•    Provide immediate technical containment for shop-floor issues: define and document temporary fixes, locate alternate tooling/fixtures, and verify fit/function to prevent production stoppage.
•    Use CAPP II to launch updated travelers, capture in-process verifications, and record redline-driven deviations or temporary approvals.
•    Coach and audit 2nd-shift operators/technicians on correct use of redline information and ensure traceability of temporary changes.

•    Assembly experience, composite and metallic structure.
•    Metal forming and processing.
