Pure Lead Products Quality / Engineering Manager

Lake Placid, Florida April 2020 to Present

My ability to be a cross functional team leader is one of my greatest assets. I excel at not only manufacturing parts, but also at understanding the importance of the consistent quality of that part. Processing a part through manufacturing with the mind set of upstream quality concerns is something that I consider to be a crucial aspect of my job. Once an order is received from my sales team, I pride myself in my ability to produce the part from start to finish and challenge myself to make it as efficiently as possible while still displaying superior quality over other competitors. I routinely assist sales in their quoting process to the customer, so that our customer gets the product they are expecting.
