Work Environment

The role is based in a manufacturing facility that includes a foundry, so temperatures can become high, especially during peak operations. Much of the equipment is older, and maintenance work frequently involves oily and greasy components, requiring comfort with hands-on, sometimes dirty tasks. The position is on 3rd shift, Sunday through Thursday, from 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., with training initially provided on a 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. schedule. Weekend work is mandatory but rotates among team members, and employees can expect to work approximately two weekends per month. Time-and-a-half pay applies to weekend work, with double-time available when working on Sundays, and a shift premium applies for 3rd shift. The environment is highly industrial, with regular exposure to robotics, CNC machinery, forge presses, ovens, conveyors, hydraulics, pneumatics, and high-voltage electrical systems. Appropriate personal protective equipment is required, and employees are expected to follow all safety protocols and dress suitably for a hot, heavy industrial, and foundry setting.
