Production Supervisor Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a production supervisor in Texas?
The most direct path is combining hands-on production floor experience with a degree in manufacturing technology, industrial engineering, or operations management. Texas does not require a state-issued license for production supervisors, but employers across the state strongly prefer candidates who hold a Certified Production Technician credential from the Manufacturing Skills Standards Council or have completed an accredited workforce program through a Texas community college or technical institution. Moving up from a lead operator or team lead role on a Texas plant floor is the most common entry point into formal supervisory titles.
How much do production supervisors make in Texas?
Production supervisors in Texas earn a median of about $70,140 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $43,360 for the lowest 10% to over $115,230 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire production supervisors in Texas?
Employers hiring production supervisors in Texas right now include Tesla, Celestica, and TAS Energy, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Texas's deep concentration of food processing plants, petrochemical facilities, and aerospace manufacturers means large, well-capitalized employers with steady supervisor turnover drive the majority of openings.
Which Texas cities have the most production supervisor jobs?
Fort Worth, Houston, and Dallas consistently post the most production supervisor openings in Texas. Houston leads because of its concentration of oil and gas processing, chemical manufacturing, and industrial distribution, while Dallas-Fort Worth draws openings from aerospace suppliers, food manufacturers, and consumer goods companies operating regional distribution centers, and San Antonio benefits from a growing advanced manufacturing corridor anchored by defense contractors and automotive suppliers.
Are there remote production supervisor jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Production supervisor work is fundamentally hands-on, requiring direct oversight of equipment, personnel, and production lines on-site. About 2% of production supervisor openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those positions tend to involve administrative or quality oversight duties rather than day-to-day floor supervision. Roles at multi-site operations where one supervisor coordinates across facilities are the most likely to carry any remote component.
How can I get hired as a production supervisor in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is landing a production operator, machine operator, or quality technician role at a Texas manufacturing facility and building toward a lead or trainer position. Large Texas food processors and chemical manufacturers regularly hire for entry-level production roles and promote from within into supervisory tracks. Completing a manufacturing technology certificate at a Texas State Technical College campus or a similar regional workforce program strengthens a candidate's profile significantly. Demonstrating basic knowledge of safety protocols and shift reporting is what separates candidates at the application stage when direct supervisory experience is thin.
Where can I find and apply to production supervisor jobs in Texas?
