    The opportunity. We’re seeking a hands-on Manufacturing Manager to lead daily manufacturing operations, develop a skilled team, and continually improve how our custom systems are built. You’ll partner with Engineering, Service, Purchasing, and Inventory to ensure quality, efficiency, and on-time delivery of our products, and custom-built systems. Reporting directly to company leadership, you'll have the opportunity to make a lasting impact by building a strong manufacturing culture and help position the company for continued growth and success.

    What you’ll do

    • Lead the production of Miltec UV Curing Systems and spare parts, balancing build schedules with sales demand and replenishment needs.
    • Set clear expectations on the manufacturing floor and support employees through coaching, onboarding, career development, and ongoing technical training.
    • Promote a safe, quality-focused workplace where people take ownership, communicate openly, and solve problems together.
    • In conjunction with the Manufacturing Engineer, lead continuous-improvement projects using Six Sigma principles and own the ongoing 5S program.
    • Develop, track, and present key manufacturing performance metrics (KPIs), including productivity, delivery, and  performance, to leadership on a regular basis to support data-driven decision-making and continuous improvement initiatives.
    • Coordinate with Engineering on custom system design and builds, as well as system upgrades and manufacturing improvements.
    • Work with Service to support repairs and troubleshooting when production expertise is needed.
    • Keep equipment maintained and ensure teams have the tools and supplies needed to work efficiently.
    • Monitor production progress and key issues, then provide clear, regular updates to key stakeholders.

    What you bring

    • Bachelor’s degree in Management, Manufacturing, Engineering, or a related discipline required.
    • At least 5 years of supervisory experience in electro-mechanical manufacturing.
    • Strong technical aptitude, including mechanical and basic electrical, and confidence using hand and power tools; able to communicate technical information clearly.
    • A practical, visible leadership style with the ability to develop people, prioritize work, and address challenges constructively.
    • Organizational and problem-solving skills, with an interest in quality and continuous improvement.
    • Working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
    • Interest in using AI for process and workflow improvements.
    • Positive, "can do" mentality and ability to easily relate to people at all levels.

    The work

    This is a hands-on role based primarily on the manufacturing floor. The work may include standing for up to 8 hours, and lifting up to 30 lbs, along with good manual dexterity. The work may also transition to an open office environment at times to complete critical administrative tasks and reporting. 

    Why Miltec?

You’ll have meaningful ownership, close collaboration with Engineering and Service, and the opportunity to make manufacturing safer, smarter, and more effective. Your leadership will help turn custom designs into reliable systems customers depend on.
