Summary
I'm a hardworking machine operator well-versed in keeping components running at peak levels to produce high-quality products.
I'm comfortable working alone or with team members to identify and resolve defects. I strongly approach to tackling maintenance and inspection tasks. Also a diligent machine operator with 7 years of hands-on experience operating, monitoring and troubleshooting assigned machines. I get the job done, my work ethic is very strong. Hardworking and reliable, and easy going. Train, report, and communicate to incoming shifts and new employees for updates. Safety is always key.
