## About the Role

 * Comfortable spending substantial time on a factory floor
 * Skilled at separating root causes from symptoms

## Description

The role. We're hiring a Product Manager to own the software operators use to receive, plan, cut, track, and ship metal. You will work on the factory floor, understand how work and information move, and turn those observations into systems people can trust under real production pressure.

The best solution is not always another screen. You will simplify workflows, remove failure points, and work across software and operations to improve the entire process.

You will:

 * Own the roadmap for inventory, planning, production, quality, and shipping workflows
 * Observe operators directly and map how work actually happens
 * Define requirements, exceptions, and success metrics with engineering and operations
 * Prioritize improvements based on safety, reliability, throughput, and delivery impact
 * Design workflows that remain clear during unusual or high-pressure situations
 * Lead product delivery from discovery through rollout and adoption
 * Measure system usage and operational performance after launch
 * Maintain clear documentation and decision history
 * Coordinate changes across software, training, process, and equipment
 * Build trust with users by responding quickly when systems fail
