Pio Custom Cabinetry is growing, and we're hiring a Production Manager to own and build the operating system behind that growth. Reporting directly to ownership, you'll be responsible for how our custom architectural millwork moves from drawings through engineering, programming, manufacturing, delivery, and installation — and for building the systems, capacity planning, and accountability our roughly 30-person operation needs to reach its next stage.

This is a build role, not a caretaker role.

You're not here to keep today's operation running as-is. You're here to make it work better as we grow.

How you'll work

Find the constraint. Solve it. Systemize the solution. Develop your people. Measure the result. Then find the next one.

Why join Pio

Pio is a rapidly growing architectural millwork and cabinetry company entering its next stage. You won't inherit a finished system — you'll be the person who builds it. The processes, scheduling, and production infrastructure you put in place will directly shape how the company grows.

What you'll lead

Full responsibility across the production operation, reporting to ownership.

Shop & production

  • Engineering & programming
  • CNC, fabrication & assembly
  • Quality control

Logistics & delivery

  • Packing, shipping & drivers
  • Fleet & logistics
  • Installation

Planning & purchasing

  • Production scheduling & capacity
  • Strategic purchasing (with ownership)

What we're looking for

  • Architectural millwork or cabinetry experience — required. You understand how custom work moves from shop drawings through engineering, manufacturing, delivery, and installation.
  • 5+ years of manufacturing or millwork experience.
  • 3+ years leading teams.
  • A systems builder who develops the people around them.
  • Comfortable owning operational capacity and execution.
  • Partners with Project Management on schedule.
  • No degree required.

If you're an exceptional candidate slightly outside these guidelines, we still want to hear from you.

Schedule

Primarily Monday–Friday. Saturdays and additional hours may be required during production peaks and deadlines. Pio doesn't treat sustained overtime as a healthy way to run a shop — building the scheduling, capacity planning, and accountability that make unnecessary overtime the exception rather than the norm is a core part of this role.

Target start date

October 2026

Some flexibility on timing — tell us your availability when you apply.

Compensation & benefits

  • $110,000–$140,000 salary
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield health insurance — Pio contributes 25% toward your premium
  • Paid time off (PTO)
  • 6 paid holidays
  • Dental insurance available (employee-paid)
  • Vision insurance available (employee-paid)
