Perform first-piece and in-process inspections utilizing precision measuring instruments.
Assist with machine setup, tooling changes, minor programming adjustments, and troubleshooting.
Maintain accurate production, quality, and maintenance documentation.
Support cross-functional manufacturing operations as production requirements evolve.

Ability to safely wear required PPE including safety glasses, hearing protection, gloves, welding helmets, and steel-toe footwear.

Career Growth Opportunity

This role is designed for an individual who wants to help build and shape a growing manufacturing operation. As the Lafayette facility expands, this position may evolve into a formal leadership role with increased responsibility for team development, production oversight, and operational performance.
