Job Summary
Copper (Bus) Bar Fabrication Process Expert leverages deep, hands-on experience to share knowledge, improve fabrication processes, and proactively identify operational risks and potential solutions in copper bus bar and related fabrication activities. This role focuses on strengthening internal capabilities by transferring expertise, improving consistency, and helping teams avoid common and costly fabrication pitfalls, while also providing advisory expertise and support for implementing new or updated processes (including epoxy coating, powder coating, and plating). Engagement is advisory in nature; the expert provides recommendations and guidance while execution and decision-making remain with site leadership and functional owners.Job Description
Process Improvement & Best Practices
- Evaluate existing copper bus bar fabrication and finishing processes and recommend practical improvements
- Share proven fabrication methodologies that improve repeatability, quality, safety, and efficiency
- Identify process variation, inefficiencies, and unnecessary complexity before they become production issues
- Support the development of standardized work, process flows, and best-practice guidelines
- Provide advisory consulting on the implementation of new or revised finishing processes (e.g., epoxy coating, powder coating, and plating), including process definition input, vendor alignment guidance, and shop-floor rollout recommendations (execution owned by site teams)
Identifying Pitfalls & Risk Mitigation
- Proactively identify common fabrication, finishing, and subcontracting pitfalls based on prior experience
- Educate teams on high-risk features such as tolerance stack-ups, forming limitations, sequencing errors, and handling damage
- Help teams recognize early warning signs of quality or throughput issues
- Provide insight into “lessons learned” from past successes and failures to prevent repeat issues
- Training & Knowledge Transfer
- Advise leadership and key personnel (e.g., supervisors, value-stream leads, lead operators, and quality leads) to help develop copper bus bar fabrication understanding, shop-floor awareness, and key process constraints so they can effectively lead, troubleshoot, and reinforce standards
- Translate complex fabrication concepts into practical, easy-to-understand guidance
- Support leadership and key personnel by providing input to onboarding and upskilling plans for employees involved in copper fabrication or subcontracted operations, ensuring training is consistent and aligned to standardized work (with ownership remaining with functional leaders)
- Drawing & Manufacturability Education
- Review drawings and specifications with teams to explain manufacturability concerns and risk areas
- Guide teams in recognizing ambiguous callouts or design choices that can create downstream issues
- Promote clear communication between internal teams and external fabrication partners
