Engineering Jobs in Pasadena Ca Remote

About the Organization:

We are in the middle of a true operational transformation — moving from tribal knowledge and reactive processes to a disciplined, data-driven, standardized manufacturing environment. This is not “check-the-box Lean.” We are building systems, accountability, and a sustainable culture of continuous improvement. If you are hands-on, execution-focused, and motivated by measurable results, this is an opportunity to drive real change.

Position Overview:

The Continuous Improvement Plant Director will lead high-impact operational improvement initiatives across manufacturing. This role goes beyond analysis — you will implement solutions, train teams, standardize processes, and ensure improvements are sustained. High visibility role working cross-functionally with Production, Quality, Engineering, and Supply Chain, with direct visibility to senior leadership.

Responsibilities:

• Lead continuous improvement and lean manufacturing initiatives
• Identify and eliminate operational bottlenecks (quality escapes, rework, prep time, inefficient assembly, material flow issues, etc.)
• Lead Lean and Six Sigma (DMAIC) projects delivering measurable improvements in cost, quality, and cycle time
• Drive root cause analysis and implement sustainable corrective actions
• Convert tribal knowledge into Standard Work, SOPs, and clear work instructions and help move the operation toward a paperless, analytics-driven environment
• Support development of scalable, repeatable processes
• Develop and track KPIs (scrap, rework, downtime, OTD, cycle time)
• Analyze shop floor data and present actionable insights to leadership
• Measure and report savings in dollars, hours reduced, and risk mitigation
• Support ERP improvements, system integrations and implement visual management tools and structured shop floor controls
• Implement digital tools (Power BI, Excel, Power Automate, digital checklists)
• Deliver hands-on Lean/CI training to operators, leads, and supervisors
• Lead Kaizen events, Gemba walks, and cross-functional improvement workshops
• Reinforce accountability and continuous improvement mindset at all levels

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Industrial, Manufacturing, Mechanical Engineering, or related field
• 7+ years of hands-on manufacturing engineering or continuous improvement experience
• Strong knowledge of Lean Manufacturing (5S, VSM, SMED, Poka-Yoke, Visual Management) and Six Sigma (DMAIC, root cause analysis)
• Experience developing standard work, driving real improvements, measurable cost savings, cycle time reductions and shop floor digital tools
• Bilingual English/Spanish Required

Nice to Have:

• Six Sigma Black/Green Belt or Lean certification
• Background in Aerospace, heavy fabrication, or complex assembly preferred
• Experience leading ERP transitions, implementing MES and digital work instruction systems
• Knowledge of ISO 9001 or AS9100 a Huge Plus
• Demonstrated track record of measurable operational improvements
• Self-starter who takes ownership, stands behind data-driven decisions, and thrives in a hands-on environment

We are looking for a Founding Director of Finance and Investments who is prepared to make the business their number one priority and own the entire financial lifecycle of our portfolio.

This is a true "multi-hat" leadership role, You will be responsible for building and owning the engine across three phases: Acquisitions, where you will be responsible for sourcing and underwriting new opportunities Finance, where you institutionalize the back-end through precise cash flow forecasting, investor distributions, and tax strategy; and Asset Management, where you hold the portfolio accountable to your forecasts by implementing aggressive execution plans to ensure every property hits its NOI targets. We are looking for a partner who wants to trade corporate safety for long-term equity and help us build this platform from the ground up.

Note: Local to Texas is highly preferred. If not in Texas, candidates must be willing to Spend 5 business days per month in Houston Texas overseeing property (Asset mgmt), networking with brokers and touring new acquisitions. During periods of due diligence requirements to be Houston may increase. Please confirm in your application this travel (all paid for by company).

Key Accountabilities:

• Investment Modeling & Underwriting: You will be the primary lead on modeling new opportunities. You will take raw data from brokers or off-market sources, build complex pro-formas from scratch, and present the investment case to the committee.
• Preliminary Investment Committee (PIC) Leadership: You serve as the "Gatekeeper." Before any deal reaches the Founders, you are responsible for the internal audit of the case—stress-testing exit caps, opex loads, and reno timelines. You are the final line of defense for the firm's capital.
• Due Diligence & Transaction Execution: Lead the financial "scrub" on all acquisitions. You will own the closing checklist, coordinating with lenders, attorneys, and title companies to ensure every debt facility is funded with 100% precision.

• Tax Strategy & Compliance Oversight: You aren't just filing forms; you are the architect. You will manage the tax filing checklist for all 40+ (and growing) entities, ensuring every K-1 is issued on time and that we are maximizing depreciation and cost-segregation strategies across the portfolio.
• Institutional Reporting & Audit: You will design and produce the quarterly "Investor Report" and "Lender Compliance" packages. You must be able to defend our financials to an institutional auditor or a Life-Co lender with absolute authority.
• Entity & Corporate Housekeeping: You will interface directly with Investor Counsel to resolve legal issues and ensure all corporate entities remain in "Good Standing" across multiple states. You are the "Compliance Officer" for the firm.
• Strategic Financial Planning: You will prepare the annual corporate budget for the Hold-Co and tell the Founders exactly when we have the cash position to buy, when we should refinance, and when we should sell.

• System Architecture: You will help design the infrastructure (CRM workflows, checks and balances) to allow the firm to scale without breaking.

Execution Over Delegation :

We are a lean firm where the Director is expected to "turn the wrenches," not just design the machine. If you are looking to sit in a strategy room and wait for reports to hit your desk, this is not the job for you. You must be an Ambivert—equally comfortable in deep-work silence building a complex model as you are in high-stakes confrontations with vendors or lenders. We are looking for the architect who is excited to turn every wrench today, so they can effectively lead the entire department tomorrow."
