Grounded RV - Production Manager

• 3+ years running or coordinating production in an environment that physically builds things — automotive, RV, commercial vehicles, aerospace, or industrial equipment • Real CAD fluency (NX preferred; SolidWorks/CATIA with willingness to learn NX works) — you can navigate complex vehicle assemblies and produce 2D drawings and work instructions from them. This is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have • Relentless follow-through. You chase every open item to closure, you're comfortable applying pressure and being direct with people every single day, and you hold the line on deadlines even when it's uncomfortable • High motor. You thrive under sustained intensity and a schedule that never stops mattering — and you find that energizing, not draining • Command of the floor: technicians respect you because you know the builds cold, communicate clearly, and back them up when they're blocked • Genuinely organized: you can hold the state of a dozen concurrent builds in your head and in a schedule everyone believes • Startup fit: comfortable with ambiguity, zero bureaucracy, and owning outcomes rather than tasks • Nice-to-haves • Vehicle upfitting, RV, or specialty vehicle manufacturing experience • Manufacturing or industrial engineering background • Hands-on trade skills (electrical, plumbing, carpentry, fabrication) — enough to earn the floor's respect quickly • Experience with production scheduling or MES tools • Lean manufacturing / continuous improvement background
