Receiving & Shipping Support
Support inbound receiving operations including unloading, verification, and inspection of incoming parts, materials, and supplier shipments against purchase orders and ASNs
Accurately scan, label, and put-away received materials in designated warehouse or line-side locations using the WMS
Assist with outbound shipping activities including staging, packing, labeling, and loading of finished goods, returnable containers, and supplier returns
Verify shipment accuracy against bills of lading, packing lists, and shipping orders; document and escalate discrepancies
Maintain a clean, organized dock area and ensure compliance with FIFO and material handling procedures
Coordinate with logistics and production planning teams to prioritize urgent inbound deliveries and expedite critical parts to the line
Quality, Safety & Continuous Improvement
Follow all plant safety procedures, PPE requirements, and ergonomic guidelines
Identify and report damaged, incorrect, or non-conforming parts to the appropriate team
Actively participate in 5S activities to maintain a clean, organized, and efficient work area
Support Kaizen events, standard work development, and continuous improvement initiatives as directed
Minimum Qualifications

Physical Requirements
Ability to lift up to 50 lbs unassisted; team lift required for loads above 50 lbs
Prolonged standing, walking, and bending throughout the shift
Comfortable working in a climate-varying production environment (heat, noise, dust)
Ability to operate PIVs for extended periods
Work Environment & Schedule
This position works on the plant floor in an active vehicle assembly environment. Exposure to moving machinery, PIV traffic, and industrial noise is expected. The role may require rotating shifts (day, afternoon, night), weekend coverage, and overtime during launch periods, model changeovers, or high-volume production cycles.
