Job Description
This job opportunity is offered by a well-established manufacturing company specializing in production and assembly processes, located in Everett, Washington. The company operates within the production domain, focusing on manufacturing assembly and repair, particularly in assembly lines. It values experienced professionals who can lead, guide, and collaborate efficiently to maintain high standards of product quality and operational safety. The company prides itself on fostering a positive work environment, promoting teamwork, and ensuring customer satisfaction by meeting timelines and quality benchmarks. The role of Fabrication Assembler Lead is a permanent full-time position, offering an annual salary range of $55,410 to $87,070, making it a competitive choice for experienced manufacturing professionals.
The Fabrication Assembler Lead is a senior-level position responsible for overseeing several manufacturing departments, including potting and bonding, electrical assembly, and finishing work. This role is critical in teaching, guiding, and assisting lower-level technicians to ensure smooth daily operations and adherence to production objectives. The lead not only supervises and organizes employees but also plans, assists, and directs work, providing input during employee performance evaluations. This role requires a proactive approach to resolving technical work issues and leading by example with positive, influential, and collaborative communications while maintaining strict safety standards.
Key aspects of the role include organizing employees to complete production unit preparation, promoting positive communication among co-workers, and overseeing daily departmental functions. The Fabrication Assembler Lead assists in creating work schedules, coordinates efforts across departments to ensure timely product completion, and maintains an adequate supply of tools and hardware. Additionally, this role involves planning the layout of the work area, enforcing OSHA and company safety regulations, lifting and positioning production units safely, and maintaining cleanliness and safety on the manufacturing floor. The lead must remain adaptable, ready to work across different production areas as needed, and conduct final quality checks before products progress to the quality assurance phase.
The company actively supports employee growth by expecting the lead to teach others how to interpret engineering drawings, use measuring tools like tape measures and calipers, and handle various pneumatic and hand tools properly. There is a strong emphasis on self-inspection, reporting, and compliance with Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). Communication skills are essential, including report writing and meeting management. The company also requires that the Fabrication Assembler Lead meets or exceeds current training requirements and is willing to assist in other manufacturing areas as directed by supervisors or managers. While not mandatory, leadership experience and familiarity with Zodiac/Safran manufacturing environments are viewed as advantageous.
Overall, this role is well-suited for a professional with over five years of manufacturing experience, possessing strong technical skills, team leadership capabilities, and a commitment to quality and safety. The company offers a dynamic work environment in a notable North American manufacturing site, providing opportunities for career advancement and competitive compensation.
