Key Responsibilities
1. Operations & Production Management
Production Planning: Translate sales and engineering orders into efficient daily, weekly, and monthly production schedules.
Workflow Optimization: Oversee CNC machining, heavy fabrication, welding, assembly, and pressure testing departments to ensure seamless product flow.
Resource Allocation: Manage labor deployment, machine utilization, and raw material availability to minimize downtime and bottlenecks.
Capacity Planning: Identify capacity constraints and implement strategies to scale production based on market demands.
2. Quality Assurance & API Compliance
Standards Adherence: Ensure all manufacturing processes strictly comply with industry standards, specifically API Spec 6A, 16A, 16C, 7-1, and ASME Section IX.
Traceability: Maintain flawless material traceability, heat-treatment logs, and non-destructive testing (NDT) records for every component.
Audit Readiness: Lead the shop floor team during internal and external quality audits (e.g., ISO 9001, API renewals).
3. HSE (Health, Safety, & Environment) Leadership
Zero-Incident Culture: Enforce strict adherence to safety protocols, recognizing the high-risk nature of heavy lifting, high-pressure testing, and machining.
Hazard Control: Ensure regular safety drills, proper PPE usage, and routine risk assessments of all manufacturing equipment.
4. Cost Control & Continuous Improvement
Lean Manufacturing: Implement Lean, Six Sigma, or 5S methodologies to eliminate waste, improve cycle times, and optimize shop floor layout.
Budgeting: Manage the production budget, monitoring variances in direct labor costs, consumables, and maintenance expenses.
OEE Optimization: Track and improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) across critical machinery.
5. Team Leadership & Development
Workforce Management: Supervise and mentor production supervisors, machinists, welders, and assembly technicians.
Skill Mapping: Identify skill gaps and arrange technical training (e.g., advanced welding certifications, CNC programming).
