Production Group Leader

Job Description

We are seeking a highly observant, proactive, and accountable Shift Leader to oversee daily operations and ensure seamless transitions between shifts. This role demands a boots-on-the-ground leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment, maintains high standards of workplace organization, and drives operational excellence through clear communication and decisive action.

• Communicate with the previous shift’s leader via Slack and in person to gather updates on quality and responsiveness issues.
• Review FTE roster, call‑ins, and job assignments to ensure full coverage.
• Attend and contribute to the carry‑over meeting to align on priorities and challenges.

• Ensure all team members are present, assigned, and ready to begin work.
• Monitor production lines, overhead diagnostics, and color‑coded systems to maintain flow and efficiency.
• Conduct safety observation tours and enforce workplace organization standards.
• Assign tasks, hold team members accountable, and resolve issues as they arise.
• Maintain a “head on a swivel” approach—constantly scanning for deficiencies, electrical or programming issues, and operational risks.

• Identify and define problems with precision; do not settle for surface‑level answers.
• Demonstrate managerial courage by taking initiative and driving necessary changes.
• Collaborate with group leaders to ensure alignment and support across teams.

• Provide a thorough and strategic handoff to the incoming Shift Leader.
• Set the next shift up for success with clear documentation, updates, and recommendations.
