  • Help maintain high workmanship and quality standards for aerospace and high-reliability PCB manufacturing
  • Assist with troubleshooting production and process issues
  • Support workflow improvements and manufacturing efficiency initiatives
  • Help mentor and guide operators on department procedures and expectations
  • Perform inspections to verify product quality and compliance
