Production Supervisor

Company Description

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.
