Job Description

Do You See Waste and Immediately Think "How Can We Improve This?" If you're the person who spots a loose process, tightens it up, and makes it safer, this role is built for you. Imagine starting your 12-hour shift with a quick safety scan—any issue you catch is reported right away to your supervisor or the safety team. Then you move to the glass line, operating pre- or post-processing equipment exactly to standard so quality stays consistent and customers stay happy.
Picture a brief alarm:
you assess, troubleshoot the line or product, and get things back on track. Between runs, you replenish raw materials—jumping on a stand-up or sit-down forklift—and verify everything is in place for the next cycle. You keep a spotless, organized area through 5S so abnormalities stand out. When a small mechanical hiccup appears, you handle the minor maintenance needed to avoid delays. Later, you help run a quick Kaizen activity or even lead it, shaving time off a changeover. During job changes, you collaborate to reconfigure the line. Through it all, you demonstrate the AGC Way—team-oriented, customer-focused, and improvement-driven. And when priorities shift, you're ready to take on other duties or projects as assigned. Core Responsibilities Own safety for yourself and others; escalate all safety concerns to your supervisor or the safety team Operate glass manufacturing equipment (pre- and post-process) in alignment with documented procedures Keep the line supplied with required raw materials Drive both stand-up and sit-down forklifts safely and efficiently Conduct scheduled quality checks per established procedures Troubleshoot production or quality issues and restore standard conditions Participate in or lead Kaizen efforts to advance continuous improvement Uphold 5
