THE ROLE :

As a Senior Manufacturing Operations Advisor , you will work directly with owners, presidents, and general managers inside high-mix, RFQ-driven manufacturing environments.

Your role is to do what you’ve done your entire career — just at a much higher level of impact:

Diagnose where operations are leaking time, money, and trust.

Identify the real causes behind late orders, margin bleed, and chaos.

Serve as a trusted operational peer — not a salesperson, not a software pusher.

You won’t be “selling AI.” You’ll be helping manufacturers finally fix the problems they’ve been managing around for years.

And no — you don’t need to be an AI engineer.

We have world-class technical talent building the systems. Your value is judgment, credibility, and operational truth.

WHO IS THIS FOR:

This role is for operators who’ve learned manufacturing the hard way — by living it.

You’ll thrive here if you deeply understand:

How production actually breaks under pressure

Why ERP and automation projects so often fail

Where spreadsheets quietly destroy margin and visibility

How change really happens on a shop floor and why forcing it never works

If you’ve spent years:

Running plants

Fixing broken schedules

Protecting margins in messy environments

Holding operations together with duct tape, grit, and experience

This role lets you apply that hard-earned expertise to transform manufacturing at scale — without owning the day-to-day firefighting anymore.

COMPENSATION & GROWTH

This position has no caps on earning .

Your impact, relationships, and results directly shape your upside.

More importantly, this role offers something rare:

Respect for your experience

Exposure to elite technical talent

A seat at the forefront of how AI reshapes manufacturing — the right way

Final Thought

Manufacturing is entering a once-in-a-generation transition.

AI will either be layered on top of broken systems… or guided by people who understand how plants truly operate.

This role exists for the second kind of leader.
