Job Description

About the role

Step into a senior, shop-floor role where you wire, assemble, and bring plate products to life through meticulous end-of-line testing and troubleshooting. As a hands-on leader and mentor, you embody BAC’s values— Earning Trust, Embracing Responsibility, Showing Courage, and Driving Innovation —while guiding junior mechanics and influencing daily outcomes. Around here, our north star is simple: doing the right thing in the right way .

A day in the life

• Start with safety: own it personally and for the team; follow all rules and use proper PPE.
• Rotate through all NEXUS stations, particularly Assembly and Wiring, to meet build schedules.
• Apply standard work to build to spec—and interpret those standards for junior mechanics.
• Wire high-voltage (3-phase/480V) and low-voltage controls from schematics; install motors and controls and verify proper operation.
• Perform Hi-Pot (dielectric) testing and complete end-of-line testing; troubleshoot plate products to root cause.
• Operate equipment efficiently to maximize productivity and quality; meet or exceed shift production goals.
• Complete basic preventive maintenance and sign off the primary maintenance procedure checklist daily and weekly.
• Uphold quality and process standards rigorously; document processes for knowledge capture and training.
• Lead a small group of junior assemblers; train and develop teammates toward technical and professional growth.
• Track, update, and post departmental metrics; complete accurate paperwork and online data entry.
• Practice and sustain 5S; participate in continuous improvement initiatives and safety improvements.
• Champion sustainability: reduce environmental impact, minimize waste, maximize recycling, and conserve energy and water.
• Support a culture of innovation—turn original ideas into better processes, methods, systems, or services.
• Flex across multiple workstations and adapt to change; perform other duties as requested.

Scope and collaboration

You report to the Team Leader and operate as a subject matter expert and influencer. You’ll provide hands-on leadership, mentor junior assemblers, and be ready to step into department leadership roles as needed. Your expertise may be tapped for participation on regional project teams and cross-functional initiatives supporting plant objectives.

What you bring

• Proven small-team leadership and the communication skills—written and verbal—to collaborate with supervisors, customers, and co-workers professionally and clearly.
• Ability to read and interpret machine/mechanical/electrical blueprints, technical specifications, and electrical/electronic circuit diagrams and schematics.
• Competence in Hi-Pot testing, maintenance and troubleshooting techniques, and root-cause support using continuous improvement tools.
• Demonstrated skill installing motors and controls; wiring both high-voltage 3-phase/480V and low-voltage control circuits from schematics.
• Strong math (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractional computations, fraction-to-decimal conversions) and ability to use measuring tools (tape measure, micrometer, protractor).
• Thorough knowledge of machine-operation hazards and safety-sensitive areas across the department and plant; unwavering commitment to safety.
• High level of product knowledge across BAC models and parts; ability to locate instructions/forms on the LAN or other databases.
• Excel proficiency to update data and generate metrics; comfortable posting and communicating metrics.
• Flexibility to work across stations and adapt quickly; experience working on cross-functional teams.

Working conditions and schedule

• Lift up to 50 lbs; stand up to 80% of the time; frequent walking, reaching, bending, stooping, and sitting.
• Fine hand manipulation and strong hand–eye coordination for control adjustments and wiring work.
• Any of three shifts; typically 40 hours per week with some weekend overtime expected.
• Variable temperatures—both within the plant and ambient outdoor conditions.
