VP OF OPERATIONS
Diesel Pro Power | Miami, FL | Full-Time | In-Office Only
$140,000 Base Performance Bonus | Realistic OTE: $180K–$220K
THE OPPORTUNITY
Diesel Pro Power is a Miami-based global e-commerce company shipping diesel engine parts to 180 countries. We are hiring a VP of Operations to drive disciplined, systems-driven execution across every department — and to ensure the business scales with profitability, operational predictability, and minimal founder dependency.
This is not a policy-and-procedure corporate role. It is a hands-on operational leadership position inside a high-accountability, high-ownership company. You will work directly with the CEO to translate vision into consistent execution through systems, cadence, and follow-through.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
- Operational cadence and weekly execution rhythm
- Departmental accountability and KPI visibility
- Cross-functional execution and SOP enforcement
- CRM compliance and workflow discipline
- Root-cause problem solving and recurring issue elimination
- Workflow automation and AI-enabled systems improvement
Departments in scope: customer service, purchasing, accounting coordination, warehouse, shipping & receiving, shop operations, and marketing coordination.
WEEKLY RESPONSIBILITIES
You will lead:
- Leadership scorecard and accountability reviews
- Issue-solving cadence (IDS / root-cause discipline)
- KPI reviews and follow-up ownership tracking
- Operational priority alignment across departments
You will ensure:
- Deadlines are met and issues are resolved without CEO intervention
- Accountability is visible and workflows are documented
- Recurring problems are eliminated at the root — not managed repeatedly
- Operational surprises become rare
AI-LEVERAGED OPERATIONS
We are building an AI-leveraged operating company. We are not looking for someone who simply uses AI tools. We want an operator who instinctively searches for leverage, automation, and scalability through systems and AI-enabled workflows — someone who consistently asks:
- How do we reduce operational friction here?
- What can be automated?
- How do we improve visibility and reduce manual dependency?
- How do we make execution more reliable through systems — not heroics?
YOU WILL THRIVE HERE IF YOU ARE
- Deeply curious and systems-minded
- Highly organized and operationally intense
- Proactive and execution-oriented by nature
- Calm under pressure and effective at enforcing accountability
- Driven toward root-cause thinking — not symptomatic fixes
- Comfortable operating without layers of support
THIS ROLE IS NOT THE RIGHT FIT IF YOU
- Wait to be told what to do
- Avoid accountability conversations
- Prefer corporate process over hands-on execution
- Repeatedly solve the same problems without fixing root causes
- Are more interested in strategy than in making things actually work
QUALIFICATIONS
Required
- Bachelor's degree
- Proven operational leadership experience inside a scaling business
- Strong written and verbal communication
- High ownership mentality and strong systems orientation
Strongly Preferred
- EOS / Traction Integrator experience
- KPI and scorecard management
- SOP implementation and documentation
- Experience building AI operational workflows (not just using AI tools)
- Background in distribution, logistics, or process-heavy operations
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
Base Salary: $140,000
Performance Bonus: Tied to measurable operational outcomes
Realistic OTE: $180,000–$220,000
Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, STD, and additional coverage
Location: Miami, FL 33128 — In-office only
BUILT FOR BUILDERS
If your instinct is to create clarity, build systems, enforce accountability, and produce operational calm through discipline and mechanisms — we want to hear from you.
