About VeroTouch

VeroTouch exists to change how homes are built.

We are a venture-backed construction technology company reimagining residential construction by combining advanced manufacturing robotics and traditional building expertise. At a time when housing affordability labor shortages and inefficiency continue to plague our industry VeroTouch is focused on building better faster and smarter.

Our work sits at the intersection of construction and technology. We design and operate systems that integrate 3D printing advanced materials and lean production principles into real-world job sites. This is not a theoretical exercise. We are actively building homes learning in real time and turning those experiences into repeatable and scalable operating models.

VeroTouch is early-stage hands-on and execution-driven. The people who thrive here are builders in every sense of the word.

If you are excited by challenges energized by responsibility and motivated by the opportunity to help define the future of an industry that rarely changes you will feel at home here.

Position Summary

VeroTouch is hiring a Print Team Operations Manager to run the management engine of our concrete 3D printing production team. This is an execution-first leadership role responsible for ensuring the print crew can reliably meet daily and weekly production demands through disciplined planning scheduling resource coordination safety QA/QC and performance management.

This role is not helpful support to the field team; it is fully operational ownership of the management tasks required to deliver production results. You will build and run the systems that prevent chaos: clear plans clear accountability tight handoffs real reporting and fast issue resolution.

You will be measured by print uptime production output schedule adherence quality consistency and how effectively the team executes under real-world site conditions

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Core Outcomes (What Youre Accountable For)

• Production delivery: Print operations hit weekly production targets (linear feet cubic yards segments completed scheduled pours/prints executed) with predictable cadence.
• Operational discipline: The print team runs on a repeatable system: daily plans shift readiness checks materials readiness equipment readiness and documented work standards.
• Uptime & reliability: Downtime is tracked categorized reduced and escalated with urgency and clarity.
• Quality & consistency: Layer geometry surface finish bond quality cure protection and dimensional tolerance are managed with documented QC procedures and corrective actions.
• Safety & compliance: The site is safe organized and compliantevery day not just during audits.
