I’m a detail-focused Cable Tester who ensures end-to-end quality and dependable, safety-first results.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Cable Tester at Crown Lift Trucks, and I’m at my best when setups are precise and troubleshooting is methodical. I set up test boards with the right fixtures, verify current flows end to end, and check for defects that could cause problems later.
Earlier, I built people- and process-focused experience as a Shift Manager in fast food—maintaining food quality and safety, supporting a welcoming customer experience, and managing daily counts and guidance for the crew. I also held quality and direct-support roles (Quality Tech, DSP/DODD), strengthening my ability to handle responsibilities carefully, communicate clearly, and keep standards consistent.
