This role will be around 50% computer/spreadsheet based. There will be some ambiguity involved. They will be inspecting full kits of products that will be going to the floor for specific work orders. Quickly identifying what an assembly is based on labels/etc. Being able to work in an ambiguous environment as they are expecting a lot of change and a lot of change quickly, especially in the earlier stages. They could be working on a process and in 3 days completely pivot and change to something new so someone who is adaptable to change Degree is flexible if they have relevant exp that would work but education is always a preference to be elevated downstream Ultimately this role will coordinate actual materials being ordered by production teams, working with engineers, planners, warehouse to ensure a seamless flow from doc to flow, owning all and everything in between.
