Who You Are (Competencies)

  • Accountability: You take ownership of production targets and learn from errors to improve future runs.
  • Mechanical Aptitude: You have a "root cause" mentality and want to understand how your machine works.
  • Display Agility: You can pivot between tasks and shifts as production priorities change.
  • Team Before Self: You are willing to step outside your assigned duties to help a coworker meet a site goal.

Qualifications

  • High school diploma or GED.
  • 1–2 years of related experience in a production environment.
  • Strong mechanical skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and stand for the duration of a shift.
