    Communicate production metrics, issues, and shift handoffs clearly

    Maintain clean, organized, and audit-ready work areas per GMP standards

    Participate in continuous improvement initiatives related to safety, quality, and efficiency

    Train and support new or developing operators

    Serve as a safety leader—stop production when a quality or safety concern is identified
