• Follow detailed work instructions and standard operating procedures to maintain consistency and quality.
• Work collaboratively with team members to meet production goals and maintain a positive, team-oriented environment.

• Ability to read and use a tape measure accurately and follow blueprints or basic drawings.

Why Work Here?

You will join a facility that is actively growing and offers significant opportunities for internal advancement into more skilled positions, making it an excellent place to build a long-term career. The organization supports employees with medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan with company matching, tuition reimbursement programs, paid time off, and paid parental leave opportunities. Employee assistance and wellness programs further reinforce a culture that values development, well-being, and work-life balance, providing a strong foundation for motivated, mechanically inclined individuals who want more than just a job.

Work Environment

This role is based in a prefabrication manufacturing facility that is not climate-controlled, so temperatures vary with the seasons; heat is provided during colder months, but there is no air conditioning. Employees work a minimum of 48 hours per week on a set schedule: Monday through Thursday from 5:30 AM to 4:00 PM, and Friday from 5:30 AM to 1:30 PM. The environment is industrial and hands-on, requiring consistent use of personal protective equipment, including steel-toed boots, a hard hat, safety vest, and safety glasses. Workers provide their own steel-toed boots, while all other required PPE is supplied on the first day of orientation. Dress and equipment must be suitable for an active manufacturing floor where safety, durability, and readiness for physical work are essential.
