VP OF OPERATIONS - Miami, FL | Full-Time | In-Office Only | $140,000 Base + Performance Bonus

Diesel Pro Power  |  Miami, FL  |  Full-Time  |  In-Office Only

$140,000 Base + Performance Bonus  |  Realistic OTE: $180K–$220K+

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.

• 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.

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

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.
