YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

THE WHAT You work directly in production and ensure parts are manufactured precisely and reliably. You operate machines, keep processes running, and make sure work is completed carefully, consistently, and according to defined standards.

THE WHY To end COPV failure in spaceflight.

Production defines performance. If processes are unstable, nothing works.

You ensure:

  • Parts are manufactured precisely and reliably
  • Production processes run safely and consistently
  • Quality standards and defined processes are followed

Your tasks in detail and by priority

→ High Performance: Work precisely and consistently

Clean, grind, assemble, and prepare parts according to defined processes.

→ Accountability: Take ownership of quality and results

Follow structured workflows, document work steps, and maintain a clean workspace.

→ Candor: Identify and communicate issues openly

Work closely with production and quality, identify issues, and suggest improvements.

→ Togetherness: Solve problems together and support the team

Contribute to improving processes and production performance with initiative and curiosity.

→ Playfulness: Stay curious and find better ways to get things done
