- Lead the implementation and maintenance of a quality management system aligned with applicable ISO standards, and prepare the organization for audits and certification
- Structure the supply chain, qualify suppliers, and negotiate medium- and long-term supply agreements
- Manage supplier, lead-time, cost, quality, and business-continuity risks
- Recruit, develop, and lead a multidisciplinary team of 10 to 30 people; near-term priorities include hiring an assembler and a Quality Assurance Manager
- Build a culture of accountability, collaboration, health and safety, and continuous improvement on the production floor
- Manage the production floor and the leased spaces and infrastructures
- Partner with engineering on industrialization, design for manufacturability, change control, and the effective transfer of new products into production
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- University degree in engineering, operations management, business administration, or a related field; an equivalent combination of education and experience will be considered
- At least 15 years of progressive manufacturing operations experience, including significant leadership responsibility
- Demonstrated experience in serial production of complex electromechanical products, ideally at annual volumes of 1,000 to 10,000 units
- Hands-on experience implementing or optimizing an EP system in a manufacturing environment
- Experience with ISO certification and structured quality management systems
REQUIRED SKILLS:
- Inclusive, accountable leadership and a demonstrated ability to recruit, build, and develop a team of 10 to 30 people
- Strong command of production planning, procurement, inventory, product costing, and capacity management
- Ability to negotiate and implement durable supply agreements with strategic suppliers
- Results orientation, disciplined execution, and comfort moving between strategy and day-to-day production-floor realities
- Ability to thrive in a growing technology environment where priorities and volumes evolve quickly
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills in French and English
- Sound judgment, autonomy, ownership, and a pragmatic approach to problem solving
ASSETS:
- Experience in aerospace, robotics, RPA, defence, or embedded systems
- Knowledge of regulated environments and traceability requirements for the defence industry
