About the role

Hands-on Factory Site Manager to oversee day-to-day production operations for 800G and 1.6T optical transceiver manufacturing lines, supervise production operators, ensure adherence to optical assembly procedures, monitor production output, and support continuous improvement initiatives.

Responsibilities

  • Oversee day-to-day production execution for 800G and 1.6T transceiver assembly and test lines, ensuring build plans, quality targets, and delivery schedules are met.
  • Build a new product prototyping and testing environment adjacent to our factories. This prototype line will be used for NPI development and to train all new engineers and operators on the production processes for optical transceivers and silicon photonics.
  • Monitor production output including product quantity, scrap, first-pass yield, defects, and WIP/inventory control.
  • Ensure operators follow correct optical handling procedures—cleanroom discipline, fiber handling, ESD protocols, and optical safety.
  • Coordinate with engineering teams to support smooth transitions from pilot builds to high-volume production, with timely feedback on DFM, DFT and quality.
  • Supervise, coach, and evaluate production operators to improve individual and line performance.
  • Ensure staff competency in optical module assembly processes such as fiber alignment, die attach, wirebond, and precision bonding techniques.
  • Manage the general operation of the facility, including operational and capital spending plans, recruiting, training, and cultivating a great working culture.
  • Promote a culture of accountability, efficiency, and continuous improvement.
  • Support cross-training to build a flexible, multi-skilled workforce.
  • Drive productivity and efficiency improvements through strong adherence to 5S, standard work, and safety practices.
  • Lead and participate in root-cause investigations using 5 Why, fishbone analysis, and process mapping.
  • Support capacity ramp efforts as production volumes scale for next-generation optical modules.
  • Maintain accurate daily reports on production status, issues, and key performance indicators.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Industrial Management, or any related field.
  • 7–10 years of manufacturing experience; experience in optical transceivers, optical components, fiber assembly, or electronics manufacturing is strongly preferred.
  • Prior experience in a production supervisor or team lead role in a high-volume environment.
  • Solid understanding of production control, WIP management, and line balancing.
  • Able to work rotating day and night shifts.
  • Good communication skills, both written and verbal, in English.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word) and familiar with shop floor management/MES systems.
