  • \n
  • Track key production metrics such as output, scrap, downtime, and productivity.
  • \n
  • Encourage daily 3S and sustained improvement of task flow, organization, and maintenance activities.
  • \n
\n
Qualifications:
    \n
  • \n Bachelor's degree in Manufacturing, Industrial, or Mechanical Engineering, OR
