Module Line – Stringer Machine

Job Title: Module Line – Stringer Machine & Team Lead Location:SEZ Falta Employment Type:Full-TimeKey Responsibilities Operate and supervise the stringer machine line within the solar module manufacturing process. Set up machine parameters, monitor performance and adjust ensure optimal output and minimal scrap or breakage. Ensure that production targets (strings/hour, cells/hour, modules/day) are met or exceeded. Lead a team of machine operators with responsibilities including training, shift coordination, task allocation, performance monitoring and feedback. Conduct visual inspections, sample testing and quality checks of strings and modules to ensure compliance with manufacturing and quality standards. Perform routine maintenance, cleaning and basic troubleshooting of the stringer machine to minimise downtime. Maintain accurate production logs, downtime reports, quality defect logs and report key metrics to the production manager. Ensure safety and compliance with all relevant protocols in the manufacturing area (use of PPE, machine guard checks, housekeeping, etc.). Collaborate with cross-functional teams (maintenance, quality assurance, engineering) to implement process improvements, reduce waste, improve yield and optimise throughput. Drive continuous improvement of the module line, for example reducing cell breakage, improving string alignment, reducing machine set-up time, etc.Required Skills & Experience Proven experience (ideally 2-5+ years) operating and managing stringer or tabber-stringer machines in solar module or solar cell manufacturing environment. Strong understanding of solar cell string-making processes, machine parameters, cell sizes, bus-bar configurations, breakage minimisation etc. Experienced in supervising and leading a small production team, allocating tasks, tracking operator performance, motivating team to achieve targets. Comfortable working in a fast-paced manufacturing environment with shift operations, output targets and quality constraints. Basic mechanical / electrical aptitude—able to monitor machine performance, identify simple faults, coordinate maintenance. Good written and verbal communication skills in English and/or Hindi (Bengali advantageous) to coordinate with multiple stakeholders. Strong commitment to safety, quality, productivity and continuous improvement mindset. Ability to analyse production data and take corrective actions to meet targets, control scrap, and drive yield improvement.Preferred Qualifications Diploma or degree in Mechanical / Electrical / Production Engineering or equivalent manufacturing experience. Prior experience specifically in solar PV module production lines (stringer → lay-up → lamination) would be a strong plus. Familiarity with automation, PLC/HMI machine interfaces, and advanced stringer machines for high-efficiency cells (HJT, TOPCon, half-cut, large format) is desirable. Demonstrated track record of meeting or exceeding team production targets and improving process efficiency.What We Offer A pivotal leadership role in a growing solar manufacturing business, with opportunity to shape and improve production line performance. Competitive remuneration and performance-based incentives linked to production and quality targets. Training and development opportunities in advanced solar manufacturing technologies. A safe, collaborative and inclusive work environment with scope for progression.How to Apply Please submit your updated CV highlighting your experience with stringer/tabber machines and team leadership in a solar manufacturing environment. Include the following: Years of experience operating stringer machines and production output (cells/hour, strings/hour, line throughput). Number of operators supervised and team performance metrics achieved. Key achievements: yield improvement, scrap reduction, downtime reduction, process improvements implemented. Current remuneration and expected salary.Apply via LinkedIn Easy Apply or send to:[career@websolenergy.com] with subject line:“Stringer Machine & Team Lead – Module Line (Kolkata)”#SolarManufacturing #PVModuleProduction #StringerMachineOperator #TeamLead #ProductionSupervisor #ManufacturingJobs #SolarJobs #RenewableEnergyJobs #KolkataJobs #ModuleLineManager #LineLeader #SolarPanelManufacturing #CleanEnergyCareers #ManufacturingLeadership #OperationsManagement
