We are hiring a Plant Development & Manufacturing Director to lead the establishment and operation of Greenlyzer's production facility in Singapore. This role is responsible for the end-to-end execution of the facility setup and transition into stable, high-quality manufacturing operations.

The ideal candidate has deep experience building and managing manufacturing plants—from facility layout and equipment installation to team building, compliance, and production performance. While the core manufacturing process is already developed, this role requires strong leadership to bring everything else together: infrastructure, people, systems, and operational excellence.

Key Responsibilities

- Lead all aspects of facility setup, including infrastructure planning, contractor management, utilities, EHS compliance, and production readiness.

- Oversee equipment installation and commissioning, ensuring timelines, quality standards, and budget adherence.

- Hire, train, and lead the production operations team, including technicians, supervisors, QA/QC staff, and maintenance personnel.

- Build and implement manufacturing systems—SOPs, workflows, training, safety protocols, batch documentation, and maintenance routines.

- Ensure full compliance with Singaporean regulatory frameworks including NEA, SCDF, and workplace safety standards.

- Manage day-to-day operations once live: production scheduling, output targets, quality metrics, downtime reduction, and continuous improvement.

- Coordinate closely with R&D, process engineers, and senior leadership to align plant operations with evolving product and business needs.

- Drive a culture of ownership, safety, and performance across the facility.

Qualifications

- 10+ years of experience in manufacturing leadership roles, including end-to-end plant setup and production operations.

- Strong track record managing factory buildouts, scale-up, and team development in chemicals, advanced materials, membranes, or precision manufacturing.

- Deep understanding of industrial operations, including utilities, EH&S, facility compliance, workforce management, and quality systems.

- Skilled in managing multi-disciplinary teams, third-party contractors, and vendor relationships.

- Degree in Engineering, Materials Science, Industrial Systems, or a related technical field.

- Demonstrated ability to lead plant operations independently and solve problems in fast-changing environments.

- Excellent communication, planning, and leadership skills.

Preferred Experience

- Experience with membranes, films, or specialty chemical production.

- Familiarity with cleanroom standards and controlled manufacturing environments.

- Prior work in a startup or new-plant environment, where systems and teams were built from scratch.

- Exposure to lean manufacturing, quality systems (ISO/QMS), or industrial automation tools.
