Why Work Here?

This opportunity offers a clear path from contract to potential long-term employment, providing stability for individuals who demonstrate strong performance and reliability.

The environment encourages teamwork, positive attitudes, and continuous improvement, allowing you to contribute ideas and see the impact of your work on essential healthcare products.

Work Environment

You will work in a cleanroom environment within a small team of approximately four employees in a new department. The role is on 2nd shift, Monday through Friday from 3:00 PM to 11:30 PM, with the expectation of overtime or occasional Saturday work as needed. Training begins at 2:00 PM. The cleanroom requires specific attire, including scrubs, a white coat, gloves, a hair net, and the absence of makeup, jewelry, artificial eyelashes, and artificial nails. You must follow gowning and de-gowning procedures and inform the lead before leaving the area for water or restroom breaks, as you will need to re-gown upon return. The environment includes fans to help manage glue fumes, so you should be comfortable working around mild odors that are mitigated by ventilation. The department operates with structured breaks, typically after four hours of work, and you may be asked to float between departments based on production needs. The team culture emphasizes communication, collaboration, and adherence to quality and safety standards in a highly regulated medical manufacturing setting.
