Job Description

Manufacturing Technician / Machine Operator

2nd or 3rd Shift

Clinton, CT

$18.00–$22.00 per hour, based on experience

2nd Shift: 4:00 PM – 12:00 AM
3rd Shift: 12:00 AM – 8:00 AM

Easy commute from Westbrook, Clinton, Old Saybrook, Madison, Killingworth, Essex, Deep River, Chester, East Lyme, Niantic, and surrounding shoreline communities with convenient access to I-95.

If you're mechanically inclined, comfortable with technology, and looking for a manufacturing role where you'll learn more than just running a machine, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

Our client is seeking a Manufacturing Technician / Machine Operator to join their growing production team. This role combines machine operation, quality control, computer-based processes, and technical manufacturing in a modern production environment.

Unlike many manufacturing positions, you'll do more than simply operate equipment. You'll work with technology, monitor quality, solve problems, and learn specialized manufacturing processes as part of a collaborative team.

Is This You?

  • You enjoy working with both machinery and technology.
  • You have strong mechanical aptitude and like learning how equipment works.
  • You pay close attention to detail and take pride in producing quality work.
  • You're comfortable using computers and electronic devices.
  • You enjoy solving problems and staying productive throughout your shift.
  • You're dependable and committed to working safely.

Bring Your Mechanical Aptitude—We'll Teach the Rest

Previous manufacturing or machine operator experience is helpful, but we're also interested in candidates with mechanical ability, technical curiosity, and a willingness to learn. Experience with quality control, chemicals, or laboratory environments is a plus—but not required.

Why You'll Like This Opportunity

  • $18.00–$22.00 per hour
  • 2nd and 3rd shift opportunities
  • Interesting blend of hands-on production and computer-based work
  • Opportunity to develop technical manufacturing skills
  • Smaller, collaborative team environment
  • Established Connecticut manufacturer
  • Stable, long-term opportunity

What You'll Do

  • Operate and monitor manufacturing equipment and production processes
  • Use computers and electronic devices to support manufacturing operations
  • Perform quality checks and document production information
  • Follow established manufacturing procedures and safety guidelines
  • Monitor equipment performance and communicate any issues
  • Help maintain a clean, organized, and efficient work area

What We're Looking For

  • Strong mechanical aptitude
  • Comfortable working with computers and technology
  • Manufacturing or machine operating experience preferred
  • Understanding of quality control processes
  • Chemistry or laboratory experience is a plus
  • Reliable attendance and strong work ethic

Whether you have manufacturing experience, machine operating experience, or simply a strong mechanical aptitude and a willingness to learn, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and discover a manufacturing opportunity that offers variety, technical learning, and the chance to build valuable new skills.
