Full Job Description

Title: 2nd Shift Fabrication Group Lead

Location: Sturtevant, WI

This is a hands‑on leadership role that blends advanced operation of either Brake Press or Laser/Turret equipment with team leadership on 2nd shift. The Group Lead sets the tone for safety, quality, throughput, and accountability—coaching a team of approximately seven while partnering closely with the Shift Supervisor. Success requires someone who can run the work, develop people, and improve the process.

Key Responsibilities:

Leadership & Team Operations

· Assign work, balance staffing across cells, and align resources to meet daily work order priorities and output goals.

· Coach individual productivity, quality, and work habits; model safe, disciplined, and standard‑driven behaviors.

· Provide first‑response technical support to the team; escalate recurring issues and performance trends to the Supervisor.

· Coordinate onboarding, new‑hire training, and cross‑training to build a multi‑skilled team.

Hands‑On Production

· Brake Press Focus: Set up and operate CNC brake press equipment to form metal components to print and quality standards; verify parts to print and perform peer checks.

· Laser/Turret Focus: Set up and operate laser/turret equipment (e.g., EMLK/Apelio); perform nozzle alignment, focus lens cleaning, height calibration, and automated sheet loader setup; verify operator quality and record process verification in ERP.

· Flex as needed to adjacent fabrication operations (inserting, deburring/shakeout, hardware insertion, fabrication assembly, welding) to keep flow moving.

Safety, Quality & Compliance

· Audit and enforce quality processes and policies; maintain an organized, 5S‑compliant work area.

· Ensure adherence to safety policies and correct at‑risk behaviors in the moment.

· Verify materials and part conformance using drawings and measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, pin/height gauges).

Throughput & Continuous Improvement

· Manage daily/weekly direct labor hours to hit output requirements; remove bottlenecks and escalate constraints.

· Lead or participate in continuous improvement initiatives (standard work, changeover reduction, visual management, skills matrices).

· Sustain improvements by documenting standards and coaching to them.

· Ability to read mechanical drawings (standard/metric) and apply basic math for dimensions and measurements.

· Experience leading small teams or serving as a go‑to operator (Group Lead, Cell Lead, or equivalent).

· Working knowledge of measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, pin and height gauges) and basic ERP transactions.
