• Maintain a clean and organized work area, including the production floor, yard, and equipment.
• Frequently lift and move materials weighing up to 50 pounds as part of daily tasks.

• Forklift experience is required, including safely loading and unloading materials onto trucks, conveyors, racks, and pallets.
• 2+ years of experience in a high-volume production or manufacturing environment is required.

Employees and their families receive comprehensive medical, dental, vision, and basic life insurance coverage, supporting both health and financial security. Team members can earn a monthly performance-based bonus of up to 6% tied to key performance indicators such as production, safety, and quality, with recent averages providing meaningful additional income. In addition to monthly bonuses, there is a profit-sharing program with a multiplier based on company performance, creating opportunities for substantial annual payouts. The retirement program includes a robust 401(k) plan with a match up to 7%, and the company contributes 4% even if employees do not personally contribute, helping build long-term financial stability. The work culture emphasizes teamwork, reliability, and cross-training, giving employees the chance to learn multiple areas of the operation and grow their skills over time.

Work Environment

This role is based in a metal roofing machine shop with approximately 15–20 employees, creating a close-knit, team-oriented environment. The shop is very clean and organized, with operations that include both indoor production work and periodic tasks in the outdoor yard, so you should be comfortable working both inside and outside. The facility can be loud due to machinery, and ear plugs are required; raised voices are common to communicate over the noise, so you should feel comfortable in a high-noise setting. The shop door remains open, which means the temperature reflects the seasons and can be hot in the summer and cold in the winter. You will regularly work with industrial equipment such as shears, press brakes, roll forming machines, forklifts, and various hand and power tools, following all safety procedures and using appropriate protective gear.
