Fiber Reinforced Polymer(FRP) Production Supervisor

The role of FRP Supervisor involves overseeing the fabrication, trimming, finishing, and installation of FRP components utilized in Electric Vehicles (EVs) like golf carts. As the FRP Supervisor, your responsibilities will include managing the FRP team, ensuring part quality, streamlining production processes, and collaborating with design and assembly departments for seamless integration. You will be in charge of supervising daily FRP operations encompassing mold preparation, lay-up, curing, demolding, trimming, and surface finishing. It is crucial to guarantee that FRP parts adhere to design specifications, strength requirements, and surface finish standards. Managing the inventory of resins, catalysts, glass fiber, gel coats, and tools will also fall under your purview. Furthermore, implementing quality checks at every stage of FRP production, coordinating with design and assembly teams to ensure accurate panel fitment on vehicles, and maintaining molds in a clean, stored, and correctly handled manner are key aspects of this role. You will also be responsible for training and guiding the FRP team on safety, efficiency, and workmanship practices, in addition to maintaining a safe and organized work environment with proper ventilation and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) usage. Your skillset should encompass a strong understanding of FRP processes such as hand lay-up, curing cycles, etc., as well as knowledge of mold handling, fiberglass materials, resins, and catalysts. Proficiency in reading and interpreting basic technical drawings or panel designs is essential, along with team management, problem-solving, and process optimization skills. Familiarity with surface preparation, sanding, and gel coat application, coupled with a robust awareness of health and safety practices in FRP work, are also required. Ideally, you should hold an ITI/Diploma in Mechanical or Automobile engineering, along with a minimum of 3-6 years of hands-on experience in FRP component manufacturing or composite fabrication. Prior supervisory experience in FRP or composite fabrication would be advantageous for this role. This is a full-time position that requires in-person work at the designated location.,
