- Follow established procedures, work instructions, and all safety protocols.
- Complete routine production tasks and make basic decisions using standard operating procedures.
- No prior experience required—training provided.
- Ability to follow detailed instructions and work safely in a manufacturing setting.
- Mechanical aptitude and an eagerness to learn fabrication processes.
