Position Overview The Manufacturing Team Leader will work within the production operators and the BIW team for the purpose of achieving aligned results. The Production Team Leader is responsible for leading and coordinating a team of operators within BIW automated cells, ensuring safe operations, strict quality compliance, and stable production flow. The role drives throughput performance (JPH/OEE) by eliminating losses, enforcing standard work, and enabling rapid response to abnormalities while fostering a zero-defect and zero-incident culture. Key Responsibilities Safety Leadership & Compliance (Highest Priority) •    Lead and enforce all EHS regulations, robotic cell safety standards, and safe work practices. •    Ensure no bypass of safety systems (light curtains, scanners, interlocks, guarding). •    Conduct pre-shift safety audits and verify workstation readiness. •    Lead safety talks (toolbox meetings) and reinforce safety behaviors. •    Ensure proper use of PPE and ergonomic practices. •    Investigate and report incidents, near misses, and unsafe conditions, applying corrective actions. •    Empower team members to follow stop-call-wait principle for unsafe conditions. Production Management & Throughput Optimization •    Manage team performance to achieve production targets (JPH) aligned with takt time. •    Monitor and improve OEE drivers: Availability (downtime reduction), Performance (cycle adherence), Quality (first-time quality) •    Balance workloads across stations to avoid bottlenecks, starvation, or blocking. •    Ensure proper execution of standard work at each station. •    Monitor real-time production flow using Andon systems and dashboards. •    Lead recovery plans during downtime and coordinate with Maintenance and Engineering. •    Support and oversee changeovers ensuring minimal impact on production. Quality Assurance & Compliance •    Ensure adherence to control plans, work instructions, and quality alerts. •    Verify operators are performing in-process inspections correctly. •    Lead containment actions for defects (segregation, traceability, escalation). •    Drive first-time quality (FTQ) and reduce rework/scrap. •    Participate in QRQC (Quick Response Quality Control) and root cause analysis. •    Ensure compliance with traceability standards (part labels, lot control, sequencing). People Management & Leadership •    Lead, coach, and develop production team members. •    Conduct daily briefings (SPEQDC: Safety, People, Environment, Quality, Delivery, Cost). •    Assign tasks and ensure proper station coverage. •
