Job description
The American Housing Corporation is on a mission to solve the America’s housing crisis through all-out production.

Manage supply chain, quality, assembly, and delivery — work with company leadership to hire for these roles in the near future
Establish and track KPIs to understand how our engineering and manufacturing decisions are impacting the quality and cost of our buildings

Qualifications
7+ years of experience in hardware development with 3+ years in a leadership role
