About the role

  • Own projects end to end, from figuring out the problem to getting it fixed
  • Dig into the numbers behind the operation, like capacity, labor hours, cost per unit, and on-time shipping, and use them to make the case for what we do next
  • Work with shift leads, quality, receiving, and shipping to hit our daily order targets
  • Step in wherever the operation needs you, on the floor or in the office
  • Follow every SOP, and tell us when one is broken so we can fix it
