Job summary

1X in Hayward is seeking a Production Supervisor to own the daily rhythm of the assembly floor, manage people, workflow, safety, and output. You ensure that every NEO leaving our facility is built right, on time, by a team proud of how it got there.

This role sits on our critical path: a disciplined, safe, high-standard floor; you will lead a manufacturing team with focus on throughput, quality, and cost, while driving continuous improvement and cross-training.

Qualifications

• 3+ years directly supervising production or manufacturing teams in a hands-on, on-floor capacity.
• Demonstrated track record of hitting production targets while maintaining quality and safety standards.
• Working fluency in production planning, quality systems, and safety practices (e.g., standard work, defect tracking, lockout/tagout).
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, evolving environment where the process may change quarter by quarter.
• Available to work on-site in Hayward or San Carlos, on a day or swing shift.

Responsibilities

• Hit daily and weekly NEO build targets without compromising safety or quality, and own the metrics that prove it (throughput, yield, first-pass quality, on-time completion).
• Build and lead a production team that is trained, accountable, and engaged — measured by retention, cross-training coverage, and team-level performance against plan.
• Drive defect rates and rework down quarter over quarter through root-cause problem solving, process control, and tight feedback loops with Quality and Engineering.
• Own floor safety as a non-negotiable — zero preventable incidents, full compliance with safety protocols, and a culture where the team raises issues early.
• Surface and lead at least one meaningful process improvement per quarter — something that measurably improves cycle time, ergonomics, quality, or cost.
