• Manage team performance: coaching, one‑on‑ones, performance documentation (PIPs, letters of expectation), and development of leads/operators
• Lead daily tier meetings/floor walks and communicate production status, risks, and blockers to Operations leadership
• Drive continuous improvement and lean initiatives to increase throughput and reduce changeover time on high‑mix, configurable lines

• Ensure the floor can absorb rapid configuration changeovers driven by build‑to‑order demand and high SKU variation
• Manage attendance, timekeeping, and adherence to labor and workplace policies
• Escalate material, equipment, or staffing constraints that put schedule attainment at risk
