Production Manager

Denver, Colorado | $140,000–$200,000

Help build and scale a new US manufacturing operation for a growing space technology company.

This hands‑on leadership role offers ownership of production setup, team development and the transition from R&D into repeatable manufacturing. You’ll work closely with engineers and technicians on the shop floor, solving problems and establishing the processes needed to deliver quality hardware on time.

The role

• Establish production workflows, tooling, equipment and processes.

• Lead and develop a growing production team.

• Oversee manufacturing, assembly, integration and test.

• Manage schedules, resources and material readiness.

• Improve quality, throughput and delivery performance.

Your experience

You’ll have a strong track record in complex hardware manufacturing and production leadership, ideally including building a production line or taking products from development into serial production.

Space experience is preferred, but relevant aerospace or high‑tech manufacturing backgrounds will also be considered. Cleanroom, bonding/curing and automation experience would be advantageous.

Working arrangements and package

Regular on‑site presence is essential, with typical starts around 7am and approximately four weeks of overseas onboarding, potentially split into two visits.

Alongside the base salary, benefits include health, dental and vision coverage, unlimited PTO and a 401(k) with employer matching.

Applicants must be eligible to work in the US and meet applicable US‑person export‑control requirements.
