• Help maintain inventory accuracy by restocking parts and communicating shortages.
• Maintain records and documentation related to production activities.
• Work closely with teammates to improve efficiency and deliver high-quality products.
• Operate forklifts or pallet jacks as needed to move materials and equipment.

What We're Looking For

• Experience using tools and machinery in an assembly, mechanical, or light industrial environment.
• Ability to read work instructions and basic blueprints.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.
• Ability to lift up to 50 pounds.
• Ability to work independently while also contributing to a team environment.
• Forklift experience is preferred but not required.
• High school diploma or GED required.

• Healthcare, dental, paid time off, and company-paid life and AD&D insurance
• Opportunities to work on unique, custom-designed projects
• A collaborative team environment focused on safety, quality, and innovation

At PowerPusher, we believe in teamwork, accountability, and continuous improvement. If you enjoy building products, tackling new challenges, and seeing your work make an impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and help us move the world-one project at a time.
