Job Description

WHY DO WE NEED YOU?
CertainTeed Offsite Solutions is at a pivotal moment of growth as we scale the OPA (One Precision Assemblies) panel manufacturing system across a growing nationwide network of Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs). To do this successfully, we need a Senior Manufacturing Systems Engineer who can bring technical leadership, systems thinking, and disciplined execution to ensure our manufacturing model scales safely, consistently, and profitably.

In this role, you are essential because you will define and own the manufacturing system standards that underpin our national expansion. You will translate R D innovation into repeatable, production‑ready manufacturing solutions, ensuring every CMO operates to the same high standards for safety, quality, throughput, and cost. Without this leadership, scalability breaks down—your work ensures that scale drives advantage rather than complexity. We need you to serve as the technical integrator across internal teams and external partners. You will align CertainTeed Platforms R D, Offsite Solutions operations, CapEx and Purchasing, and CMO partners around a single, coherent technical roadmap. Your expertise will guide equipment and vendor selection, manufacturing system design, and site deployment sequencing, ensuring each new site is onboarded efficiently and in full alignment with defined controls and performance expectations. As a senior individual contributor, you will lead complex, first‑of‑kind manufacturing initiatives that demand sound engineering judgment and the confidence to operate with a high degree of autonomy. You will evaluate alternatives, manage technical risk, and make data‑driven recommendations that balance speed, cost, and long‑term scalability. Your ability to structure ambiguity into practical frameworks, operating guidelines, and governance mechanisms is critical to enabling multi‑site execution. Your impact will be measured in outcomes that matter: faster CMO ramp‑up, improved quality and yield, increased throughput, lower conversion costs, and consistent compliance with safety and regulatory requirements. Simply put, we need you to ensure that as our manufacturing network expands, performance improves—not erodes. You will help build the technical foundation that allows CertainTeed Offsite Solutions to grow with confidence, discipline, and operational excellence.
