About the role

- We've doubled year-over-year for two straight years, winning contracts that prove what we've always known: real innovation happens in the dirt, not in conference rooms.
- Our systems transform standard weapons into AI-powered platforms that detect, track, and neutralize drone threats-because a $200 drone shouldn't require a million-dollar countermeasure.
Responsibilities
- This role requires a blend of hands-on technical expertise, leadership capabilities, and strategic thinking to optimize production processes and ensure the highest quality standards for our defense-critical components.
- Design and implement the layout, equipment selection, and operational procedures for a new, state-of-the-art machine shop.

- Develop and implement preventative maintenance schedules for all machine shop equipment.

- Provide technical guidance and support to the manufacturing team on complex machining operations and problem-solving.
- Collaborate with design engineers to ensure manufacturability of new products.
- Evaluate and implement new manufacturing technologies and materials.
- Develop and enforce robust safety protocols and training programs.
Requirements
- 10+ years of experience in manufacturing engineering, with a strong emphasis on machine shop operations.
- Experience in the defense industry or with high-precision manufacturing is highly desirable.
- Dark humor required, thick skin recommended.

Company info

- No PowerPoints.
- Here's what makes us different: ZeroMark operators don't build from behind screens.
- You'll validate tech from Blackhawk helicopters, train alongside Tier-1 units (who happen to be our coworkers), and test at legendary ranges from White Sands to the cliffs of Hawaii.
- When we say field-tested, we mean you'll shoot it, fly with it, and push it to failure.
- We don't tweet about changing the world-we're too busy actually doing it.
