• Team Development: Onboard, train, and mentor operators; cultivate cross-training, set clear performance metrics, and foster open communication.
  

• Operational Excellence: Oversee process flow, pinpoint operational bottlenecks, monitor equipment reliability, and drive continuous efficiency improvements.
  

• Safety & Quality Standards: Enforce rigorous OSHA standards, conduct proactive hazard audits, and serve as the frontline quality gatekeeper for all finished goods.

• 3+ years of progressive supervisory or team-lead experience in an industrial manufacturing setting.
