Production Supervisor

Production Supervisor

For more than 70 years, Senior Metal Bellows has been pushing the limits of innovation—designing and building custom-engineered metal bellows for industries that demand the best: aerospace, defense, energy, and beyond. We're not just making parts—we're making solutions no one else can. And we want you to be part of it.

Job Description

Drive performance in a precision manufacturing environment by leading daily operations across machining and inspection. The Production Supervisor is responsible for translating business priorities into execution, ensuring quality, flow, and on-time delivery while fostering a culture of safety, accountability, and continuous improvement. This role requires a hands-on leader who can balance shop-floor execution with big-picture thinking, ensuring work is aligned to the highest-impact priorities and flows efficiently through the operation.

Lead day-to-day operations across machining and/or inspection with inter-department collaboration to ensure alignment with production priorities, customer commitments, and quality standards.

Translate daily production priorities into clear, actionable direction for the team, ensuring labor and resources are aligned to the most critical work.

Ensure effective communication across shifts, including clear pass-downs of priorities, decisions, and any deviations from standard work to maintain continuity of execution.

Maintain process discipline by ensuring accurate movement of parts (physical and system transactions) and proper adherence to routers, prints, and work instructions.

Identify and address workflow disruptions, ensuring issues are resolved at the root cause rather than through temporary workarounds.

Monitor flow of work between operations, proactively identifying bottlenecks and adjusting as needed to protect delivery and throughput.

Promote and enforce a safe working environment, ensuring adherence to PPE and safety procedures.

Utilize available production data and system visibility (ERP, dashboards, etc.) to inform decisions and improve performance.

Lead and develop team members through clear expectations, coaching, and accountability; reinforce standards of performance and professionalism on the shop floor.

Facilitate team meetings focused on safety, quality, delivery, and continuous improvement.

Support internal audits and ensure compliance with quality and operational standards.

Qualifications

Minimum 5 years of experience in a manufacturing environment, preferably in machining, metalworking, or inspection.

Strong understanding of machining operations (CNC milling, turning, or similar) and/or inspection processes is highly desirable.

Demonstrated ability to prioritize work in a dynamic production environment and align team execution to business needs.

Experience working with ERP systems (e.g., Oracle) and production data to support decision-making.

Proven ability to lead teams, enforce standards, and maintain accountability in a shop floor environment.

Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on root cause analysis and sustainable solutions.

Ability to remain composed and communicate clearly during high-pressure or urgent situations.
