Summary
In the past 8 years at Autocar I have worked various roles with Production, Quality, Accounting, Engineering and Project management Teams. Starting in Service Parts engineering doing a breakdown of the trucks in AXIS for Aftermarket to ensure customers were ordering the right parts. In my planner role I was responsible for purchasing, planning and delivery of Materials for production needs as well as working closely with the suppliers for on time delivery and the Quality of the parts and sending prints for new parts and components when a revision or change would be made by Engineering. For the past 2 years I have been a production supervisor along with continuing to help the Planning and Engineering teams. I strongly believe in Team Work and feel that with that you can accomplish anything you set out to Achieve.
