• Follow cleanliness and 5S practices to maintain an organized and efficient work area.
• Identify opportunities to improve process flow and suggest changes that reduce wasted effort and time.
• Perform and document quality checks as directed by leadership to ensure products meet specifications.
• Inspect products and perform in-process quality checks with careful attention to detail.
• Use computer skills, including Microsoft Word and Excel, to complete production, quality, or reporting tasks.
• Participate as needed in team discussions and decisions that may affect daily work processes.

• Experience working in production, general labor, or machine operation within a manufacturing or assembly environment.
• Ability to operate production and assembly equipment safely and efficiently.
• Proficiency in using small hand tools for assembly tasks.
• Understanding of basic manufacturing production processes and workflows.
• Ability to follow Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and documented work instructions.
• Strong attention to detail for performing and documenting quality checks and inspections.

• Commitment to maintaining a safe work environment and following all safety policies and procedures.
• Capability to verify equipment and tooling calibrations and recognize when preventive maintenance is due.
• Ability to work effectively as part of a team and rotate through multiple tasks.

• Familiarity with 5S principles and workplace organization practices.
• Experience identifying process improvements and contributing to continuous improvement efforts.
• Comfort working with general production and machine operating tasks in a manufacturing setting.
• Ability to adapt to changing production priorities and tasks as needed.

You will join a production environment that values safety, teamwork, and continuous improvement. The culture encourages employees to share ideas for improving processes and reducing waste, creating opportunities to have a direct impact on how work gets done. You can develop a broad skill set by rotating through different tasks and using a variety of tools and equipment. The organization supports structured training and clear procedures, helping you build confidence and grow your capabilities over time.

Work Environment

This role operates in a manufacturing environment with exposure to fumes, chemicals, temperature changes, and other typical production conditions. Personal protective equipment (PPE), such as safety glasses and other safety gear, is required as specified by safety protocols. The position involves standing for up to 10 hours per shift and repeatedly lifting, pushing, pulling, and carrying up to 50 pounds throughout the day. You will frequently bend, twist, and move materials as part of normal duties.
