Job Description

We are looking for a talented High Volume Flywheels Machining- 3rd shift to join our team specializing in Manufacturing for our Cummins Inc. facility in Jamestown, NY.

In this role, you will make an impact in the following ways:
  • Strengthen workplace safety by actively identifying hazards, stopping unsafe work, and promoting a culture where teammates look out for one another.
  • Protect people and the environment through consistent use of PPE, adherence to HSE procedures, and actions that reduce environmental impact.
  • Improve product quality by following standard work, raising concerns early, and supporting inspection activities that prevent defects and reduce cost.
  • Keep production flowing smoothly by performing your assigned tasks reliably, meeting role expectations, and maintaining a clean, organized work area.
  • Support continuous improvement by contributing ideas that enhance safety, quality, efficiency, and overall process performance.
  • Build operational excellence by learning and applying the Cummins Operating System (COS) and adapting to changing manufacturing needs.
  • Strengthen team performance through clear communication, collaboration, and helping peers maintain consistent process execution.
  • Grow the organization's capability by completing required training, developing your skills, and participating in initiatives that improve employee development.


Responsibilities

To be successful in this role you will need the following:
  • Strong collaboration habits - Build trust with teammates, share information openly, and work toward shared goals rather than individual wins. Success in manufacturing is collective, not solo.
  • Clear, adaptable communication - Tailor your communication to who you're talking to: peers, support teams, or leadership. Make your messages simple, direct, and timely so work keeps moving smoothly.
  • A customer-first mindset - Understand how your work affects the end customer. Even in a non-production support role, your accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail directly influence product quality and customer satisfaction.
  • Commitment to self-development - Seek out training, ask questions, and look for stretch opportunities. Growth here comes from being curious, coachable, and willing to learn new processes or tools.
  • Proactive safety awareness - Model safe behaviors, speak up when something looks wrong, and take action to prevent injuries. Safety is a culture you help build every day.
  • Ownership of your work area and tasks - Keep your space clean, follow standard work, and take responsibility for doing tasks correctly the first time. Reliability is a major success factor in manufacturing environments.
  • Awareness of how your actions impact others - Your work affects upstream and downstream processes. Being dependable, consistent, and mindful of quality helps the entire operation run smoothly.
  • A mindset of continuous improvement - Look for small ways to make processes safer, faster, or more efficient. Even minor improvements add up and show that you're invested in the team's success.
