Seacoast Embroidery Inc is seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Production Printer Specialist to join our growing team in Atlantis, FL. As a leader in the uniform and custom apparel industry, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, precision branding for our clients.

We are looking for a technical expert who isn’t just familiar with the hardware, but understands the artistry and digital preparation required to produce a flawless final product.

You will be responsible for the end-to-end production process across multiple printing platforms. This isn't just a "push-button" job; you will be managing files, maintaining equipment, and ensuring color accuracy across various substrates.

• Direct-to-Film (DTF) Printing: Manage the printing, powdering, and curing process for high-quality apparel transfers.
• UV Printing: Operate UV flatbed printers for hard goods, signage, and promotional products.
• Laser Engraving/Printing: Setup and execute precision laser projects for uniforms and accessories.
• Pre-Press & Design: Use the Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop and Illustrator) to prepare, resize, and color-correct artwork for production.
• Equipment Maintenance: Perform daily/weekly maintenance on printers to ensure peak performance and minimize downtime.
• Quality Control: Inspect finished products for color consistency, alignment, and durability.

Experience is required for this position. We need a specialist who can hit the ground running with minimal technical training on the machinery.

• Schedule: Full-time, Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM .

• Client Communication: Act as a technical point of contact for clients. You must be able to communicate effectively and professionally both verbally and via email to discuss project specifications and timelines.

Mock-ups & Proofing: Create professional digital mock-ups and proofs using the Adobe Suite for client approval before production begins.

• Physical Demands: Must be able to stand for extended periods of time while operating machinery and managing production workflows.
• Software Mastery: Proficient in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop . You must be comfortable working with vector files, layers, and color profiles to create accurate proofs.
• Technical Expertise: Proven experience operating UV printers, DTF systems, and Laser engravers.
• Communication Skills: Professional demeanor when working with customers to finalize designs and manage expectations.
• Detail Obsessed: You notice the small things—a slight color shift or a 1mm misalignment—and you fix it before it reaches the customer.
