Proven experience writing work instructions and SOPs that people follow.

Familiarity with Lean/Six Sigma, CAD, and Microsoft Office Suite.

Excellent communication skills and a track record of cross‑team collaboration.

Reliable transportation and flexibility for occasional overtime when needed.

Who Thrives Here

Love building processes and structure from scratch.

Energetic about problem‑solving and hands‑on work.

Take initiative instead of waiting for direction.

Can shift gears fast and stay calm under pressure.
