes, and support network-wide capacity, continuity, and growth planning.

• Operational Environment Experience: Experience in an on-demand or high‑mix, fast‑turn production environment strongly preferred.
