Normally, none, unless they get assigned to supervise some sort of work detail. There may be a couple exceptions. Machine gunners would be the first line supervisors for the remainder of their gun teams, which, depending on the unit strength and how they compose their platoon, would be themselves and either an assistant gunner or an assistant gunner and an ammo bearer. Same thing with mortar crews.
A Specialist who is about to be promoted laterally to Corporal or is about to be promoted up a grade to Sergeant might be placed as a fire team leader. A fire team is supposed to be four personnel, including the team leader.
A Specialist may also get to be a "Corporal for a day". Specialist and Corporal are the same pay grade (E4), and many promotions to Corporal are unofficial and done at unit level. Thus, if a unit needs an NCO to supervise Charge of Quarters or Staff Duty, they might pin Corporal stripes on a Specialist for the duration of that duty, then have them take the Corporal stripes off and go back to being a Specialist at the end of it.
