Production Supervisor - Robotics Assembly

Job description

Job responsibilities

• Lead, schedule and develop a team of production technicians to hit daily and weekly build targets
• Own line performance: throughput, first-pass yield, on-time delivery and labor efficiency
• Run daily start-up meetings, track KPIs, and escalate risks early
• Drive root cause and corrective action on build and test failures with Production Engineering
• Create and maintain work instructions, standard work and visual management
• Bring engineering changes (ECOs) onto the line on schedule without disrupting output
• Enforce safety, ESD and 5S standards, plus traceability in our MES (ION)
• Hire, cross-train and coach technicians, and build future leads

Job requirements

• 3+ years supervising technicians in electromechanical assembly (robotics, automation or capital equipment preferred)
• Hands-on with mechanical assembly, cable harnesses, and basic electrical troubleshooting and test; willing to jump in on the line alongside the team
• A track record of improving a line, not just running one, and building processes where none exist yet
• A quality-first mindset: you protect first-pass yield and will stop the line when something is wrong
• Working knowledge of Lean methods and structured problem solving (5 Whys, fishbone, 8D)
• Comfort with an MES/ERP and managing by data
• A people developer who gives direct feedback and grows their team
• Clear communicator who works well with Engineering and Supply Chain and stays calm under pressure
