PEOPLE Train, develop, mentor, and hold the team accountable.

MATERIAL FLOW Coordinate receiving, staging, packaging, and shipment.

IMPROVEMENT Continuously improve layout, processes, and productivity.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

Lead and supervise daily activities of glazing fabrication personnel; establish clear priorities, expectations, and accountability. Plan daily and weekly fabrication activities based on project schedules, required-on-site dates, manpower, and material availability. Conduct production and safety huddles and communicate workload, constraints, priorities, and performance expectations. Coordinate multiple projects simultaneously and identify schedule, material, manpower, or equipment issues before they impact the field. Partner with Project Managers, Superintendents, purchasing, warehouse, and logistics teams to maintain reliable production flow. Train and mentor employees while building a professional, team-oriented, high-performance shop culture.

FABRICATION & QUALITY LEADERSHIP

Provide technical oversight for storefront, curtain wall, interior framing, entrances, doors, and related architectural aluminum systems. Oversee cutting, machining, routing, drilling, notching, assembly, gasketing, sealant application, hardware preparation, and packaging. Ensure fabrication is performed in accordance with approved shop drawings, fabrication tickets, cut lists, project specifications, manufacturer requirements, and approved dimensions. Establish quality-control checkpoints throughout fabrication; verify dimensions, machining, assembly, labeling, and completed work before shipment. Drive reduction of fabrication errors, material waste, rework, damage, and field modifications through disciplined processes and corrective action.

  PRODUCTION, MATERIAL & LOGISTICS

Maintain clear visibility into shop workload, fabrication status, upcoming work, and production capacity. Coordinate receiving, inspection, staging, storage, fabrication, packaging, loading, and shipment of project materials. Ensure aluminum, glass, doors, hardware, gaskets, sealants, and accessories are protected, organized, and staged by project and installation sequence. Promptly identify and communicate damaged, incorrect, or missing materials and help drive resolution. Coordinate completed material releases to support field installation schedules and minimize unnecessary handling.

SAFETY, EQUIPMENT & FACILITY

Lead a strong safety culture, enforce company policies and PPE requirements, and immediately correct unsafe conditions. Ensure employees are trained and authorized to safely operate fabrication equipment, forklifts, material-handling equipment, and shop tools. Oversee proper use and readiness of saws, CNC equipment, routers, drill presses, punches, crimping equipment, glass-handling equipment, compressors, and related tools. Support preventative maintenance, equipment repairs, housekeeping, storage standards, and an organized professional facility.

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

Evaluate production throughput, labor efficiency, material flow, equipment utilization, shop layout, sequencing, waste, rework, and packaging methods. Develop repeatable fabrication standards and best practices that improve safety, quality, productivity, and consistency. Work with Operations leadership to establish measurable shop goals and track performance against those expectations.

QUALIFICATIONS

5+ years of commercial glass and glazing experience preferred. Previous glazing fabrication shop leadership, foreman, lead fabricator, or superintendent experience strongly preferred. Strong working knowledge of commercial storefront, curtain wall, entrances, doors, and architectural aluminum systems. Ability to read and interpret architectural drawings, glazing shop drawings, fabrication drawings, cut lists, and specifications. Strong understanding of measurements, tolerances, fabrication requirements, quality control, and safe shop operations. Demonstrated leadership, communication, planning, organization, problem-solving, and employee-development skills. Basic computer skills and willingness to utilize digital production tracking and project-management tools.
