Some weeks may reach approximately 50 hours, particularly during the initial transition and process improvements. That is a realistic possibility, not a weekly minimum. Significant production disruptions may require early, late, or occasional weekend involvement. We value leaders who raise problems promptly, recommend workable solutions, and take responsibility for execution. Long-term success means building reliable processes and capable backups that reduce recurring emergencies.
