Location: Salt Lake City, UT

Reports to: General Manager

Compensation: $120 - $130K + bonus

We are an innovative manufacturer in the building materials sector, delivering high-quality solutions that simplify construction for professionals and homeowners alike.

As we grow, we’re building a culture where collaboration, improvement, and innovation thrive—making this an exciting time to join our team.

Your Role:

As Director of Manufacturing, you’ll lead end-to-end operations for an innovation-driven product line. You’ll start on the floor—proving and scaling processes, driving production, and building a strong team. Working with Product and R&D, you’ll help launch new products, standardize practices, and uphold safety and quality. This is a player-coach role: leading by example while developing frontline leaders who can sustain performance at scale.

What You’ll Do:

Drive Production: Oversee daily output while ensuring scale-up doesn’t compromise safety, quality, or efficiency.
Optimize Processes: Monitor key metrics, resolve bottlenecks, reduce downtime, and codify cost-efficient systems.
Lead & Develop Teams: Hire, coach, and grow supervisors, leads, and technicians. Build a culture of accountability and improvement.
Champion Quality & Safety: Enforce quality-at-the-source, maintain safety programs, and ensure OSHA/EPA compliance.
Partner for Growth: Collaborate with Product/R&D to accelerate launches and scale systems.

What You’ll Bring:

7+ years leading manufacturing in industrial or building materials environments, with experience taking processes from pilot to volume.
Strong floor presence with a servant-leader mindset.
Expertise in scaling production: layouts, tooling, and process windows into efficient operations.
Proven ability to hire, coach, and develop strong teams.
Commitment to safety, quality, and compliance.
Spanish-English bilingual a plus.
