  • Review team labor charges and maintain 6S and Lean Manufacturing standards

  • Manufacturing in Indianapolis since 1946
  • 650,000-square-foot manufacturing facility
  • Complex machining, fabrication, inspection, finishing, assembly, and testing under one roof
  • First-shift leadership opportunity with annual bonus potential
  • Technical role with real responsibility for people, priorities, quality, and delivery
  • Training and educational-assistance programs that support career growth

✅ What we’re looking forRequired:

  • Prior management or leadership experience with direct responsibility for a team
  • 5+ years of manufacturing experience
  • Strong mechanical and technical aptitude
  • Ability to plan work, assign personnel, troubleshoot production issues, and hold employees accountable
  • High school diploma or GED
  • Ability to read technical information and work safely in a manufacturing environment

Preferred:

  • Trade-school, vocational-school, or relevant college education
  • CNC machining experience
  • Experience with Lean Manufacturing and 6S practices

Why you’ll like working here

  • Three medical-plan options, including a base option with no employee premium
  • Dental and vision coverage
  • On-site health clinic, mental-health services, fitness center, and wellness events
  • 401(k) company match and employer HSA contributions for eligible plans
  • Immediate paid-time-off availability and 10 paid holidays
  • Educational assistance and in-house training
  • Company-paid short- and long-term disability and life insurance
