Job summary

Maybell Quantum Industries, Inc. is seeking an experienced Director of Manufacturing Operations to lead our growing manufacturing organization.

Reporting to the VP of Operations, you will own planning, scheduling, cost, and supplier quality across cryogenic hardware lines, partnering with production, quality, and engineering to scale hardware from prototype to repeatable production. You will drive ERP/MRP implementation, build cross-functional processes, and manage the budget and capital plan.

Qualifications

• 10+ years in manufacturing operations, including 5+ years leading and developing teams.
• Experience taking complex hardware from prototype through repeatable production.
• Hands-on ERP/MRP ownership including implementation or major module rollout.
• Experience building planning and inventory processes in low-volume, high-mix hardware.
• Strong quality and continuous improvement methods (root cause analysis, CAPA, lean).
• Excellent communication and ability to influence across production, quality, and engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Own manufacturing planning and scheduling — build plans, capacity, and on-time delivery commitments.
• Lead, coach, and grow the manufacturing organization.
• Partner with engineering to bring new products into production with design-for-manufacturability.
• Define, baseline, and report operational metrics (on-time delivery, schedule adherence, inventory turns).
• Own ERP/MRP implementation and data integrity (BOM, routing, planning parameters).
• Run demand and materials planning including forecast-to-build and safety stock.
• Manage supplier quality and nonconformance upstream of the build.
• Own the manufacturing budget and capital plan (tooling, equipment, facility capacity).
• Drive continuous improvement programs to increase output.
• Manage supply chain risk alongside procurement (sole-source risk, long-lead components).
