Job description

Plant Head — World's Largest Eyewear Manufacturing Facility
Lenskart | Bhiwadi, India | On-site | Full time

Mission Brief: Build the Factory That the World Hasn't Seen Yet
We didn't just build India's largest eyewear factory. We built a living, intelligent manufacturing system — and now we're looking for the leader who will take it to a level no one in this industry has reached.

This is not a plant management role. This is a platform leadership role — where the platform is a 3,000+ person, fully automated, AI-integrated factory that serves tens of millions of customers globally.

? Core Mandate: Own, Build, Transform
1. AI-First Factory Operations (The Builder's Focus)
Intelligent Systems Ownership: Lead the deployment and continuous improvement of AI/ML systems across the factory — including computer vision-based quality inspection, predictive maintenance models, AI-driven production scheduling, and real-time yield optimization engines. You won't just use these systems — you will define their roadmap,



partner with data science and engineering teams to build them, and ensure they are embedded in every critical decision on the shop floor.
Digital Manufacturing Architecture: Own the end-to-end smart manufacturing stack — MES, IIoT sensor networks, PLC/SCADA integration, AMRs/AGVs, AS/RS systems, and the WES↔WMS↔MES integration layer. Ensure this architecture evolves continuously and stays 3–5 years ahead of industry standard.
Data-Driven Decision Culture: Drive the transition from supervisor instinct to system intelligence. Every throughput decision, quality gate, preventive maintenance call, and capacity allocation should be driven by real-time data. Your job is to make that the default, not the exception.
2. Manufacturing Performance & P&L; Impact (The Business Focus)
Factory KPIs: Own total manufacturing performance across safety, quality, cost, throughput, yield, delivery, and uptime — for a facility producing millions of units annually with 3,00
