Work History

Lead Production Technician

SpaceX
01.2019 - Current
  • Ability to respond quickly to production line challenges like part shortages or defects, minimizing downtime and keeping operations running smoothly
  • The ability to ensure that parts inventory is managed effectively, preventing production downtime. Have good understanding of parts usage and forecasting to maintain an optimal inventory that supports uninterrupted production.
  • Capable of collaborating with engineering to enhance processes and increase production rate. Identifying inefficiencies, implementing changes, and testing new solutions to boost productivity.
  • Lead a team of 8+ through new processes, while prioritizing safety standards. Excellent at training staff, setting expectations, and ensuring compliance with safety protocols.
  • Delivering production goals even with fewer staff, which involves optimizing work processes, improving efficiency, or utilizing automation to make up for the reduced headcount.
  • The ability to use Grafana to design and implement interactive dashboards and charts that track production metrics, targets, and parts inventory in real time.
  • Designing the layout of part storage areas (e.g., shelves, bins, or racks) in a way that minimizes the time spent searching for parts. This includes organizing parts by frequency of use, size, type, or production sequence to ensure quick access.
