Job Description:

Join a growing manufacturing team where you'll play a key role in preparing metal parts for the painting and finishing process.

No advanced technical skills are required, making this a great opportunity for individuals looking to build manufacturing experience and develop new skills.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Hang and remove metal parts from racks and conveyor systems to prepare them for painting and powder coating.
  • Inspect parts for quality and ensure they are positioned correctly for the finishing process.
  • Move and organize materials throughout the production area to keep workflow running smoothly.
  • Perform visual quality checks and identify any damaged or defective parts.
  • Work with team members to meet daily production goals and customer deadlines.

  • Assist in other production and material handling duties as needed.

Skills & Qualifications:

  • Ability to stand, walk, and stay active throughout the shift.
  • Ability to lift and move materials up to 50 lbs.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.
  • Positive attitude and willingness to learn.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
  • Previous manufacturing experience is helpful but not required.

Why Employees Enjoy This Role:

  • Steady, full-time work in a stable manufacturing environment.
  • Opportunity to gain valuable production and manufacturing experience.
  • Active position that keeps you moving throughout the day.
  • Supportive team culture with on-the-job training.
  • Clean, organized work environment with a strong focus on employee safety.
