Company Description JST Castings & Solutions is a Coimbatore-based manufacturer of Aluminium Die Casting components with in-house machining capabilities serving automotive, industrial, and engineering sectors. We are driven by quality, precision, and on-time delivery, backed by strong technical expertise and modern infrastructure. Role Purpose To lead and supervise aluminium die casting unit production lines, ensuring smooth daily operations, achievement of production targets, improvement in yield, and adherence to quality and safety standards. The role focuses on hands-on leadership, driving shift-level performance, and ensuring effective utilization of machines, dies, and manpower. Key Responsibilities 1. Production & Yield Execute daily production plans as per schedules Monitor machine cycles, shot weight, and process parameters to maximize yield. Ensure optimum utilization of die casting machines, furnaces, and manpower. Track material usage and minimize rejection, rework, and metal loss. 2. Process & Quality Control Conduct in-process quality checks and maintain SPC records. Identify and escalate casting defects (porosity, shrinkage, cold shut, flash, etc.). Support tool trials and provide feedback for die modifications. Drive corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) in coordination with Quality & Tool Room. 3. Team Supervision Supervise supervisors, technicians, and operators across shifts. Ensure skill-based allocation of manpower for smooth running of machines. Train shop floor teams on cycle discipline, safety, and 5S practices. 4. Efficiency & Cost Control Minimize idle time, breakdowns, and consumable usage. Support initiatives on OEE improvement, cycle time reduction, and cost per kg. Contribute to Lean Manufacturing, Kaizen, and TPM projects. 5. Safety & Compliance Enforce safe operating practices and PPE compliance. Support plant certification requirements (ISO/IATF, EMS). Performance Metrics (KPIs ) Production adherence (% to plan). Yield (%) = (Good Castings ÷ Total Castings) × 100. Metal recovery ratio (%). Rejection rate (% of total production). OEE improvement (%). On-time delivery (% adherence). Energy consumption per kg of casting. Shift discipline & manpower productivity. Safety compliance . Qualification & Experience Qualification : Diploma / BE – Mechanical / Production / Metallurgy. Experience : 8–15 years in aluminium die casting, with at least 3–5 years in a supervisory/lead role. Preferred : Experience in automotive or precision casting with IATF environment
