Shifts:

  • 2nd Shift: 2:00 PM – 10:00 PM
  • 3rd Shift: 10:00 PM – 6:00 AM

If you’re looking for a stable manufacturing role with real earning potential and a clean work environment, this is the kind of opportunity people don’t leave.

We’re hiring Manufacturing Associates to join a high-performing manufacturing team where precision, consistency, and teamwork matter.

What you’ll be doing

  • Assemble automotive components in a structured, fast-paced environment. Some Machine Operator roles are available BOE
  • Perform quality checks to ensure every part meets standards
  • Operate equipment safely and efficiently
  • Work alongside a team that supports each other and hits production goals together

What you bring

  • Previous manufacturing or assembly experience a real plus but not required for all positions. Strong stable work history preferred. 
  • High School Diploma or GED will be verified
  • Strong attention to detail and pride in your work
  • Dependability - you show up and get it done
  • Ability to work overtime is required 

Why people stay here

  • Climate-controlled facility (no extreme heat or cold)
  • Clear path to permanent hire with a pay increase to $20.10/hr
  • Consistent schedules on 2nd or 3rd shift
  • Team-oriented environment where your work is valued

If you’re ready for something steady, with growth potential and a better work environment than most manufacturing roles, this is worth a look.

Apply today to get started.

A recruiter will connect with you to discuss the role in more detail. We look forward to speaking with you.
