Reno, United States ScaleWRX Full time

About Us: ScaleWRX specializes in designing, manufacturing, and installing cutting-edge data center containment systems tailored to meet the needs of High-Performance Computing (HPC), GPU environments, hyper-scale data centers, laboratories, and manufacturing facilities. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and team with decades of industry expertise enable us to deliver high-quality solutions that optimize airflow, improve cooling efficiency, and reduce energy costs.


Our product range includes robust hinge and sliding doors, as well as advanced hot and cold aisle containment systems, all designed to ensure the peak performance of data center operations. We pride ourselves on our streamlined processes that minimize downtime during installations and a commitment to speed, quality, and customer satisfaction.


Position Summary: ScaleWRX is seeking an experienced and highly capable Plant Manager to grow and lead our production team and drive the success of our manufacturing operations based in Reno, Nevada. This key leadership role requires a strategic thinker with a proven track record in manufacturing management, who can establish and maintain high performance standards, foster a positive work environment, and ensure the delivery of quality products. Most importantly, ScaleWRX is a manufacturing startup and requires a Plant Manager that has the ability to build key processes and systems from the ground up in order to accommodate high growth.

3. Scheduling and Planning:

  • Leverage data from our MRPeasy software as well as inputs from the Engineering and Installation teams to optimize production scheduling against agreed upon project delivery dates.
  • Analyze production reports for velocity, quality and safety to develop improvement plans and communicate required actions to plant management and production staff.

4. Hiring, Management, and Retention of Employees:

  • Hire, train, coach, and review performance of hourly employees, ensuring they are equipped and motivated to perform their duties effectively.
  • Manage employee performance through regular reviews and developmental activities, fostering a positive and productive working environment.
  • Work with HR on employee disciplinary issues, terminations, and recruitment to build a high-performance organization.

5. Coordination with Engineering, Sales, and Installation Teams:

  • Collaborate with the engineering and installation teams to develop and implement process improvements and ensure capabilities of the production process.
  • Assist with product development by working with sales, engineering and installation teams to provide the manufacturing perspective on next generation products.

6. Quality Control:

  • Oversee the development and establishment of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and work instructions, ensuring proper training and implementation throughout all production areas.
  • Maintain and improve quality standards in cutting, assembly, and packaging for shipment.
  • Conduct root cause investigations to address quality and scrap issues, developing effective corrective actions for non-conformance issues.

7. Freight and Logistics:

  • Manage the packing of finished goods and coordinate the loading of trucks for shipment to customer sites.
  • Ensure accurate and timely preparation of shipping documentation, including bills of lading, to facilitate smooth logistics operations.
  • Monitor and optimize freight processes to improve efficiency and reduce operating expenses.

Experience:

  • Minimum of 10 years of experience in a manufacturing environment.
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience managing a team in a manufacturing environment.
  • General knowledge regarding capacity planning including ERP/MRP and Manufacturing Processing Systems (MPS) is preferred.
