  Teach employees the proper ways of building a quality A5 aircraft. Ensure timely delivery of aircraft. Using programs like Excel and Google Docs, track the daily output of the team and delegate high priority tasks for the day. Build interpersonal relationships with subordinates, learning the difference between leading and influencing. Inspire workers to perform at their best and motivate them to pursue promotions.Created 2 "splash molds" using fiberglass to create a trim template for the technicians to use. These tools reduced the install time of the operation by 3 hours allowing technicians to easily trim without the risk of trimming by eye and allowed them to create a uniform product every time without any errorsUtilized Lean methods by holding 7 different Kaizen events. These time studies helped the Manufacturing Engineers update their work instructions, so technicians weren't taking any extra steps to complete operations. Those wastes were then worked on and changes were implemented to give the techs the tools necessary to no longer leave the station for anything.Analyzed and determined the root causes of several re-occurring problems by taking measurements and verifying tolerances using computer programs such as creo 3d modeling and various engineering drawings. The troubleshooting, being lengthy in nature, determined the non-conformances and allowed us to relay the information to the engineers who would then either re-design, or allow us to rework the parts to bring them up to spec.Reworked inventory items in bulk by using drill presses, belt sanders, tap and die kits, reamers, gauge pins and grinders. An example of a reworked item is a water rudder puck that had incorrect threads machined into it from the vendor. The rework consisted of taking the puck to a drill press, enlarging the diameter of the holes to remove existing threads, and tapping the holes with the new thread pitch Show less Study, read, and understand the schematic diagrams, blueprints, product manuals, process documents, and gather information regarding its parts, fixtures, tools, etc. Set up, arrange, and operate equipment as per the specifications and instructions from the supervisor.
