• Pull and identify parts from inventory according to bills of material and job requirements.

• Manage time and resources effectively to meet deadlines and production schedules.
• Apply sound judgment in problem solving and decision making related to material flow, inventory discrepancies, and prioritization.
• Communicate clearly and effectively with supervisors, production staff, and team members regarding material status, issues, and priorities.
