Operations Manager
Indianapolis, IN
Apply for this job

Step into a role where your leadership directly shapes how products come to life. As the Operations Manager, you’ll guide a tight-knit assembly and fabrication team through the daily pace of building high-quality equipment. 


You’ll know what to do when the workflow needs clarity, when a bottleneck appears, or when a process needs to get sharper—bringing order, direction, and continuous improvement to a growing operation. You have experience managing people and can elevate a team’s performance through strong operational judgment.

Familiarity with machining, fabrication, or scaling production within a growing organization.


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Ownership: Lead the full production flow—assembly, fabrication, scheduling, and shipping—with visibility across the entire shop.
  • Hands-on leadership: You’ll solve problems in real time, remove friction, and see the results of your decisions every day.
  • Growth: The company is growing, and your process improvements will become the backbone of future operations.
  • Development: Guide and develop an experienced group of assembly techs, fabricators, and shop personnel.
  • Problem Solving: If you thrive in environments that appreciate ownership, continuous improvement, and operational excellence, you’ll feel right at home.


What You’ll Lead

  • Oversee day-to-day assembly, fabrication, and production workflows across facilities
  • Manage production scheduling, resource allocation, and shop-floor priorities
  • Conduct root-cause analysis and implement CI/Kaizen-driven improvements
  • Collaborate with shipping and supply chain to ensure on-time delivery
  • Drive consistency in processes, documentation, and quality standards
  • Coach and develop production talent with high expectations for skill and performance
  • Roll up your sleeves—support troubleshooting, solve ops challenges, keep work flowing


What You Bring

  • Proven experience leading teams in manufacturing, assembly, or production environments
  • Strong operational reasoning and hands-on troubleshooting abilities
  • Experience with Continuous Improvement (CI/Kaizen) and structured root-cause analysis
  • Background in managing production scheduling, product flow, and shop-floor operations
  • Comfortable working fully on-site and leading cross-functional shop personnel
  • Ability to clearly communicate with others and make sound decisions
