Focus: Ensuring production processes, guaranteeing quality and supporting stable mass production
Our attitude
We work honestly, clearly and with respect – both as a team and in our daily interactions.
Every contribution counts, and we approach each other on an equal footing with respect and reliability.
Their mission
As a shift supervisor, you work together with the shift leader to ensure that our injection molding processes run stably and reliably.
They set up and commission our plastic injection molding machines, perform tool changes, and understand the interplay of Machine, tool, material and process. In particular, you will be looking at how different plastics and material properties affect the injection molding process and the quality of our components.
You work closely with the shift leader and the machine operators in your team. When deviations occur, you identify the root causes and contribute to continuously improving quality, productivity, and process reliability.
You do not need to know our specific machines, tools, materials and processes from day one. Your technical knowledge of plastic injection molding and your technical understanding are crucial. We provide you with structured training in everything KOMOS-specific and support you during your initial training.
Your tasks
- Preparing and setting up our plastic injection molding machines
- Performing tool changes and assisting with the subsequent start of production
- Setting and optimizing the required process parameters
- Taking into account the respective plastics and material properties when setting up the processes
- Ensuring stable production processes and consistent part quality
- Monitoring of ongoing production and early detection of process deviations
- Analysis of malfunctions, error patterns, and increased incidence of defects, as well as initiation of appropriate measures
- Support for machine operators in technical and process-related questions
- Conducting and ensuring the planned quality checks
- Cooperation with shift leaders, quality, toolmaking, and maintenance in the event of disruptions and improvements
- Active participation in a complete shift handover through transparent communication of machine status, deviations, disruptions, and open actions
- Consistent use of the digital process card, the KOMOS app, and ERP Infra throughout the production process
- Complete and timely documentation of relevant production, quality, and fault data
- Participation in the continuous improvement and standardization of our production processes
What makes you stand out
- You have a good technical understanding and want to understand why a process works or why it deviates
- They don’t just think in terms of machine parameters; they also take into account the tool and material used.
- They work carefully, in a structured manner, and with a focus on quality
- They recognize deviations and proceed in a solution-oriented manner based on the causes.
- They take responsibility for their tasks and address problems early on
- They work in conjunction with shift supervisors and machine operators on a binding basis
- They are open to developing existing knowledge and learning about new technologies
- They are ready to work in shifts
You bring expertise to the table
- Technical training, ideally in the field of plastics and rubber technology, process mechanics, or a comparable qualification
- Alternatively, comparable professional qualifications acquired through relevant work experience
- Practical experience in plastic injection molding and/or in setting up injection molding machines
- Knowledge of plastics and material properties, as well as their influence on the injection molding process
- Technical understanding of the interaction between machine, tool, material and process
- Basic understanding of process parameters, quality, and typical error patterns in injection molding
- Commitment to the consistent use of ERP infrastructure, KOMOS app and digital process information
You do not need to already know about every one of our machines, tools, or types of material. Your professional background, technical understanding, and willingness to learn are crucial. We structure your training in our specific systems, tools, materials, processes, and digital systems.
How we work
Our working day is characterized by clear processes, stable workflows, and a high level of commitment. Quality, process reliability and reliability.
We work in our plastic production Shift leader, operator and machine operator as a team Together. Each person takes responsibility within their role for ensuring that information is shared early, deviations are made visible, and problems are resolved sustainably.
Reliability, commitment, and a focus on performance characterize our daily operations. We work in a solution- and resource-oriented manner, take responsibility for results, and consistently implement what has been agreed upon.
