Vice President, Programs

**Vice President, Programs** **About Re:Build Manufacturing** Re:Build was founded to ensure that the next generation of important products are made, at scale, in the US. We've assembled a powerful set of complementary capabilities and lines of business that enable us to design and manufacture nearly anything. Our acquired and organically grown businesses employ experts in every major engineering discipline, and we're leveraging their combined expertise to migrate to increasingly sophisticated program development and production, as well as the generation of our own products. Our unique set of capabilities – integrated into a single company and built upon common processes and culture - lend themselves to highly complex systems and products, and we offer customers a range of services including product and systems design, automation, fabrication, assembly, and large volume manufacturing. Our customers span a wide array of industries including aerospace, defense, mobility, healthcare, pharma, biotech, clean tech, chemicals, energy, lifestyle, food production, and industrial equipment. The way we go about this work is as important as the work itself and is guided by The Re:Build Way, sixteen principles that dictate the way we work with each other, customers, vendors, and the communities where our business operates (link to The Re:Build Way principles). **Position Overview** Re:Build Manufacturing is seeking a Vice President of Programs to lead the transformation of a **$100MM+ business into a core growth engine** for the company.
