What You'll Do- Own the production floor end to end against delivery timelines
- Stand up, ramp and run manufacturing lines from build readiness through steady-state production
- Help build the operating system for production at Helicon: capacity planning, bottleneck management, line balancing, escalation paths and daily execution rhythms
- Own equipment installation, procurement, commissioning and acceptance for new production cells and line expansions
- Lead process development and continuous improvement to increase throughput, yield and on-time delivery
- Collaborate with software engineers to encode real manufacturing constraints into Argos (our OS for supply chain, quoting, pricing, simulation)
Who We're Looking ForNeed:
- Experience with high volume composites processes
- Strong understanding of first principles physics and manufacturing fundamentals
- Proven track record of exceptional ability driven by engineering fundamentals
- Experience owning production lines or cells with direct responsibility for output, quality and schedule
- Experience ramping manufacturing processes from early builds into repeatable production
- Ability to lead in both high-mix and high-volume environments, knowing when each requires different systems and decisions
Nice to have:
- Experience going from manual to automated production lines
- Experience skills integrating sensors, controls and mechanical systems
- Experience building production teams, managing technicians and developing manufacturing leaders
We're not for you if:
- You think composites will never be used at industrial scale
- You're not looking for a role where you work with customers
- You prefer advisory ownership to direct accountability for floor execution and delivery timelines
Why JoinBethlehem for steel. Helicon for composites.
For too long the most advanced materials in the world have been left to the exquisite, we're industrializing composites enabling the systems of the future to be built at mass scale.
We want the best people and have no bureaucracy. That includes covering meals and paying for products that make you more productive and our partners stronger.
