Squad Commander/Mechanical Assembler
• Led a squad to achieve highest performance metrics within entire company.• Ranked as the top 1 elite trainee out of a cohort of 300 trainees.• Supported a struggling squad member during a 20km march with 88-pound gear by physically assisting them through the toughest sections, contributing to our squad’s top ranking for teamwork.• Gained valuable experience at a Tier 1 vender, supplying products to major international clients like Hyundai and Doosan Bobcat, while refining my understanding of global supply chain operations.• Increased cabin production productivity by 25% after working with the team leader to adjust a workflow that hadn’t been updated in over ten years, switching the assembly order from A-B-C-D to A-C-B-D.• Applied “effective communication” techniques from my business communication class to collaborate with the head of inventory management, enabling us to report materials early rather than basing orders on monthly production, which eliminated work-in-process cabins by the next quarter.• Gained experience training new recruits on assembly techniques and safety protocols, helping them integrate smoothly into the team.• Reduced defect rates significantly by updating a quality control process that hadn’t been changed in years, dramatically decreasing the need for the team leader and head department to handle issues externally from an average of three times per month to rarely visiting.
