Operations Leader - Dimensional Inspection & Material Handling

Proven to Perform.

From the edges of space to the bottoms of ocean, our materials are proven to perform -- and so is our team. We're hiring high performers as proven as our products. Join us.

ATI is seeking an Operations Leader to lead two connected functions within our Cudahy Forged Products operation: dimensional/in-process inspection and internal material handling. This hands-on leader will help ensure forgings meet requirements before moving downstream while keeping material flowing throughout the plant.

The role is a hand-on leader, and requires a visible plant-floor presence, strong prioritization, and sound technical judgment.

• Lead inspection of forgings during the manufacturing process and supports decisions for downstream processing or rework.
• Ensure inspectors have the resources needed to inspect parts in the forging operation and after parts cool.
• Use and support dimensional/metrology tools such as calipers, height gauges, CMMs, and laser/3D scanning.
• Review drawings and requirements, select appropriate inspection methods, and communicate issues supporting corrective action.

• Lead internal trucking/material handling that moves forgings and other material throughout the plant.
• Coordinate inbound/outbound lanes, respond to production requests, and prioritize hot or time-sensitive moves.
• Monitor multiple plant areas, allocate manpower, and maintain uninterrupted material flow.

• Lead, coach, and train hourly employees while maintaining accountability for safety, quality, productivity, attendance, and performance.
• Manage required safety activities, including crane and mobile-equipment inspections, and support applicable union contract requirements.
• Lead continuous improvement and problem solving to improve safety, quality, flow, productivity, and internal customer service.

• Monday-Friday salaried leadership role, generally 6:30 AM-3:30 PM.
• Highly mobile position; approximately 60% plant-floor activity and 40% office/administrative work.
• Onsite role requiring frequent walking throughout a large manufacturing facility.
• Because internal trucking supports multiple shifts, occasional weekend or off-shift calls may be required.

• Associate degree or higher in a technical or related field; relevant areas may include inspection, metrology, machining, CAD/computer-aided drafting, or a comparable discipline.
• 3+ years of general supervisory experience, with knowledge of applicable labor contract provisions and accident prevention fundamentals.

• Prior machining or prior dimensional inspection methods, techniques, equipment, with blueprint reading capabilities in a manufacturing environment.

• Excellent oral, written, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Excellent organization and ability to multi-task and prioritize competing demands.
• Strong mechanical aptitude and technical judgment related to dimensional inspection and manufacturing processes.
• Ability to lead effectively on the plant floor and make sound decisions in a fast-paced environment.
