Job description

Location: Sussex, WI

What your day looks like

You open the ETO electrical cell and lead a quick Gemba huddle. Priorities are set, task rotations are confirmed, and safety plus 5S standards are clear. You spend part of the morning hands‑on—wiring panels, installing components, and double‑checking against schematics and codes. A teammate flags an electrical fault; you diagnose it, coach through the fix, and capture the lesson for future training. After lunch, you sync with the Supervisor, Production Manager, and adjacent cells to keep on‑time delivery on track. An urgent order comes in—you expedite, flex support across departments, and partner with Facilities for in‑house wiring. Before close, you audit 5S, update the board, and plan tomorrow’s improvements.

What you will do

• Lead by example in ETO electrical assembly: perform panel wiring and component installs in accordance with applicable electrical standards and codes.
• Drive task rotation within the department and facilitate daily Gemba board discussions.
• Coordinate with the Supervisor, Production Manager, other team leads, and manufacturing cells to achieve on‑time delivery targets.
• Serve as primary trainer for all ETO electrical assembly employees; assess individual skill gaps and create development plans.
• Troubleshoot and resolve electrical issues to restore quality and flow.
• Champion daily and weekly 5S goals; keep the team aligned and accountable.
• Expedite orders and flex to assist other departments as demand shifts.
• Work safely at all times to maintain an incident‑free environment for yourself and your team.
• Partner with the Facilities team on in‑house wiring and electrical projects.
• Perform related duties as assigned, including flexing into mechanical departments when needed.

What you bring

• Proficiency with electrical tools and equipment (power tools, test instruments, and hand tools).
• Solid understanding of safety regulations and industry best practices.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, electrical prints, and mechanical blueprints.
• Strong electrical and mechanical aptitude; knowledge of high- and low-voltage wiring and gate logic.
• Working knowledge of proper ESD handling procedures.
• Clear communication, coaching mindset, and confident team leadership.
• Abstract/strategic thinking to solve undefined or ambiguous problems.
• Agility to reprioritize in response to changing work demands.
• Analytical, organized, and detail-oriented; basic computer literacy.

Required qualifications

• Journeyman Electrician Card with 3+ years’ experience, or 10+ years as an industrial electrician.
• High school diploma or equivalent.
• Previous lead experience preferred.
• Experience with Epicor ERP is a plus.
• Experience with SolidWorks and FactoryTalk is a plus.
• Able to safely lift/lower/push/pull up to 40 lbs.; comfortable with physically demanding work (lifting, climbing, varied environments).
