Fabrication Manufacturing Production Supervisor

About Torus

Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 545,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne. Our mission is to build the world's first mesh energy infrastructure - built to unite people and communities through resilient, secure, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.

Torus has raised over $267 million from investors like Magnetar, Mercado, ICONIQ and Origin Ventures. The investments are helping to accelerate deployment of modular power plants across utilities, data centers, and industrial sectors. This investor confidence reflects the strength of our team, technology as well as the scale of the problem we are solving.


At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

Required Experience

• Education: High school diploma/GED with extensive experience; an Associate's or Bachelor's degree in a technical or engineering field is a plus.
• Experience: 3+ years of experience in a heavy metal manufacturing or fabrication environment, with proven experience in a supervisory or team lead capacity.
• Equipment Knowledge: Demonstrated operational or strong supervisory familiarity with CNC laser cutting (tube/plate) and precision forming equipment (manual press brakes and/or automatic panel benders).
• Technical Skills: Strong ability to read and interpret complex technical drawings, blueprints, specifications, and geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T).
• Systems: Familiarity with ERP systems (NetSuite preferred) and basic digital workspaces (Google Workspace/MS Office).
