IMMEDIATE HIRING!!!!!! $17.25-$18.25/HR - General Production Worker

Job Description

This role supports the production of precision metallic seals used in aerospace and other high-performance applications. You will operate specialized equipment, perform basic quality checks, and handle small metal components in a clean, low-stress, and highly repetitive manufacturing environment. The position offers opportunities to grow into more advanced machine operation, welding, quality inspection, and other technical roles.

Responsibilities

• Operate roll formers and polishing lathes to create metal seals, most of which are small and fit in the hand.
• Load sheet metal bands onto roll-former machines, use a foot pump to run the machine, and form metal into circular seals.
• Inspect parts as they are manufactured, maintaining a cycle time of approximately 10 seconds per part and repeating the process consistently.
• Polish seals using sandpaper, either by hand or with a polishing machine, to achieve the required finish.
• Support the shearing department by cutting metal for welders as needed.
• For larger seals (up to approximately 8 feet in diameter), roll and form seals, take precise measurements using pi-tape and calipers, and ensure parts meet tight tolerances.
• Assist with machine setup and tool adjustments for large seal production, using math skills to calculate results down to the thousandth decimal place.
• Operate semi-automatic TIG welding equipment to weld thin strips of sheet metal into metal bands, aligning seams, initiating the weld cycle, and repeating the process.

Work Environment

The facility specializes in engineered metallic seals used in jet engines and other high-performance applications such as lasers, drilling equipment, and environments involving extreme temperatures, pressures, or oxygen-sensitive conditions. Production takes place across three adjacent buildings: one focused on high-quantity batch parts and another dedicated to more customized, one-off seals made to specific customer requirements. The work environment is very clean, well lit, and primarily light duty, with most positions being seated and requiring only minimal lifting, typically between 5 and 10 pounds. Employees often work near other machine operators and may socialize while still maintaining productivity, and the use of headphones is generally allowed, contributing to a low-stress atmosphere with minimal micromanagement. Bi-annual eye exams and vision tests are part of the standard practice to ensure employees can detect fine defects and maintain high quality standards. Equipment in use includes roll formers, polishing lathes, shearing machines, semi-automatic TIG welders, and a range of precision measuring tools such as calipers, micrometers, depth gauges, pi-tapes, and magnifier loupes. The work is extremely repetitive, involving consistent processes throughout the day, and the dress code aligns with typical light manufacturing expectations, emphasizing safety, cleanliness, and practicality for handling small metal parts and operating machinery.
