Job description
We're hiring an Infrastructure Project Manager to serve as the onsite IT leader for a growing manufacturing operation. This is a highly visible role where you'll act as the bridge between IT, business leadership, and plant operations. If you enjoy being hands-on with technology while also influencing strategy and working with leadership, this is a unique opportunity to own IT for a site and make a real impact.
What You'll Be Doing
- Act as the primary IT lead supporting a manufacturing site (~100 employees)
- Partner with plant leadership, CFO, and operations teams on IT needs and initiatives
- Support infrastructure, networks, endpoints, and production technology on the shop floor
- Lead and coordinate IT projects, working with global IT teams as needed
- Troubleshoot day-to-day technical issues while also contributing to long-term IT strategy
- Support cybersecurity, business continuity, and site growth initiatives
Why This Role Stands Out
- Hybrid of hands-on IT + strategic leadership exposure
- High visibility with plant leadership and executive stakeholders
- Opportunity to influence IT direction at the site level
- Variety - no two days look the same (operations, projects, leadership meetings)
Requirements
- 5+ years in IT operations, infrastructure, or IT support (ideally in manufacturing/industrial environments)
- Well-rounded technical background (networking, infrastructure, endpoints)
- Strong project and stakeholder management skills
- Ability to work with both technical teams and non-technical stakeholders (plant floor ? executive level)
- Willingness to be hands-on when needed
Nice to Have
- Experience in manufacturing IT / IT-OT environments
- Exposure to SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, MES, or cybersecurity initiatives
- Experience supporting shop-floor technology (industrial PCs, scanners, printers)
- Background in energy, electrification, or industrial automation
- Experience managing vendors, budgets, or forecasts
