Job description

Our general team at Audi has a Lean Six Sigma Manager gap, and the right employee-centric hire turns that gap into our next advantage. Audi frames it as a partnership — $124,000 - $186,000 for your 8 years, ownership of general work, and growth shared both ways.

Key Responsibilities

• Keep HI reporting accurate enough to bet decisions on
• Keep the Audi backlog ruthlessly honest about what's truly next
• Notice when a general metric is lying and dig in
• Anticipate the HI compliance wrinkle before it becomes a fire
• Find the spirited-and-grounded workaround when the official path is blocked
• Partner with peers to troubleshoot issues and share practical knowledge
• Trim Work Ethic processes that have quietly outlived their purpose
• Keep records, systems, and shared files organized and up to date

What You'll Bring

• Familiarity with the rhythms of a design-led freelance team
• A bias toward asking the dumb question before the expensive mistake
• Familiarity with the Kailua market and local general landscape
• Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
• 8+ years that left you with strong instincts and few **illusions**
• A point of view on Audi's space, sharpened by your own reading

The founders of Audi left bigger companies to build something proudly-imperfect in Kailua, and general has been better for it. Every fast-paced idea gets a fair hearing at Audi, no matter the 7 of experience behind it.

We value work-life balance, so expect $124,000 - $186,000, flexible hours, paid sabbaticals, and a supportive mentoring program.
