Build, Improve, Repeat — Lead Our Metal Forming Operations

Imagine starting your shift by aligning a cross-functional team around clear priorities : metal cutting queued, stamping presses set, weld cells staffed, assembly lines balanced, and materials replenished. You measure progress, remove obstacles, and ensure every finished part makes it cleanly into inventory—safe, on spec, and on time.

• Provide day-to-day leadership across shifts to hit production goals while protecting quality and safety.
• Translate plans into action : assign work, set priorities, and monitor performance throughout the day.
• Maintain accurate records by entering labor, scrap, and SPC data into the labor reporting system.
• Coordinate material replenishment and the movement of finished goods into inventory.
• Communicate production results and issues to management; surface risks and propose solutions.
• Champion company standards, policies, and initiatives in every area of the shop.
• Strengthen processes by analyzing operating practices, record-keeping systems, and controls to help create and sustain procedures.
• Use Lean Manufacturing tools to drive continuous improvement and increase productivity.
