Key Responsibilities
Plant operations & production
• Own daily and monthly production plans for raised access floor panels, understructure, and associated sheet-metal components; meet volume, mix, and delivery commitments.
• Run the factory as a single integrated unit — cutting, forming, welding/assembly, finishing and packing — with clear shift targets and bottleneck control.
• Ensure drawing-to-shop-floor accuracy: interpret production drawings, control revisions, and prevent fabrication errors.
• Drive productivity, yield, scrap reduction and on-time dispatch without compromising quality or safety.
Sheet metal fabrication & tooling
• Hands-on understanding of sheet-metal processes: shearing/laser/punch, bending/press- brake, forming, welding/spot welding, and assembly of floor panels and pedestals/stringers.
• Oversee major drawing tools and dies used in raised-floor and sheet-metal production; plan tool life, maintenance, changeovers and new-tool introduction.
• Coordinate with Product Development on new profiles, panel types, understructure variants
and process capability.
Powder coating plant
• Manage the powder coating line including pre-treatment, booth/oven parameters, film
thickness, colour control, adhesion and finish quality.
• Ensure coating plant uptime, consumable planning, environmental compliance and operator
competence.
Maintenance
• Own preventive and breakdown maintenance of fabrication machines, drawing/press tools
and the powder coating plant.
• Reduce unplanned downtime; maintain critical-spares discipline and machine history.
Quality, product development & compliance
• Work with the Quality Head on in-process checks, incoming material control, finished-goods
standards for raised flooring (dimensional, load, finish)
and customer complaints.
• Support Product Development on proto-to-production handoff, first-article approval and
process standardisation.
• Ensure statutory compliance: factory licence, labour, safety, pollution control for
coating/pretreatment effluent, and good housekeeping.
People & HR
• Lead and review heads of Production, Quality, Product Development and HR; set KPIs and
hold weekly operations reviews.
• Oversee manpower planning, shift rostering, training, industrial relations, discipline and a
safe work culture.
• Partner with HR on recruitment of shop-floor and supervisory staff, performance issues and
statutory HR compliance.
Systems & engineering exposure
• Use AutoCAD and SolidWorks outputs for production planning, fixture/tool discussion and
drawing control (working knowledge required; expert designer not mandatory).
• Maintain production records, MIS for the MD, and cost awareness on material, labour and
Technical skills
• Strong shop-floor command of sheet-metal processes and finishing (powder coating).
• Working exposure to AutoCAD and SolidWorks (read, review and discuss drawings with
Product Development and vendors).
• Comfortable with production planning, maintenance systems and basic industrial
engineering (cycle time, layout, line balancing).
Leadership & personal attributes
• Able to deal simultaneously with Production, Maintenance and HR — firm, fair and present
on the shop floor.
• Hands-on, structured communicator who can report cleanly to the MD and cascade
decisions to department heads.
• Safety-first mindset; comfortable in a Gujarat industrial estate workplace (Changodar).
• Gujarati and/or Hindi shop-floor communication; working English for reports and drawings.
